The Tornado Workout

Do you ever wonder how it feels to be knocked down/ stunned or knocked out? I can tell you from first hand experience that you see "butterflies" and your head just "spins". When they catch you on the chin, there is always the chance that you'll get hurt. No matter how good your defensive skills are, you have to cover your bases, you can never be sure. You also have to "train to be dizzy". This workout will will help you withstand dizziness in a fight and not to mention, in everyday life situations. Remember, when the training is tough, all the rest becomes easier. Here's the Tornado Workout, a set of exercises focusing on circuits, intervals, aerobic/ anaerobic and full body activity.

Note: Work your way up. When you feel badly light- headed, stand up straight and breath deeply.
