Bodyweight Ladder Workout
Here’s the ICON Nutrition Bodyweight Ladder designed by S&C Coach of Proactive Performance, Alex Benson. This is a simple, fun yet challenging workout.
This is our ‘official’ grading criteria for how long it should take you : )
FIREBREATHER: Before 20 mins
STRONG FINISH: Between 20-25 mins
YOU NEED TO TAKE SOME IGNITE NEXT TIME: 25-30 mins
1 set is the below:
Pull up x 1 rep
Olympic Rig Dips* x 2 reps
Press up x 3 reps
Air Squat x 4 reps
*you can substitute Olympic ring dips for normal dips off a bench if you don’t have these at your facility.
You are going to do 10 sets BUT you double the reps each set, ending up on 10 pull-ups, 20 olympic ring dips, 30 press ups, 40 air squats.
So for example, set 2 looks like this:
Pull up x 2 rep
Olympic Rig Dips x 4 reps
Press up x 6 reps
Air Squat x 8 reps
And set 3 looks like this:
Pull up x 3 rep
Olympic Rig Dips x 6 reps
Press up x 9 reps
Air Squat x 12 reps
And so on.
