The ‘Playing Card’ Workout for Wrestlers
Here’s a unique, fun, killer workout that you can do with a deck of cards and a training partner that will train every wrestling-specific muscle and get you in shape in a hurry. It’s great for something different to mix up your training workouts.
Directions:
* Use all of the cards (with the two Jokers that will be 54 total)
* One wrestlers pulls a card off the top of the deck. The card will correspond with the exercise and number of repetitions listed below.
* As soon as the first wrestler completes the exercise, he then pulls a card for the second wrestler.
* Keep alternating back and forth until the deck is complete.
* You can do this by yourself as well.
FACE CARDS:
Jokers: Bear Crawl 30-40 feet one way, Crab Walk 30-40 feet back
Aces: Burpee/Jumping Squats – 10 reps (reps are counted as ‘one’, ‘two’, ‘three’, ‘ONE’… ‘one’, two’, ‘three’, ‘TWO’… and so on until you reach ten. The last number in the count is when you perform a Jumping Squat)
Kings: Twisting Crunches – 15 to each side
Queens: Back Bridge Pushups – 15
Jacks: One Leg Romanian Deadlift – 10 each side
NUMBERED CARDS:
Black = Pushups – repetitions correspond with number on card
Red = Combat Squats – repetitions correspond with number on card
