New Sequence

Corta Capim Spin into QDR Rotational Push Up



This sequence of Floreio movements is comprised by two movements we have previously explored:

Corta Capim Spin



QDR Rotational Push Ups Advanced



Combining those movements into one small Floreio piece produces a beautiful flow of movement, this is only the beginning, many more interesting possibilites lies ahead of us in our Floreio exploration.

After a full Corta Capim Spin, place both arms down on the floor and lower your upper body into QDR position, sideways. The straight leg shouldn't touch the floor, but 'sweep' the other leg into the QDR Rotational Push Up movement and back into squat. This 'Sweep' produces the beauty in this sequence. Work it hard until you get the timing and control right.
The secret is the timing of the transition, and achieving a good control of both movements seperatly first.

Strength and Conditioning - Gymnast's Extended Set
Today we are going to use a training system popularized by Charles Poliquin - The Gymnast's Extended Set.
This is a pulling routine which is comprised by a couple of Pull Up variations performed one after the other with little rest in between, and going from the most difficult variation to the easiest one - from a biomechanical advantage perspective.

You start in a wide grip pull up (pronated grip - pinkies facing out) and perform as many reps as possible, stop one rep before failure. Use a wide grip and make sure you go from complete lockout of the elbows to middle of the throat to the bar, or even better, chest touching the bar. The descent of each repetition should be controlled and take at least 3 seconds. (not 1,2,3 as most of you count, but 1-missisippi, 2-missisippi, 3-missisippi)

Rest 10 seconds.

Perform as many reps as possible using shoulder width pull ups, (pronated grip - pinkies facing out) again, 3 seconds each descend, middle of the throat/chest to the bar and complete lockout at the bottom of each rep.

Rest 10 seconds.

Perform as many reps as possible using shoulder width chin ups, (supinated grip - pinkies facing inside) again, 3 seconds each descend, middle of the throat/chest to the bar and complete lockout at the bottom of each rep.


Rest 10 seconds.

Perform as many reps as possible using close grip chin ups, (supinated grip - pinkies facing inside) again, 3 seconds each descend, middle of the throat/chest to the bar and complete lockout at the bottom of each rep.

Rest 180 seconds and repeat for the desired number of sets.

This pulling routine is great for our goals, to balance all the pushing motions we are using in our Floreio workouts, in a short, compact and effective manner.
If you cannot do more than 5 wide grip pull ups, I advice you to work one of the four chin/pull up variations above, for sets of as many reps as possible, one rep before failure, performed for sets, instead of the Gymnast's Extended Set - which is a more advanced training routine.
Choose a chin/pull up variation that allows you to perform 4-6 reps.

Sweet! Now I have a handstand push up rep ladder (from Coach Sommer) and a great looking scheme for pull ups.
I am trying this at the gym in 15 minutes!
