The best exercise for grapplers
_______________
The Turkish get up is one of my favorite exercises, especially for a grappler. This exercise has been described as “loaded yoga” because you have to move up and down while loaded with resistance.
.
1️⃣Returning to the feet: This exercise is especially important for grapplers because it teaches them how to get up when someone is trying to hold them down. While the resistance point is not exactly the same there is a very similar principle.
2️⃣Assessment: This exercise is a great assessment tool because it is a whole body exercise you can find weak points or movements that need further attention.
3️⃣Shoulder stability: By maintaining a load overhead at various angles it is great for developing shoulder stability and strength.
