Tom Hiltbrunn Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Hello everyone! Sadly, I have not been able to buy the book yet because of a lack of funds but I have read a lot of the forum topics and have a general idea of how to start. I am just wanting some critique of my routine I have put together. (a little background on me) I became interested in gymnastics after learning how to breakdance. I taught myself to tumble and just like a lot of people out there I thought weights were the way to go when it came to strength but I am happy to say that I have been converted! Here's my workout routine:here's my stats on progressions which I do at the beginning of the workoutProgressions:tuck planche: 6 sets of15 secmanna bent leg straddle: 6 sets of 15 secadvanced tuck FL: 6 sets of 10advanced tuck BL: 6 sets of 10Monday:Ido's Shoulder stabilization routine,Progressions,tuck planche pushups 5 sets of 5tuck FL pullups: 5 sets of 5Full ROM HSPU: 5 sets of 2Chin up + 50 lb: 5 sets of 2Static stretching as a cooldownTuesday: Ido's squat clinic routine,Ido's beginner explosive leg workoutstatic stretchWednesday: Kind of rest/ recovery day. I go tumble with my friends on grass and then work on flexibility.Thursday:Ido's Shoulder stabilization routine,Progressions,Upright rows (100 lb) 5 sets of 5,weighted dips on rings (BW + 45 lb) 5 sets of 5then I do multiplaning exercising.(whatever I feel like working on the day)static stretchFriday: Same as TuesdaySaturday: same as wednesdaySunday: Day of rest hahaSorry if this post is too long but I am just wondering, is this too much? too little? are there other things I should or should not do? Any and all critiques would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 tuck planche pushups 5 sets of 5tuck FL pullups: 5 sets of 5Full ROM HSPU: 5 sets of 2Chin up + 50 lb: 5 sets of 2 I'd rather see you do 1 of each pull/press exercise per day, especially at this intensity. Kinda skeptical about the upright row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hiltbrunn Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 Sorry for the misunderstanding, with the upright row I am doing 100 lb with a barbell (not BW). I am not sure how else to hit that motion without the weights. I have done the upside down pullups on rings but I am not sure how to progress with those. So you think that I am going too intense? How would you recommend I set it all up? Thanks for the reply by the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I would split the weighted chins and HSPU to Tu/F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
