Kumite Drills – After a warm-up, working through a variety of kumite drills. Aim to replicate the pace of a real sparring match. If you have the room to move, work at all angles. If you don’t have specific kumite drills to practice, piece together combinations (realistic) and work on those.
A) Front Squat – 5 x 5, 30X0, 5# heavier than last week, rest 2 min.
B) Standing Press – 5 x 5, 3111, 2.5# heavier than last week, rest 90s
20 Overhead Walking Lunge @ 45#
20 Sit-up w/ Med. Ball Toss @ 20#
*Use a 45# plate for the lunge. Keep elbows locked, weight straight overhead.
** For med. ball throw, sit a few feet away from a (solid) wall, feet flat on the floor (standard sit-up position). Starting position is back on the ground, arms extended overhead holding on to the med. ball. Bring arms forward to throw the ball towards the wall and use momentum to finish the sit-up. Goal is a strong core contraction. The ball should hit just in front of you and roll back. Grab the ball, reset. Rinse, repeat.
