•
1h 10m
Research suggests that pyramid training may help increase muscle size and enhance muscular endurance and power. Pyramid training is a style of training designed to repeat exercises and exercise combinations in a way to either to slowly increase or decrease resistance challenges for greater strength gains.
This pyramid training workout is designed to overload your muscles to create metabolic stress in muscle tissue that encourages growth. We will be performing some increasing and decreasing pyramid schemes. Make sure to have 1-2 TheraBand and a thigh band. Bodyweight can be used as well.
We will start light and gradually increase the resistance and reps.
This workout will consist of three sets of each. I will be using a medium and heavy thigh band for my lower body. I will use a light and medium TheraBand for my upper body.
Lower Body: Suitcase Squats, static lunges, hip extension, Bridges
Upper Body: Chest Fly, Lat Pull, Lateral Raise, Bicep Curl, Tricep extension with Pull apart
We will finish with some core exercises.
