In this video you’ll see one of my clients working on some lower body strength and power. Rear foot elevated split squat also known as a Bulgarian split squat, which is a excellent functional single leg strength exercise. It also, has some great benefits which include injury prevention as the stabilizer muscles are being developed. Ice skaters also known as skater jumps/hops is a nice power and agility drill performed in a frontal plane/side to side motion. This is A movement pattern we don’t regularly move in. Being able to jump and land on one foot requires a good level of balance and coordination, and is something we had already been working on prior to getting to this level. Training your muscles to stabilize in free open space and with movement can help you body create more balance and control. For example, if you were to ever fall, you would have the ability to catch your self.#functionalfitness #functional #power #plyometrics #strength #stability #balance #core #coordination #conditioning #agility #mobility #leanmuscle #healthandfitness #speed #tenleytown #dmv #movementpattern
