Week 1, Day 1 of Base Building from Tactical Barbell. These workouts are customizable, so what I’m doing is not the “set in stone” moves.
This a strength/endurance cluster workout. The reps adjust up over the next five weeks, but the cluster of exercises stays the same.
3 rounds of 20 reps for each, with ~30 sec between exercises, and about 2 minutes between rounds.
KB swings (28 KG bell)
Push ups
Pull ups
Goblet Squats (16 KG bell)
Ab wheel rollouts
Band Pull aparts (just thrown in as a bonus, not really in the spirit of the program)
Took about 25 minutes to get through this.
Notes:. Probably too ambitious to put pull ups in there. As the reps progress each week up to 50, no way I’ll be able to do that in a fatigued state even if I do rest-pause liberally. I was afraid the goblets were too light, but by the third round certainly not. I am doing them as full, ass-to-grass squats.
I kept the warm up from Pavel’s Simple and Sinister: 5 reps Prying goblet squats with 3 curls at the bottom, 5 bridges, and 5 KB halos. Done three time through.
