Looks like this one has been in the archives for a while.

My training is pretty consistent

Or at least I would like it to be

I'm consistently doing some combination of two things:

1. Violence. Moving my body or external weight as quickly as I can and as heavy as I can quickly. This, combined with low rest times, makes for fantastic S&C circuits which transfer perfectly to combat sports. This type of programming gets a bad rap by a lot of combat sport S&C coaches as more of a gimmick than anything, and to me that sentiment only shows a coach's lack of originality. If you move up in either mechanical difficulty or weight consistently, then we still meet all of the qualifiers for traditional training with the added benefit of endurance. Are kettlebell jerks inherently good exercises? No. Of course not. Are touch and go sets of five with 79 pounds torching for the shoulders as part of a circuit? 100%

2. Movement. When I'm exhausted or just low on time, I'll work my way through patterns where the point of failure isn't weight, but coordination. This leads to an almost meditative effect due to the necessity of intrinsic motivation. A hand stand feels good not because of some arbitrary notion of hold time, but because of an increasingly strong relationship with one's own body. Stretch, natural patterns, or even acrobatics all play a part here.

If you're interested in training that goes beyond the bodybuilding machines, comment ORIGIN and let's get started!

I talk a lot about how superheroes train, but how do I apply it?

Well, I focus on four categories:

1. Strength - How Much?

- Bilateral, Unilateral, and Rotational lifts force my body to learn and adapt to applying the strength across countless avenues, leading to applicable gains

- Applying strain through maximal loading, rate of force development (power), calisthenics, and odd objects further increases applicability

- Then greasing the groove through specific grip, hip, and back exercises means I stay uninjured

2. Athleticism - Under What Pressure?

This will look different for everyone. For me, it's elementary acrobatics and various martial arts. I love fighting and have fallen back in love with learning classical means, focusing this year on HEMA. It's important to have means to aspire to in the gym. Training for the sake of training is fine, but progressing to a level of greatness in a competitive field is even better.

3. Movement - How Many Ways?

Here we seek range of strength. How far can I stretch and still apply pressure?

We also seek to enhance kinesthetic and proprioceptive properties. Where is my body in space and what space is around my body? How can I manipulate both?

Gymnastics, rope flow, kettlebell juggling, crawling, climbing, jumping, and overall play are here.

4. Endurance - For How Long?

- Aerobic - Low intensity for a long duration. Jogging, long cycles, and marathon ergs are easy cardio with huge benefits.

- Anaerobic - Medium Intensity for a medium time. Most strength work falls in here, but I also include carries and walks to ensure my body can handle the work

- Creatine Phosphate - High Intensity for a low duration. Sprints, intervals, and all out power. My favorite.

2026 was a great year for Invictus. Thank you all for taking part in growing this community. I have HUGE projects coming next year.

Stay tuned

The Pansy Squat is one of the best movements you can do for strength, stretch, and balance. Whether it's used as a stepping stone for the Sissy Squat, a space to stretch your quads, or on a beam to test your balance, this one is a banger.

Many regard training as nothing more than a means to an end

A random number of sets and reps on a joint isolated machine in a $10/mo gym

Many dread the monotonous chore

But it doesn't have to be so

Finding a spot, practical or otherwise, to apply to your training does wonders for motivation and neuromuscular connection. Your big lifts won't be replaced and isolation exercises are still relevant, but new doors are opened along with the context required for drive. To avoid burnout, you need traction.

The only thing worse than a lack of capability is a lack of purpose. In proper training, you find both.

If you want to train like a superhero, you have to master your bodyweight. Most people make the mistake of programming their calisthenics the same way they program their weights. Not only is that suboptimal for hypertrophy and strength, but it also leaves the unique benefits of bodyweight training as an art on the table

1. Mechanical Dropsets - Instead of changing the weight of a movement, choose an easier analogous technique. Here I show a pike push up > hindu push up > hand stand kick up. By not resting between sets and reaching failure on each, my shoulders BURN

2. Locomotion - Running, jumping, vaulting, crawling, climbing, tumbling, balancing, and swimming are all fantastic ways to not only work out, but apply the strength and skills you enhance during your traditional sessions. They open up the world to be your playground so long as you think outside the box. Running on a treadmill is fine, but cutting angles in the forest is objectively better.

3. Dynamic stretching - Static positions are old news (mostly) but dynamics increase range of Motion significantly while also teaching you how to control yourself in those extreme ranges. At the highest level, you generate force through the extreme range of motion. For now, leg swings will do
