The workout consisted of different squat variations, namely pistols, crane dips (very similar to pistols but IMO with a slightly different feel to them), airborne lunges, lunges to the front and back, bethaks, conventional squats and cossacks. I switched exercises (or sides for the unilateral ones) every minute, and didn't really go for a certain number of reps. The important thing was, to make sure I worked through the whole 12 minutes without stopping (by the way, 12 is just a random number, you're free to work for a longer period of time ;)).
The cool thing about this type of training is, it is highly intensive (of course, only if you put enough effort in it ;)) and effective, meaning, you get a lot of work done during a relativly short period of time. More over, it can easily be adjusted to all levels of strength and conditioning, from beginner to advanced.
Finally, if you design this kind of workout, just make sure to rotate harder exercises (like pistols) with easier ones (bethaks), which will serve as some kind of active rest.
I hope I inspired some of you to try it out or create one by yourself! I'm sure you and your legs (or the body part you choose) will love it, especially the next day ;)
All the best!

Is there an update to your training? Are you still following "convict conditioning"? Will you give us a review of this book?
AntwortenLöschenI recently read that you meditate. Telll us more about it! ;)
Hey, thx for the comment! I never followed CC to the T, but I still use all the exercises except the OAPUs and only do free HSPUs instead of wall supported. I'm also using kettlebells quite a bit.
AntwortenLöschenRegarding meditation, I don't know much about it, just what I read and still need loads (a life ;)) of practice...
