After a 3 – 4 year break from lower body strength training due to my ankle issue, I finally started working on the lower body little by little. Here are some things I have been careful about.
Activating Glute muscles
Activating gluteal muscles specifically medius and minimus. Why are they so important? well just read it. You may learn something new.
Training efficiently -Pullup-
Training efficiently is something I always care about when I train myself as well as during personal training sessions. If you are not sure, I am here to help you.
Anti Rotational Exercises
Strong abs means a healthy low back. But you always want to train safely. Read this to learn how you should train your body.
Mobility exercise for hips and thoracic spine
If you are sitting down most of the time for a day, you need to move. Not only strength training helps your general health but also some mobility exercises will restore your body to “normal”. Let me teach you during a personal training session if you aren’t sure.
Do these dynamic warm up before training
I never start with static stretches for personal training sessions but some dynamic warm up. I found people are so ready for training after them.
Some of Hamstrings stretch you can do
I am talking about the static stretch here. Make sure you stretch the target muscles when your body is warm. Otherwise, it is not only that effective, but also you may injure yourself by stretching.
Some mobility exercises before Squatting
Has everybody been having fun training? Try squats, mobility / flexibility exercises daily to keep your body functioning normally. And you should enjoy what you are doing.
