Hello all,
This a workout routine I designed after reading Coach Sommer's book. It's the first time I've designed a "gymnastic routine" so I'm sure it could use some tweaking. My goal for this program is relative strength increases while doing jiu-jitsu training 2-6x per week. I would also like to perform a planche and front lever eventually but that is more of a secondary priority to building a foundation in the FBE's. And just as an FYI, I have access to a well equipped jungle gym w/ PB's, a pull up bar, kettlebells and I have the XR's as well. The exercise order below goes from my weakest body (lower body) parts to the strongest (pushing).
Monday
3x5 of the following:
Weighted Deck Squats
Weighted Knee ups from the Hang
Pull Ups
Weighted Dips on PB
Wednesday
3x5 of the following:
Weighted Deck Jump
HLL (1/2)
Front Lever Row w/ Tuck
Pushups -XR (PPP)
Friday
3x5 of the following:
Pistols
HLL - V to L
Inverted Curl
Maltese (feet on floor in push up position)
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated as I am a complete newbie at this. Please let me know if anyone has any questions.
Best,
RM
