Static

I can barely walk. Yesterday's wrestling leg work was killer and I figured today's workout should be the exact opposite. Going for a wrestler's shot is a dynamic, explosive leg movement. Today we'll be doing static, non-moving exercises.

There's a lot to be said about sitting around doing nothing. I'm all for it! In this case, the sitting around is under intense load. Mostly your body weight. For you heavy weights, these exercises suck! For us tiny people, it's not nearly as bad, but it's easy to add some weight.

So here's what we did today:
30 seconds - pull up bar hang straight
10 seconds of rest

30 seconds - pull up bar hang full pull up
10 seconds of rest
30 seconds - ring hangs straight (your feet are kicked out so it looks like an upside down pushup)
10 seconds of rest
30 seconds - ring hangs, bent arms (REALLY TOUGH)
10 seconds of rest
30 seconds - push up hold straight arms
10 seconds of rest
30 seconds - push up bent arms
10 seconds of rest
60 seconds - Guard hang
Done!

This workout wasn't super tough. The ring hangs with the bent arms were pretty rough on the grips. There was plenty of grunting and groaning to be performed by Mini-Brock and I.

Afterwards we worked on some halfguard and full guard sneakiness. :)

Here's some images!
