🐇 BUNNY HOPS

Want to build up lower limb strength, endurance, power? It's Easter so it's time to turn our bunny spirits up.

Depending on the angles you hold the weights and the direction you jump you will target different areas of the lower limb but the key is to really feel it in the quads and glutes as you perform this exercise as the main movement is to extend the knee and the hips. With the exercise we learn to absorb the forces with the muscles and to build joint and ligament tolerances to anterior shearing forces.

🦵 BOSU BALL LUNGE VARIATIONS

These are great for providing stability training on top of resistance training. The instability means that almost all lower limb muscle groups have to work to keep you stable. Whoops, lost my balance a bit on one rep.🤭

Try this out to add some variation to your training. This is especially great for people recovering from ankle, knee and hip injuries but only when specified by your health professional. Right time, right place matters.

👏 REACTION X STAMINA X STABILITY

Thinking of fun ways to move, introducing various modalities to engage patients of different backgrounds and improve on their overall fitness.

The gives me a tool that increases patient engagement but at the same time gives us a laugh. It's just fun!

🦵 HANGING KNEE/LEG RAISE

These exercises are used to strengthen the hip flexors with the knee raise utilising more of the psoas whereas leg raises affecting more of the re**us femoris.

If you want to get better at lifting your leg up with activities such as running or jumping over things while hanging in the air, this will aid you to do them better over time.

It can also be beneficial to work on these muscles to aid with the lower back, knees and hips etc.

💪 EXERCISES TO WORK ON MOVING YOUR POSTURE

Try these exercises to help you move away from getting better at sitting hunched over at the desk.

Most of the time in front of the desk you are reaching forwards causing you to tighten in some parts of the front of the chest and neck areas.

We want to to give these muscles a rest from constantly being in those positions and work on the muscles that oppose these actions so that we retain our baseline functions.

Move it B*beep 🤡

🦵 ISOMETRIC WRIST EXTENSION

Helping out the Tennis Elbow by introducing the tendons some Resistance without Irritating them.

We maintain the strength and try to change the view/perception towards pain during a particular movement ie. wrist extension in this case.

🦵 ECCENTRIC HAND GRIP

Following up with Isometric Grip Strength Training for my Golfer's Elbow, we start doing some Isotonic Strength Training coupled with some Eccentrics to load the hand and wrist flexors so that they can slowly accomodate movements that would usually hurt.

Here I am loading up the finger and hand flexors up with this device. I'll work my way back into pain free pullups and deadlifts...and carrying all the groceries in one go.

🦵 PISTOL SQUAT

Another exercise you can do at home to work on the legs if you don't have weights.

Challenge both your stability and strength with the pistol squat and build those massive legs up.

You don't necessarily need to keep the leg that's in the air straight but I like to just to challenge my hip flexors a bit more.

🦵 SPRINTER’S / REVERSE LUNGE VARIATION

We are increasing the difficulty of the lunge by making it more unstable, requiring more balance and recruitment of deeper muscles.

Build on the whole lower limb and core through the use of this lunge variation. Be more stable in your lunge!

It's great to diversify and progress your exercises in different ways. You do not always have to use weight progressions especially if you're at home with no equipment.

💪 DIPS

Work your Chest, Anterior Delts and Triceps out at home or just go to your local park and you should have some equipment that allows you to do them.

The wider the more chest recruitment, the more narrow the more tricep recruitment.

🦵 BULGARIAN SPLIT SQUAT

An exercise to build the quads and glutes.

Closer stance works the quads more and further stance works the glutes more but I like a mid stance to work both at the same rate.

If you get a stretching pain in the front of the ankle put a cushion or raise the incline bench seat up a bit to decrease the angle of straightening at the ankle.

Please consult a health professional to know when to implement the exercise in your routine.

🦵 HIP FLEXOR STRETCH

Sometimes you may feel constant tightness after sitting or standing for long periods.

While sitting for long periods, your Hip Flexors are tightening up meaning the knee is drawn towards the torso.

While standing you might find yourself getting lazy, meaning your stomach is protruding forwards while your butt is sticking out backwards.

This can affect many different structures of the body such as the lower back, hip, knees etc.

If we restored the passive range of motion and tried to build strength in this range, you will find it much less strenuous overall whether resting overall.

This stretch will help out with the passive range but people are different and it's better to have yourself checked out first before applying these exercises.

💪 PEC STRETCH

Working on opening up the front of the shoulders to allow the client to expand the front of the rib cage and breath in a more relaxed manner and to stop the client from trying to counter the constant passive force from the chest with his upper traps.

You can also use this to improve on passive range of motion and of course to look more aesthetically pleasing. 😛

Won't help as much as you think without strengthening and awareness though.

💪 LAT STRETCH

The Lat Stretch is used here to improve shoulder flexion and promote thoracic extension so that overhead movements may be performed easier without too much strain on the shoulders.

It will improve flexibility of the thorax and shoulder but make sure you also strengthen the area to be able to utilise the extra flexibility.

💪 BODYWEIGHT ROW TO BARBELL

Working on shoulder blade retraction during pulling movements to stabilise the shoulder and strengthen the pulling motion instead of just relying on the arms.

Activate the rhomboids, mid and lower traps to pull the shoulder blades back together before using the triceps and biceps to move the hands closer to the chest.

💪 BANDED EXTERNAL ROTATIONS

A variation of exercise used to warm up the shoulders for rotational forces that may occur during other activities.

It is usually applied in rehabilitation to target the external rotators of the shoulder.

Build tolerance to loading in different planes of motion so you can be stable however you move.
