WORKOUT: Core

After seven years of training hard in Martial Arts, I had a solid core that could ricochet bullets.  I had a defined line down my stomach; however, I didn’t have any of the other definitions that I wanted to gain.  I took to many Martial Art publications over the years, and one day I found an article that seemed like it was written just for me.  It made such an impact on my training, and I wish I could remember the author to give him credit. 

He helped us adopt a three-part perspective.  The first was to be healthy inside out.  That translated to the fact that a strong core makes a healthier person.  Secondly, we could isolate different parts of our abdomen; by placing our legs and feet into different positions.  Last but not least, if we followed this regimen, we could take our striking power through the roof.  

 This system worked so well that within just a few months, I noticed more definition in my midsection as well as more power released in every strike I fired.  As the years passed, I continued to read, research, and share this format.  I’ve also updated the structure to bring us better results. 

Below is the daily format as well as the individual sets.  You can start by performing ten repetitions for each exercise across three days.  Then take a rest day and advanced your repetitions to 11 for another three days.  Continue this format until you reach 20 repetitions, which will mean it is time for you to move to the intermediate level. 

FORMAT:

Day One - 10 reps

Day Two - 10 reps

Day Three - 10 reps

Day Four - Rest

Day Five - 11 reps

Day Six - 11 reps 

Day Seven - 11 reps

Day Eight - Rest

Etc.
