Local Muscular Endurance …Legs

As part of our on-going series on building local muscular endurance for combat sports conditioning we bring back Jen Sinkler, senior editor at Experience Life Magazine and professional Rugby player. Jen insists that Rugby is a combat sport so I agreed to highlighting some of her workouts here.

This workout can be brutal and make you quite sore for some time after your training session.

This workouts usually consists of 4 rounds :

• 24 Squats
• 24 Jump Squats
• 24 Lunges( we mix up the variations…forward,reverse,lateral)
• 24 Jumping Lunges

I recommend starting with 12 reps of every exercises performed for 1-2 rounds. As your conditioning and tolerance improves work towards the full workout.
