Workout plan based off of the popular movie 300.

Created by, Mark Twight.

So looking at the 300 workout, I see that this workout routine was like any other high intensitycircuit training program,

complete with plyometrics and unique exercises. However, it’s definitely not for beginners.

As a matter of fact, Kraemer, PhD, professor of kinesiology at the University of Connecticut.

Warns, (In a interview he give to www.webmd.com) “This program was done for a stylistic effect, to look like a Spartan,” he says.

“Forget about trying to do the graduation test right out of the box, he says. The out-of-shape person who starts The 300 graduation test is going to be dead the first day.

It's too extreme for the average person”.

As I scoured the internet to find the 300 hundred diet plan, I didn’t fine much.

My guest is that it probably consisted of high calories, carbohydrate, and protein intake during their peak training phases to maintain performance for their two hours of weight training and eight hour fighting training five days a week.

Then a trimming low carb phase for the actors that would be half clothed during scenes.

So what is “The 300 workout graduation test”?

It is a score based workout similar to workouts design by the famous cross fit community. So here is the testing phase:
Length of program 10-12 weeks
• 25 pull-ups
• 50 deadlifts at 135 pounds
• 50 push-ups
• 50 box jumps with a 24-inch box
• 50 "floor wipers" (a core and shoulders exercise at 135 pounds)
• 50 "clean and press" at 36 pounds (a weight-lifting exercise)
• 25 more pull-ups -- for a total of 300 reps

There's no rest between movements and the total time is recorded.

Andrew Pleavin, who plays Daxos, leader of the Arcadians, was the only actor to take it after the 12 weeks. He finished in 18 minutes and 11 seconds.

"We love the movie, we like the workout."
3 kettlebell rating.
