Lazy Monday Wake-up

Bodyweight/Flex/Mobility Training

This ROD is frequently requested by many of the members. They found it not only challenging but helped them in gaining mobility and flexibility. This is a classic NLP routine.

45 MAX effort and 15 seconds rest. 2 rounds of the following 8 exercises: No Rest

  1. Low Jumping Jacks
  2. Plank Climbers (alternating lead arm)
  3. Single-arm overhead deep squat (right)
  4. Single-arm overhead deep squat (left)
  5. Close grip Burpee into sumo stance jump
  6. Diamond leg sit-ups
  7. Push-ups
  8. Plank (straight arm) to diagonal knee tucks to elbows

1 minute rest & then:

2 rounds of 8 cycles of 20 seconds MAX effort and 10 seconds rest of the following:

  1. Dynamic Squats x 2 sets
  2. Mountain Climbers x 2 sets
  3. Evil Jumps x 2 sets
  4. Burpees x 2 set

Today we will be integrating a new movement pattern into the warmup. The single leg RDL (romanian deadlift). We believe it’s a very important exercise for many reasons. First of all, a couple of studies have shown that sensorimotor training led to improved locomotive power production. We believe that the single leg RDL can be placed in the warm-up every single day, where you can mix it up, for example employing a reaching single leg RDL with a medball, which is the method we will be doing to introduce it to you.
