PLYO-ISO

This workout combines both plyometric and isometric work, and requires no equipment so can easily be done at home.  However these are very challenging exercises requiring a reasonable level of conditioning before attempting, so not suitable for beginners.

I have created this combination with exercises where muscles are under tension without movement (Isometric) and the other exercises where muscles reach maximum strength in the shortest time possible (Plyometric).  A Strength and Power combo.

Workout:

1 minute Plank (hold at top of press-up position) 

10 Clap Push Ups 

30 seconds - hold a deep squat (also known as Horse Stance

1 minute Plank (hold at bottom of press-up position) 

10 Squat Jumps

1 minute (rest)


Repeat the above for 35 minutes
