For injury prevention and movement efficiency, core
strength is vital.
These exercises can help you to build strength in other
areas of your life and performance.
These exercises might not be appropriate for everyone.
Two heavy kettlebells, a TRX Suspension Trainer
and an Ultimate Sandbag are all you will need.
Carry your entire bodyweight in both of your hands. If you are 140 lbs, for example, you can carry a
70-pound weight in each hand.
Start by walking at least 65 feet and work your way up to
a longer distance.
You want to be able stand tall with your ears, shoulders,
hips and knees aligned, and your sternum high. Don't let your ribs flail.
The suspension trainer should be adjusted to about
mid-calf. You will face away and your toes will be in a
foot cradle.
Place your body in a plank position. Slowly lower the plank towards the floor. Your plank
should be lifted off the floor.
When you are back in plank position, bring your knees to
your chest and then extend your arms back into plank. Do 10 repetitions.
Use the Strength USB. Place your legs at about hip-width apart. Place the
bag on each foot.
Hold the neutral handles in your hands, and then lift the
bag up by driving your heels.
Lower your hips as you went up. Perform a back row from the bottom.
Continue the hinge to stand, and then back to the row. Repeat for 20 reps.
The suspension trainer should be adjusted to about
mid-length. With your right foot aligned to the anchor,
stand in front of the anchor point.
Lift your left knee, keeping your foot flexed. Keep your eyes on the horizon. Begin to lower
your tailbone towards the ground. Drive your right knee toward your outside.
To stand, drive your right foot into the ground. Keep your torso in a plank position. Do 10 reps
each side. Do this twice more.
Place your body on your right side and place your hand
under your shoulder.
Stabilize your stance by keeping your hips straight and
your left foot in front. Your hips
should point towards the sky.
Keep your right shoulder in line with your middle back. Keep your head straight and keep your eyes
forward.
For 15 seconds, hold the button. Continue for 10 more times. Repeat the
process on the other side.
