21 Dec Paul Oneid – Off Season Week 1

I had knee arthroscopy on Dec 4, 2015 to remove a torn meniscus, as well as a partial lateral release to loosen up my IT band. Training right now is focused on one thing – GETTING HEALTHY.

The same warm-up was performed everyday:

• Hip circle – 200 steps
• Supine alternating hip hikes – x30
• Side lying clams – x20ea
• Lateral leg raise – x20ea
• Single leg glute bridge – x10ea
• Glute bridge iso hold – x:30s
• Big 2 (bird dog/ mcgill situps)
• Pallof Press (I prefer this to the rolling plank because it lets me feel the twist in my hips and correct it)
• TKE Iso-hold – 10x5secx 2-4sets
• On upper days
  • Band dislocations – 2×20
  • Band Pull aparts – 2×20
  • Mace Swings – lots
  • Pushups with scap protraction – 2×15
  • T-Spine mobilization – 2×5 holds

• On Lower Days

• Single leg RDL – 2x15ea
• Hip Airplanes – 2x15ea
• Bulgarian Split Squat – 2x15ea
• Squat Hold – 2x:30s

I implement 10/20/Life a little bit differently than the other team members. I prefer to work off percentages, even in the off-season as I find it keeps me honest and gives me a specific goal for each training session. Weights are light and I am trying to get my work capacity up. This is the beauty of 10/20/Life – It is a philosophy, NOT a cookie cutter program!
