Convict Conditioning

[EventHorizon]

Has anyone tried the techniques or able to do the master techniques in this book?

I've been doing the routine for 6 weeks now and it's very effective in increasing strength. It's also a very low probability of injury method and infact has helped repair a rotator cuff issue I've for ages.

And before anyone says it, the book isn't about conditioning your ass for the gang rape in the showers !!!

I just assumed that's what it was about... you can imagine my disappointment...

I haven't tried this, but it comes pretty well reviewed and I've heard lots of people speak well of it. If I was stuck in prison I'd be using that book for workouts. That is essentially what the book was written for

Re: Convict Conditioning

I just finished doing some bridge exercises during lunch. This routine is no joke, even the 'easier' exercises. Everything has to be done under control - slow and pauses at the top/peak contraction of the movement. It's not easy. The one that's going to give me the most grief is the one-legged full squat. I just can't get below 90-degree knee bends without losing balance or my heel coming up...

I initially started this as a break from my usual kettlebell circuit training that I do at home but I think I might make this my main strength routine for a while and use the kettlebells/rower as interval-based cardio.
