“Within the mobility section, the exercises chosen are effective at mobilising the areas of the body where most men are tight – owing largely to sitting down at work,” says Foulis, “while the main full-body section features three bang-for-buck movements for strength and muscular development.
“Moving on, every effective training programme should include some form of carry. Having a strong grip will have significant benefits for the rest of your training – so aim for one carry exercise at least once a week.
“And the rower? Well, if you’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing this devilish piece of kit when working at maximum capacity, you’ll know just how taxing it can be. The same goes for the overhead ball slams, which will not only send your heart rate through the roof, but will also develop explosive power and back strength.”
