I Workout

In prison, there isn't much to look forward to, however. Most men in here anticipate going to recreation every day. I personally have taken joy in attending recreation and use my rec periods to play basketball, handball, job, and lift weights.

Over the years, I've switched up my workout but nothing has brought me better results than doing simple pull-ups, dips, push-ups, and sit-ups. I started doing whatever I could and, although my reps and sets weren't much, it conditioned me over time. Now I do ten sets of pull-ups (12 to 15 per set), dips (20 to 25 per set), push-ups (40 to 50 per set), sit-ups (50 per set).

I workout five days a week, two times a day. One workout is the basic ten sets I mentioned above. The other is lifting weights, isolating two muscle groups a time. Working out has been my stress reliever in here and has kept me in good shape and health.

I'm always looking for new tips, ideas, or suggestions to add to my workout schedule so feel free to send you suggestions, advice, or tips.
