4/1/22

Today was a solid workout... legs felt a little tired on the squats given this is my 5th day on in a row... but got through everything and I am looking forward to some rest. 

Warm-up

Cardio of Choice x 3-5 minutes 

+

2-3 Rounds

1. Knee Over Toe Split Squat x 5/side

*Elevate the foot or use assistance to achieve the best position possible. Knee in line with toes, heel flat,  upright torso. 

2. Dumbbell Pullover x 5 reps

*Keep spine straight. 2-3 second lower, 5 sec hold in end position. 

3. Squat Thoracic Rotations x 3/side 

*Elevate the heels to achieve a more comfortable position if necessary. Sit deep during the entire movement. 

4. Jump Squat x 5 

*Jump high and get that core body temperature up! 

Intention: Open up the thoracic spine and shoulders in preparation for overhead movement. Achieve deep single leg squat positions in preparation for double leg or single leg squatting.
