The Three Staged Workout of Jason Statham

Jason Statham performs these three stages of workout to keep his body and muscles firm and lean.

Stage One:

• This is composed of an easy warm-up routine on a Concept2 Rowing Machine.

Stage Two – this stage prepares the body for more intensity of the succeeding workouts.

• You can do some heavy lifting along with a front squat, deadlift, or power clean. Repeat for five times only.

• Use light weights along with short circuit varieties of exercises.

• Exercise while carrying kettlebells or sandbags.

• Increase exercises with 15 kettlebell routines.

• Perform a variety of throws using the medicine balls.

Stage Three – this is also known as the “Interval Training”. It has a great intensity that would make you cry for air. Pick only 6 routines from the list below to make up a circuit.

• Ball Slams – Lift a 20-pound rubberized medicine ball overhead and drop it hard on the floor. Perform 20 repetitions.

• Rope Climbs – climb for 25-foot height using the arms and not the legs. Repeat 5 times.

• Pullups – jump from one pullup bar to the next one over it. Repeat for 8 times.

• Snappers or Whip Smashes – Secure a 25-feet heavy-gauge over a fence or railing. Use both hands to lift the rope overhead and smash the rope against the floor with a whip-like motion. Repeat for 20 times.

• Hanging Knee Raises – Bend the legs and arch the knees near the chest while you hang from a pullup bar. Lower the knees and legs and repeat for 20 times more.

• Burpees – position the feet at shoulder-width distance, start with a squat then bring your legs back to set a push up position. Pull the legs back under and jump as high as you can while coming out from the squat position. Perform for 20 times.

• Bear Crawl – walk on all corners of the entire length of the basketball court. Walk back and forth for three times.

• Farmer Walk – With a heavy kettle bell on each hand and the arms placed at the sides, march throughout the floor area of the gym and then march back to the starting area. Perform for 3 times.

• Front Squats – place a barbell in front of your shoulders and bend the hips and knees a bit until the thighs are parallel to the floor. Push back up and repeat for about 20 times.

• Rope Pulls – tie either a 25 or 45-pound plate to a 50-foot rope length. Start pulling the rope towards you and repeat for 5 times. 

• Weighted Stepups – on each hand hold a kettle bell or dumbbell. Step up on the bench keeping the dumbbells at the side and then step back down. Perform 20 repetitions.
