Today, I was humbled by the Black Widow workout in the Max Shred program
I did the workout rounds with 60 seconds rest in between each round, but my muscles were gone after the first set of pushups. And for that, I couldn’t even last the full minute.
What did the Black Widow workout consist of?
It contains rounds of pushups, renegade rows, twisting pistons, alternating floor jacks and man makers.
I was thinking that it was a joke by the time I got to the man makers. I was supposed to complete a set of 10, but I couldn’t do it.
Take a look at how one of the rounds looks like when it is completed properly.
Thank you Christopher Fernando for showing us how it is done (lol!)

How can I improve going forward?
I think I will need to improve my mental focus and discipline for a start. It was mentally tough.
Secondly, I think the weights that I started with were too high, so I need to find out my accurate 10-12 weight max. I started with 15kg and eventually went down to 6kg.
For the man makers, I could barely lift my body. I may need to go slower and just make sure that I complete the rep range.
If you are someone that has done the workout, it would be great to get more insight on any strategies that you have used?
