Begin by lying on your back with your knees flexed at 90 degrees |
Extend your arms out to each side for balance, lift your toes up off the ground |
Drive through your heels by firing your glutes and lifting your hips up in the air until your range of motion has reached its limit |
Once you are in a “bridge” position, pick one foot up off the ground and pull your knee toward your face |
Return that foot to the ground and repeat with the opposite leg to complete one repetition |

TRAINER TIP |
Lunge to Arm Raise |
- At the bottom of the movement your knee can rest on the ground
- Make sure that your front heel stays in contact with the ground, bearing most of your bodyweight
- Keep your eyes forward and your spine flat

|
Begin in a upright standing position with your feet together |
Take a large step forward keeping your feet lined up with your hips |
Drop your hips straight down keeping your upper body in an upright position |
In the bottom position there should be a 90 degree angle in your front and back knee with your back knee almost touching the ground |
Now shift your hips forward as you raise your arms up over your head with your thumbs pointing up |
Once you feel a stretch in the front of your hip push back to the standing position and repeat on the opposite leg |

Power Training
EXERCISE |
TRAINER TIP |
Bodyweight Split Jump |
- Keep your chest up throughout the whole movement
- Focus your weight and balance on your front foot
- During the squatting motion your front foot should stay flat on the ground
- Keep your eyes focused forward, not down on the ground

|
Find an area with plenty of room overhead and begin with a split stance, with your feet in line with your hips |
Lower your hips into a split squat position such that your front and back knees both have 90 degree angles |
Upon reaching the bottom position, change direction quickly and explode up into a jump |
In mid air switch your stance so that you land with the opposite foot forward |
Land softly by absorbing the landing and proceed into the next repetition |

Recovery
EXERCISE |
TRAINER TIP |
Foam Roll Back |
- Spend more time on the tender areas
- When concentrating on your lower back, grab the backs of your legs to prevent yourself from falling backwards

|
Begin by lying your upper back on your foam roller |
Cross your arms across your chest with your hands on your shoulders |
This should separate your shoulder blades and expose more muscle along your back |
Now lift your hips up in the air so that your weight is supported by your feet and your upper back |
Use your heels to roll from your upper back down to your lower back |

|
EXERCISE |
TRAINER TIP |
Lat Stretch |
- Keep crawling forward with your fingers to create maximum stretch in your lats
- You can reach your arms to the left and right for several seconds to get an added stretch in the muscle

|
Begin in a kneeling position and sit back on your heels |
Keeping your back flat, reach forward and place your hands on the ground in front of you |
Without lifting your butt off your heels extend your arms as much as possible and lower your head toward the ground between your arms |
