Wrestling Workout #2

Partner Workout

Set a time to do a workout with a teammate or friend! Go on video chat to do the workout together (or do it with a family member!)

How it works: One person will do the exercise while the other person rests, and then switch! At all times, someone will be exercising!

1) Push Up Challenge:

Start at 20 push ups. One person will complete their reps while the other counts and rests, then the next person will complete their rest while the first person counts and rests. Then repeat for 19 reps, then 18 reps, and so on until you reach 1 rep each.

2) 5-minute leg blaster:

10 seconds on, 10 seconds off. (Rotate between you and your partner, so one person is always working out).

  • First Minute: Tuck Jumps

  • Second Minute: Side-to-Side two foot jumps

  • Third Minute: Squats

  • Forth Minute: High Knees

  • Fifth Minute: Ali Shuffle

3) Stance Drill:

One person times for 30 seconds and calls out directions while the other person does the drill (for example, sprawl, shoot, down block). Switch. Then repeat twice.

4) 100 ab exercises. Take turns choosing core exercises to complete. (For example, 10 V-Sits). Continue until you and your partner have completed 100 reps each.

5) Watch the same wrestling match. (You can find many on unitedworldwrestling.org under events). Take notes about what each wrestler did well and compare your notes.
