D
id you watch the video-guide?
If you didn’t see it yet, there is a detailed video that goes through this plan thoroughly. To get a
better understanding of how to apply everything below, I highly recommend you go through it at
least once. If you’ve already watched the video, what are you waiting for… Let’s get started!
Work out
1. Inverted rows (5-12 reps)

2. Plyo-burpees (5-12 reps)

3. Incline Push-ups: 5-12 reps

4. Hollow body hold: 20-40” hold

Sets
Week 1-2: Three rounds/circuits per workout

Week 3-5: Four rounds/circuits per workout

Resting periods
Rest between exercises: 10-15 seconds (start with 15 and adjust along the way)

Rest between circuits/round: 2-3 minutes

Exercise guidelines & alternatives

0. Warm up: As I like to say “If you don’t have time to warm-up, you don’t have time to work out. Click
here to see my detailed warm up guide on YouTube.
1. Inverted rows: Start with minimum five reps. Later on, to make the exercise more difficult, you can
progress to decline rows by elevating the height of your feet (i.e. placing them on a chair).
2. Push-ups: Start with incline push-ups even if you think you can do flat-on-the-floor push-ups. Focus
on perfect form and my mind-to-muscle cues for push-ups. Mastering the push-up this way opens the
gateway to understanding mind-to-muscle techniques and how they can be applied to Bodyweight
training overall.
3. Plyo-burpees: focus on jumping as high as possible (make sure you’ve warmed up properly). If
burpees are too hard for your knees do Wall-sits instead (go for 20-40” holds per set)
4. Core/Hollow-body: If you find the hollow body to complicated, start with planks and get back to the
hollow body once you get bored of planks.
