Template for a Rowdy week

I am still unable to live my life how I want. But I know people who would like to live a Rowdy like life. As most people have a full time job I will give you the working Rowdy version of what used to be a typical week for me. That way you can pick and choose what you would like to do, and maybe by you living in a rowdy style, it will give me the hope and energy to make it to the time when I can too.

-upon waking up, before anything else in the morning. 50 jumping jacks, 50 body weight squats, 25 push ups, 50 sit ups. all in a row, non-stop till you finish. do this 3x during the week.

-go for a motorcycle ride. even better if with friends. but make sure you go fast enough that you have to really focus and your heart is racing.

-get on my mnt bike and do urban trials. find all the features around where I live and ride them. jump off of stuff, down stairs, wall rides, explore alleys and short cuts. basically act like you're 8 again and on your bmx bike.

-look at maps or get on the internet and find something within a hour of your house you have never been to. go there. who cares if it sucks, now you know. and you went somewhere new!

-go to the beach and run bare foot in the sand. you calves will hate you. your toes might get blistered. but all of these things will make you better for it.

-do the "challenge". this is ultra popular in my family and with some of my friends. we normally call it the family olympics and it is taken with quite a bit of seriousness as we are all very competitive. basically you go to a park with some good toys and such and one person does something. then everyone else has to do it. you keep track of who could do the most of the challenges. whether you picked it or not it doesn't matter, just who did the most successfully. mix it up, be creative. it is kind of like playing the game "horse" from basketball, but with your body!

-if i don't know anyone to play with, i'll go and just hit the tennis ball against the wall till i am tired. or tired of chasing the balls i missed.

There you go! All things that can be done in two hours or less, so you can even do them on work days if you are really motivated. Or don't have little kids to worry about. I hope you enjoy doing a little bit of Rowdy this week.
