I may know everything there is to know about the Ultimate Grind, but I know nothing about winning Ultimate Grind Championships! When I want to know about winning UG Championships, I ask 2-time champion Molly D!
Molly D swears by the "Muscle Marathon" workout! The Muscle Marathon involves a series of 2 minute "breakdown sets" specifically designed to train the same muscles that you'll be using in the championships.
A "breakdown set" involves doing an exercise that would be extremely difficult to sustain for a full 2-minutes. When you can no longer continue the exercise with perfect form, you begin doing a modified version of that exercise(like a knee pushup)...when that modified version gets tough, you can do a further modified exercise (like a wall-pushup).
No matter what your fitness level is, you can get a heck of a workout doing "breakdown sets." If a "Muscle Marathon" sounds like something you want to do, click the Muscle Marathon youtube link on the side of the page!
