Welcome back to Movement Monday!

If you want to progress up your Romanian deadlift, this is definitely a way to do so. By making your RDL single leg, you are taking away a point of stability and forcing yourself to balance and control.

Trainer tip: If you are struggling with your balance, adjust the workout to be a kickstand rdl and/or reduce your range of motion!

Welcome back to Movement Monday!

We’re going to STEP into the month with some weighted step ups. A simple move that’s reflective of every day and heavily effective if done right. You can adjust the exercise to be more cardio focused or more resistance. With any exercise, you can change the weight type, speed, direction, pattern and completely 180 the move!

For us today, we’re going to use a single, heavy, dumbbell and we’re going to focus on targeting the hamstrings and glutes.

Trainer tip: Try not to jump with that bottom foot – all the power should be from your elevated foot!

Welcome back to Movement Monday!

Another TRX workout for you – a TRX Pike! This is a killer core exercise that requires balance and upper body strength.

Your starting position is going to be a plank with your feet in the holsters hoovering off the ground. While maintaining your plank, drive your feet in while keeping your legs straight, making an upside-down V. Keep your core activated and control your feet back to your plank.

Sounds easy, right? Give it a go and feel the control!

Welcome back to Movement Monday!

We’re going to build our shoulders and get our core working with these seated shoulder presses. By sitting on the floor, you are forcing your core to stabilize and balance.

As you press through your exercise, you’ll want to maintain tension in your core and have a controlled range of motion. You can always do your shoulder press seated on a bench or standing, but this will add another element of challenge to your workout!

Welcome back to Movement Monday!

Today we’re using TRX Suspension Trainers to do a rear delt fly. Suspension trainers are great tools to do all sorts of exercises anywhere you can hang it. Your rear delt fly will use the TRX trainers at a medium length and you’ll hold onto the handles at a fully extended arm.
With your palms facing towards each other, you will open up your arms and squeeze your back to the top. You can have a slight bend in your arms but really focus on the squeeze in the upper back!

TRX Tip: The suspension trainer should always be taut! Try not to allow any slack.
