Parkour Generations Preparatory Training Regime

Содержание

This ten week training regime is designed to increase your fitness levels and prepare you for the Parkour Generations training camp. It will consist of exercises designed to develop your cardiovascular system, build strength and improve your muscular endurance.

As you progress from week to week, the intensity will gradually increase up until week 9, after which there will be a recovery week designed to allow you plenty of time to rest so you are in good condition but well rested for the camp.

You can use this document as a guideline to make sure you are in good shape or include some of your own exercises in and around the ones listed herein. Regardless of your preparations for the camp, we recommend that you arrive in the best physical condition you can so that you can get the most out of the camp.

With each of the exercises, there are set and rep requirements but if you cannot complete them as specified then break them down in to smaller sets as required, just always try to complete the overall number of repetitions by the end of the training session.

After every training session we recommend that you spend at least 15-20 minutes stretching.
