| September 2024 | Calisthenics Progressions | Continue progressing with calisthenics. Aim for 3 sets of 8-12 reps for push-ups and assisted pull-up variations. Start working on hanging holds and scapular retractions to improve pull-up strength. | Push-ups (Full) | 8-12 | 3 | Push-ups |
| Assisted Pull-ups (Decreasing Assistance) | 8-12 | 3 | Assisted Pull-ups | |||
| Hanging Holds | 20-30 sec | 3 | Hanging Holds | |||
| October 2024 | Flexibility and Mobility | Incorporate stretching and mobility exercises to improve flexibility and prevent injuries. Focus on areas like hip flexors, hamstrings, and shoulders. Yoga or mobility routines can be beneficial. | Yoga | 20-30 min | - | - |
| Hip Flexor Stretches | 30 sec - 1 min | 3 | - | |||
| Hamstring Stretches | 30 sec - 1 min | 3 | - | |||
| November 2024 | Bodyweight Circuit Training | Implement circuit training with bodyweight exercises (push-ups, squats, lunges, planks, mountain climbers) for endurance and strength. Aim for 3-4 rounds with minimal rest between exercises. | Push-ups | 10-15 | 3-4 | Push-ups |
| Squats | 10-15 | 3-4 | Squats | |||
| Lunges | 10-15 | 3-4 | Lunges | |||
| December 2024 | High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) | Integrate HIIT workouts to enhance cardiovascular fitness and burn fat. Alternate between periods of high-intensity exercise (e.g., sprinting, burpees) and active recovery. Start with 20-30 second intervals. | Sprinting | 20-30 sec | - | - |
| Burpees | 20-30 sec | - | - | |||
| January 2025 | Advanced Calisthenics | Focus on mastering advanced bodyweight exercises such as handstand push-ups, pistol squats, and strict pull-ups. Utilize progressive overload techniques like adding weight vests or resistance bands for assistance. | Handstand Push-ups | 5-8 | 3 | Handstand Push-ups |
| Pistol Squats | 5-8 | 3 | Pistol Squats | |||
| Strict Pull-ups | 3-5 | 3 | Strict Pull-ups | |||
| February 2025 | Strength and Endurance Fusion | Combine strength and endurance training with complex exercises (e.g., burpee pull-ups, squat jumps). Aim for high-rep sets with short rest periods to improve both muscular endurance and strength. | Burpee Pull-ups | 8-12 | 3-4 | Burpee Pull-ups |
| Squat Jumps | 15-20 | 3-4 | Squat Jumps | |||
