Today I repeated the pull-up/push-up superset for 10 minutes. Last time I did this for sets of 2 reps on each exercise and did as many as I could in 10 minutes. I accumulated 40 reps. This time I did 3 reps on each for 10 minutes and I got 57 pull-ups and 54 push-ups. Then I did some other stuff. Here’s how it all went:
- super set 1
- pull-up x 3
- push-up x 3
- AMRAP (As many reps as possible) in 10 minutes
- super set 2
- anti-rotation cable press: 15 lbs. x 5 sec hold x 5 reps x 5 sets
- Y-T-A-W shoulder patterns: 10 lbs x 5 reps x 5 sets
- Reactive Neuromuscular Training (RNT) band split squat: to exertion (15-20 reps) x 2 sets
- My right knee often wants to cave in since there’s no ACL to help stabilize it.
- This exercise is done to help create more knee stability.
- I use high reps (10-20) for endurance and pattern repetition rather than strength.
- I try and do something like this every day, ideally throughout the day. I’m “practicing” more than I’m “working out.”
- It looks like this, but instead of a person holding a band, I looped the band around a nearby support.
