Exercise of the Day: Atlasthenics Warmup

From My Mad Methods

WRITTEN BY IRONL00 (WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/USER/IRONL00)

Calisthenics + Atlas Stones = Atlasethnics

This the Atlasthenics warmup a combo of calisthenics and tossing the atlas stones in creative ways. One stone weighs 185lbs. the other weighs 230lbs. they will only get heavier and heavier as we adapt. Here i still got my injured right chest couldn't do much. Me and my friend George did a bunch of warmup sets he practiced some moves in between while tossing both stones. This is a basic Atlasthenics warmup to prepare for a severe workout that will last a while.

Caveman Atlas Stone Workout, My Mad Methods Magazine Dec/Jan 2012

This is my next project, how to build those stones (the difficult part) with a rubber coating (the easy part), to avoid smashing the floor to pieces. This will be the kind of strength training equipment we will have when we get our own gym, no machines or dumbbells, only atlas stones, sandbags, kettlebells, clubbells, ropes and sledgehammer and tire. Our own gym? Yes I am planning to find a permanent gym with one of my best friends and offer several types of martial arts, from every corner of the planet, BJJ (Brazil), Aikido (Japan), AMOK! (USA), Kratos Combatives (Denmark, Europe), Practical Combatives (USA), and functional strength training (planet earth).
