CHARLES BRONSON´S PRISONER WORKOUT

Routine is based on the following 8 exercises:

Push ups
Sit ups
Bodyweight Squats
Squat-thrusts
Burpees
Star Jumps
Step Ups
Hand-stand Push Ups

He advocates a ‘beginners’ program based on one set of ten reps for each exercise and
adding sets and reps in a uniform fashion as quickly as your body will allow, 6 days on, one
day off. I would also add that he worships push ups, in all variations, doing up to 3,000 (three
thousand) a day.
If the ‘routine’ is put on a pedal-stool one would be missing the point though.
The book shows what can be done with minimal complication but maximum commitment and
relentless drive. In other words – it gave me faith.
Unless I have died in my sleep the routine will ALWAYS be completed. According to Charles,
even amputation isn’t an excuse as one can “do exercises on your stumps”.
I made my own routine, but followed the philosophy to the letter.
