Exercise of the week

To start off the week and with spring a few days away I will give you a great full body functional movement to start off with. The exercise is a reverse lunge row. Simply go into a split leg stance with the back in neutral and head up. Be sure that the hips are in line, perform the row with the same side leg that is behind you. This exercise is fantastic for back strength and hip/shoulder flexibility.

Exercise of the week

Responders, here is an easy one. A single leg row. A great way to integrate a lower body stability exercise into an upper body strength and postural reeducation movement. The row is an excellent motion, just remember not to shrug, squeeze your shoulder blades and to keep your hip/knee 'soft' so you avoid leaning back and straining your back. 3 sets of 12-15 reps should do the trick.
