Adding a finisher to your Martial arts Workout will provide a great challenge both physically and mentally. Fatigue should already be setting in from the rest of your workout and the finisher forces you to give it your all one last time, pushing through that fatigue.
Instead of trying to reinvent your training sessions every time you come across something new, simply make a few tweaks here and there. Adding a finisher to your Martial arts workout can give huge benefits.
It is important to combat athletes to have the ability to fight through the pain of fatigue, it will come to you at some point and when you have been there time after time in training, your mind will help you push through it in competition.
This finisher (The “Ton Up”) was given to us by my former Boxing Trainer - Charlie Marshall. It is really simple yet really effective. It is 100 exercises, hence “Ton-Up” carried out in a sensible order.
These exercises need to be carried out as fast as possible yet keep your form as correct as possible throughout –
10 x Sit-up Twist
10 x Push Up
10 x Squat Thrust
10 x Burpees
10 x Squat Jumps
10 x Knees to Chest
10 x Push Ups
10 x Mountain Climbers
10 x Bent Knee Sit-up
10 x Pike Sit-up
Repeat these again
If you have anything left, do it a third time.
This type of Finisher can be applied to training for any physical sport where physical fatigue is a possibility.
