My planche training is coming along, albeit slowly. Keep in mind here that although I’m extended , I’m also using a bit of a kick to get the upward momentum. As you train this over time, you can kick less, and control the downward phase, slowing it down. These are like negatives, slowly down the release of a contracted muscle, if you’re not strong enough to do the exercise from the start.
One Arm Pullup with Pinchgrip Assist
Continuing where we left off last week with one-arm pullups, we’ll use a pinch grip assist this time, instead of a theraband.
One Arm Pullups with Theraband
To train for the one-arm pullup you want to over many months of training, reduce the weight on the assisting arm, and increase the weight on the primary arm. Here’s one way to do that. Use a theraband on the secondary arm.
Happy New Years 2009
Best of luck & keep to those New Years resolutions to get active and get fit!
