Hamstring Slides with a band for extra resistance.
Great simple exercise to target the glute, abs, lower back and hamstrings.

Creating independence!

When we first started lower back and knee pain was stopping him from being able to comfortably get up from the floor without assistance.
Now we are going from floor to standing for reps.

Working on a few different things and putting them together.. (aka Mr Velcro performing), depth drop, plyo jump and single leg landing sequence.

Single leg balance ✅.
Ankle rehab ✅.
Hip Mobility ✅.
Glute strengthening x2 ✅✅.

We started at 40kg now we’re at 105kg.
4 things we’ve done to achieve this: Consistency, progressively overloading, training the accessory muscle groups and most importantly listening to the body.

When you feel good go for it. When 80kg feels like it’s flying up then we add 5-10kg. When a “lighter” weight feels heavy or the body’s just not feeling it then dial it back.

Loaded big movements 🥰✅.

When we first started together a glute bridge was too painful to complete. The lower back felt grabby and wouldn’t allow any movement to occur. Now we are repping out these effortlessly.

Consistency!!!

Working on Nordics using a band to assist the exercise.
The trick is to squeeze the glutes and abs to keep the pivot point at the knees (rather than the hips).

There have been a tonne of studies on the effectiveness of Nordics on Hamstring injury prevention.

If you’re able to perform them then I’d be programming them 2x6 reps 2 times a week.

Who else loves a 2 in 1 exercise?

Right Adductor and left Glute Strengthening plus left ankle/limb Balance Training.

To regress the exercise hold onto a stick or move towards the anchor point.

Win Win!

Sometimes we need to be creative when working around the body’s pain signals.

This is a Prone Banded Row (on a half roller). The standard seated row was causing upper body discomfort. This version wasn’t. 🤷🏽‍♂️ it’s still the same movement, using mostly the same muscles. Either way it’s a Win Win!

Nothing is ever linear! Nothing is ever 100% text book!

I believe that working together and collectively thinking/trying to figure out what works vs doesn’t (at this point in time) is the best way to progress a client.

2 in 1 👌🏽.
Isometric exercise for the quads.
Isotonic exercise for the hamstrings.
Great for knee rehab.

Burpee Box Jump with Single Leg Landing.

Incorporating some full body explosive movements in this session to get the conditioning element in and to simulate some sort of game play.

The Single leg balance is progressing nicely.

Teaching lifting techniques can be difficult sometimes.

I find the best way to help clients learn the technique is to video them and show it back to them.

Here’s a perfect example of how different angles and lifts can target different muscles.

On the left we have a client lifting the trap bar in his “preferred” technique. Pretty much a mixture of squat and hinge movement. I’m assuming there’s a combination of quads, glutes and hamstrings firing here. Which is fine!

On the right we have him doing a deadlift focusing on hamstring tension and hip drive. This recruits less quads.

Know your weaknesses and train them.
