Training Idea: Tornando Training

I'd heard about Tornado Training and it seemed kind of fad-y using hurricane balls and, just another take on the same GPP stuff that's hot right now but the article in On Fitness broke it down into five principles make a nice formula for building any bodyweight or lo-fi (couple of dumbbells, a kettle bell or sandbag) workout:
  1. A twist exercise like bicycles
  2. An up/down like a squat
  3. a plyometric exercise like clapping push-ups or box jumps
  4. Keep it fresh and mixed up, even timed versus rep based workout
  5. Can be whole workout or just part of a workout.
Once I've reduced my injuries to nil I'm going to use it as a my template for a month. It looks like fun.
