TireMax – Legs

Up to now, we’ve heavily focused primarily on upper body.
Today’s routine takes one of our leg routines and gives it the MAX effect.

1. The Butterfly Sweep (aka leg raises, ab crunch):
This routine can be very very difficult using tires using the standard technique of single-leg raises.
The TireMax leg version again maximizes speed and burst strength by doubling up your legs.
There are two routines in one. a) The crunch. Using both legs within the tire, seated higher than the actual height of the tires,
lean back, arms crossed over your chest, bring the tires up as you would be doing a crunch. Perform a set of 10, repeat 3 times. b) Leg raises. Again, using both legs, lean all the way back (again seated higher than the tires) raise the tires as you would normal leg raises. Perform 10 times, repeat set three times.

I call this the butterfly sweep for a reason. We’re strengthening your quads and hamstrings, the two primary muscle groups required to properly perform this sweep.

2. The Osoto Gari (aka leg trip take down):
This routine is best performed by advanced students, simply for the reason, this is in a separate martial arts domain, Judo. I am not a Juto professional and not an Osoto Gari expert. However, having said that, I am always game to try and improve my stand up/takedown game. This routine takes your tires and makes use of them in a super cool new way. a) standing facing away from your tires and preferably leaning against a wall or chair for bracing. Place your leg through the tire(s) backward, hooking your foot/ankle within the tire. Leaning forward, raise the tire(s) high as you can, typically past the 90 degree plane. Gently bring it back down. Perform this 15 times, repeating 3 sets. Or as you feel comfortable.

This routine strengthens your hamstrings and lower calf muscles. These muscles are required not only for the Osoto Gari, but also for other Jiu-Jitsu moves like any technique requiring your hamstrings, like a leg triangle, back take or even having a strong open guard to fend off the smash and pass. You will know you need to work on these muscles if you’ve ever felt cramping in your hamstrings as you perform some actions that you are not used to.

Title: TireMax Pro
Access Group(s): OracleLife
Tag cloud: standup, take down, requires speed, requires strength, strong man, training programs, comp training – shark tank, video

Long form note:

Like TireMax, Pro is my next level up.
It’s advanced techniques that work in Max techniques and prerequisite.

Make sure either you’re a Pro competitor and watched the max version of this routine (see previous week).

1. SuplexMax Pro:
Just like SuplexMax, only on the down cycle bring the tire down in a slam with force. On the up cycle, using the bounce kinetic energy of the tire, continue to bring the tire back through another SuplexMax. Since kinetic energy transfer is maximized, your muscles are engaged throughout the entire routine. This further maximizes your burn, speed and explosion.

Repeat three sets 15 reps, or which feels comfortable for you.

2. SideHustle Pro:
Again, perform the regular SideHustleMax as normal. Only now perform this with one of two options: a) using a slight adjustment of the tire horizontal axis, the tire’s edge used to bounce off the wall provides you with incredible bounce hence ups the speed of your routine. b) mix in your routine with HARD slams where the tire horizontal axis aligns flat with the wall, offering the most SLAM! for your buck. (Hint! It’s also very satisfying).

3. 3PointMax Pro:
As you would normally only now see if you can manage to bounce it smoothly and cleanly off each bounce. Allowing for a greater set ie. aim for a goal of ten! Repeat three sets.

Three new tire routines for you to try.

I call them TireMax. And for good reason.

We know that tire training isn’t easy. In fact that’s why we like it.

But if you’ve been doing tire work, you’re the first one to admit that performing a full suplex or tire toss is heavy work. It’s also inherently slow.

You have to walk over, pick it up and repeat. That moment of rest is enough for you to potentially take pause and . . . well, rest. And of course, sometimes that’s not what you’re looking for.

That brings us to TireMax.

“These three new routines are designed to promote high octane, explosive bursts over a sustained period of time.“

But why would we want that?

Good question. Why would we want that?

The simple answer is it focuses on the core tenants of good circuit training and more importantly to the JiuJitsuka, bursts of accelerated movement using your type II muscle fibers. Continued for a brief period of time, it improves your cardio and anaerobic output. All across your midsection, core and glutes. Everything you need for rolling in a killer tight guard, inversions, Soto Gari, Kata Guruma.

Well, if you’ve been a regular follower, or better a Tribe member, you’d already know that that’s one of the core tenets of OracleLife. To make you stronger, faster and smarter. The OracleLife method.

With that said, let’s jump into it. Here’s the link to the video. And don’t forget, if you want the entire routine with full warm up, check out my previous episodes, some of which is bonus content only available to tribe members, so consider joining. The past episodes go hand in hand.
