Check in with your posture. Put on a favorite song and breathe! (The video says postpartum but it’s too good not to share). Do this for 5 minutes.
Functional Progression Part 2 MODIFIED. I want to spend some time dialing in this movement. As this will be super important for postpartum healing. Perform 25 reps on each side. Nice and slow and controlled.
The standing pigeon stretch is a great modification to the general pigeon stretch that we may see in a yoga class. Spend 2 minutes on each side.
The single leg kettle bell deadlift. Perform 3 x 10 each side. You can increase the weight with each set as we are still warming up.
Today is back squat day. You have FIVE working sets of FIVE. Warm-up appropriately and take adequate rest between each set of FIVE. Only make lifts that you know that you can make!
Back Squats
5-5-5-5-5
Everyone loves a chipper;) The following workout is long, so find a nice pace and just move. Pick a set of dumb bells for the front rack lunges that you could do about 20-25 in a row before needing a break. When you get to the air squats, practice your breathing and/or squat to something like a box. For the med ball slams, pick a weight (4-10lbs) that you can perform 10-14 reps before needing a break. The hang power clean can be done with a barbell or dumb bells. Pick a weight here that you can do 5-8 reps in a row before needing a break. Push-up modification should still allow you to go through the full range of motion.
Complete the following:
750m Row or 800m Run/Walk
50 Front Rack Dumb Bell Lunges
40 Air Squats
30 Side to Side Med Ball Slams
