Core exercises

I was doing ‘dead bug’ last week when my eldest came in with his mates . . needless to say he was more embarrassed than me :D

If it’s any use I do a day 1/day 2 alternate routine:

Day 1:
Sumo squats
Regular squats
Glute bridge
Arabesque
‘Spider man’ rotations
Lateral push

Day 2:
Plank
Plank with dog leg
Dead bug
Jack knife (still the one I struggle with most)
Forward leg thrust
‘Superman’ stretch
Leg lift

Also everyday I do:
Clams
Sitting leg raises
Calf sterches
Hip stretches
Piriformis stretches
Eccentric heel drops
Some sort of back stretch (like pulling a bow and arrow)

. . and then all the bloody foam rolling.

I sometimes think it’s mental the lengths we go to keep right and fit and most days I still feel like shite :D

Ffs you always gotta go one better
 


I try to create full body tension throughout my strength training exercises, but in terms of the exercises that I find best, then it would be,

Stir-the-pot
Bird dog
Glute Bridge
Pallof Press
Suitcase Carry
Farmers walk

Ring rows, press-ups and pull-ups also do a good job.
