Want to learn how to combine natural movements into a challenging, full body workout?
Here’s an intermediate-level MovNat Combo Workout, which will help you break a sweat and transform your body while you’re improving your natural movement skills.
Instructions: Repeat the following movements in a circuit fashion 3-5 times (i.e. one after the other with minimal or no rest), keeping your total training time under 20 minutes:
- CRAWL: Balancing Foot Hand Crawl at height – 10 feet (regression: use a lower obstacle, a 2×4, or a line on the ground)
- JUMP: Depth Jump to Slap Landing – 1 rep (regression: lower the starting height of your depth jump)
- VAULT: Single Arm Side Vaults from a walk or run – 2/side = 4 total reps (regression: Two Arm Side Vault from standing)
- CLIMB: Elbow Pull-ups – 5 reps (regression: Double Forearm Side Hang for 5-10 seconds)
- GET UP: Bent Sit to Lateral Half-Kneeling Get Up – 3/side = 6 total reps (regression: elevate your hips by sitting on a block or step)
MovNat Combos are a great way to get a lot of work done in minimal time. Not only are you practicing a handful of natural movements to improve your skill and efficiency, you’re also getting a great workout that will help improve your fitness and conditioning, and reshape your body, too. MovNat Combos are effective as a standalone training session. Or, they make a great finisher at the end of a complete MovNat training session.
