Olympic Ring Training Program

Well I’m back from my vacation in the tropics of Northern Queensland (Australia) and apart from throwing myself out of a perfectly good airplane at 14.000 feet, I got plenty of rest and relaxation.

While I was away I went four days without having a workout and was getting restless so I asked a few locals where the closest gym was, unfortunately the closest gym was a 90 minute walk away and there were no trains or buses - not good!

It was a good thing I took my Olympic rings with me, I got up early the next morning and went to the park to find myself a tree branch I could hang them off.

One of the best things about the Olympic rings is that you can train with them anywhere and at anytime, plus they'll get you incredibly strong (just take a look at the male gymnasts at the Olympics).

Going four days without training I felt fresh and smashed out a quick 30 minute bodyweight workout.

Here is the workout...

Chin ups (overhand) 2 x 10

Hanging knee raise 2 x 10

Olympic Ring push ups 2 x 10

Single leg squat 2 x 10

Olympic Ring planche 2 x 60seconds

1 leg hip ext. with 1 foot on ball (or coconut) 2 x 10

30 seconds between exercises

This workout will take you around 30 minutes and works every major muscle in the body, they’re great for strength and building lean functional muscles.

Let me know how you get on.

Train Hard!

Dan.
