~ PT DAY ~

BODY ROLLS

Description: This stretch begins while standing, perform a body roll paying CLOSE attention to not allow your bottom to shift backwards. Put your booty against a wall with your feet 2-3 inches away from the wall to hold yourself accountable. You should feel a strong stretch in the back of your calves. 

Goal: 5 body rolls with 15 second holds

LOWER ABS WITH KNEE EXTENSION

Description: This move starts by lying flat on the ground with feet flat on the ground and knees bent. Contract your core (skinny jeans) so your pelvis rotates backwards causing your back to become flat against the ground. You then lift 1 leg perpendicular to the ground keeping knee bent, then extend the hip and knee as low as you can while keeping your back flat on the ground. Make sure your lower back never comes off the floor.

Goal: 3 Rounds, 10 reps per leg per round. 

You will rest your upper core and use your hands to feel for the front of your hip bones. You are turning on your T.A. and keeping it on the entire time. We will discuss this more during zoom.

BACK EXTENSION

Description:  This move starts laying on the ground on your stomach.  Then, with your arms flat on the ground above your head with thumbs pointing up to ceiling, squeeze your shoulder blades down and together. 

Goal:  3 Rounds, 10 reps per round

SCAPULAR DEPRESSION

Description: This move starts laying on the ground on your stomach. Then, with your arms flat on the ground above your head, squeeze your shoulder blades down and slightly together. Your arms will help by bending at the elbows to bring the shoulder blades downward as well.

Goal: 3 Rounds, 10 reps per round

LOWERING FROM SITTING

Description: Start with your knees bent and slowly lower your body to the floor (without fully relaxing). Perform a sit up back to the top. The key here is a tight core throughout and lower yourself SLOWLY.

Goal: 3 rounds of 8 reps

PIKE TO TABLE

Description: Begin in a pike position. Rotate your body and shoulders to come into a table top position. Focus on keeping your hips up throughout and do not let your bottom drop.

Goal: 3 rounds of 10 reps

GARGOYLE SQUATS

Description: Follow the video for a deep stretch and hip opening squat. Hold the deep stretch for 5-10 seconds.

Goal: 3 rounds of 5 reps. 

LUNGED BACK EXTENSION

Description: This move starts in a slight lunge position with arms at ears. Then you will open your trunk to reach the wall behind you. Be sure that your back foot stays on the wall throughout and your back knee does not touch the ground.

Goal: 3 Rounds, 5 reps each leg. 

NEEDLE KICKS

Description: Follow the video. Be sure that you keep your hips in alignment with your surface (no rotation either way). Go slow and control the movement. Squeeze your booty to produce the “kick” – not momentum.

Goal: 3 rounds of 10 kicks each leg

KNEELING HIP FLEXOR STRETCH

Description: This move starts in a sight lunge position. Then you contract your abs to lessen the arch of the lower back and lean forward allowing your hips to open. Focus on not allowing your back to arch as you lean forward.

Goal: 15 second hold x 4 reps each leg

HIP ROTATION

Description: This move starts by lying on your back with your legs straight. You will then lift 1 leg at a time doing circles with that leg being sure to keep the circles even and not rotating your hips away from the ground to compensate for any tightness.

Goal: 3 Rounds, 5 reps each direction

STANDING HIP STRETCH

Description: Start standing and bring 1 leg up to the wall with your foot flat on the wall. Then, lean forward to feel a stretch at the hips/hamstrings and calves.

Goal: 3 rounds of 5 reps per leg. 10 second holds.

~ GOAL FOCUSED TRAINING ~

PIKE PUSH-UPS

Description: Begin with your feet on the FLOOR with your body in a pike position. Perform a push up assuring only your elbows/shoulders are moving but you are keeping the angle at your hips the same. Once you have mastered that, elevate your feet on a stable surface as the video shows.

Core engaged, tail tucked the entire time!

Goal: 2 rounds of 10 push ups.

V STAND

Description: This move starts sitting on the ground, legs straight, feet pointed. Then, with no momentum, lean forward, and use your core and triceps to lift as powerfully as possible to lift your bottom. Focus on holding your core tight to keep a rounded posture to support your back and your shoulders forward.

Goal: 2 Rounds, 10 reps per round. 

KRYS - remember to do the cat down to your heels THEN do the V-stand attempting to replicate the same movement at your pelvis to lumbar junction.

PULL UP NEGATIVES
