Mike Tyson

INSPIRED AT-HOME TRAINING PROGRAM

PROGRAM SUMMARY
A quick and efficient at-home training plan you can quickly do during your lunch break, in
the morning before work, between classes, or whenever you have a spare 30-45 minutes!
This program is based on Mike Tyson’s legendary 5500+ rep bodyweight plan!

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Starting a fitness journey can often be overwhelming and complex, especially for
beginners. Recognizing this challenge, I have designed straightforward at-home training
plans. These plans are ideal for newcomers to ease into working out effectively, as well as
for those with some experience who wish to continue building muscle and fitness without
the need for expensive gym visits.

My inspiration for these plans came from learning about the simplicity of Mike Tyson's
training during his peak years. Tyson's routine was uncomplicated yet effective, involving
boxing, running, skipping, bodyweight exercises, heavy/speed bag work, and pad training –
devoid of intricate weight-lifting schedules or complex warm-up drills. Notably, Tyson was
known for his rigorous 5500+ rep bodyweight routine, performed six days a week.

From this inspiration, I've adapted Tyson's regimen into two tailored versions: a beginner-
friendly plan for those new to exercise, and an intermediate plan for those with some
training experience. Both plans are designed to progressively increase in difficulty over an
8-week period, providing a balanced and accessible approach to fitness.

AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) Circuits: These are about doing as many rounds as
possible of a circuit of exercises in a certain amount of time. You go at your own pace, take
breaks when needed, and try to do more rounds each week. It's a great way to see your
progress and build endurance.

Workouts for Time: Here, you have a fixed number of rounds to complete, but you try to do
them as fast as you can. Rest when necessary, but aim to finish quicker each time. This
helps improve your speed and overall fitness.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED-
Beginner Program: The beauty of the beginner program lies in its simplicity. The only
equipment you'll need is a backpack or any sturdy bag, coupled with books or other weighty
items to add resistance. This straightforward approach ensures you can start your fitness
journey with ease, without the need for specialized gym equipment.

Intermediate Program: As you progress to the intermediate level, the equipment needs
remain minimal, yet the workouts stay effective. You will need just two items: a skipping
rope for cardiovascular and coordination training, and a door frame pull-up bar for
strength development. These tools are essential for elevating your workout routine, while
still keeping it convenient and accessible from home.
