Hard core ladies 🤘🏽🔥-#pilates #matpilates #corestrength

New level 🔐 Kim continuing to 🚀 with overall strength , functionality and cardio. Today was training session 5 in 6 days and she is still dropping 💣💣

🔌⚡️ Core-connection If you are like most adults, you may have lost the 'feel' to your core. This is very common for both men and women. However, it can be most common in women who have given birth (especially caesarean section). Not sure if you have--brace for a punch to the belly 🥊 Were you able to feel full contraction creating a strong shell around your core? If not, try these two easy core engagement exercises! 🧬

👨🏽🍳 Boulder Shoulder Recipe One of the main reasons many adults stay away from training shoulders is the residual pain in the rotator cuffs and upper spine. If this is you- try these steps 🪜 1️⃣ Lower the weight- The deltoids are small muscles that do not necessarily need a lot of weight to stimulate. Try lowering the load. If the body realizes more support is needed, the traps and back will fire; taking away the opportunity for the delts to hold their tension. 2️⃣ Think 'Push'- For delt flys (although they're a 'pull' exercise) try the cue of pushing the dumbells away from you. This will naturally lengthen the arms which will cause the Deltoids to have to contract to counter balance the weight. If full extension of arms is 100%, think 75-95% arm extension depending on the delt being targeted. 3️⃣ Bounce off the top range- Many people try to pause at the top of range- which causes pain in the rotator cuffs and traps. Instead of trying to 'lock out' the top range, think softly bounce off at '95%' to the top. Then allow a slight release to the delts by hinging forward. If the traps want to over fire- think shoulders away from the ears. If this was helpful, please like and share! 👊🏽🧬

Throwing smoke 🥊💨 Kim in her element after pull day. Notice her using the ground very well to both organize position and create ground force 🙌🏽

Child's play 🟢 🙌🏽 Amy finishing core series with a fun full body connection movement 🔌 She made it look easy for her first time doing the exercise. Key is matching breath to intent to assist in creating tension in the core for the hold. If you enjoyed this post, please like and share! 👊🏽 🧬

👌🏽✅ Pain free split squats Kim just began week 5 of training and has built back up to her natural training rhythm. She enjoys higher rep sets with short recovery-- essentially she likes to work 💪🏽 As much as she enjoys rapid movement, her knees have taken on some stress from years of training. Because of this we tailored her daily warm up and leg day programming to target 🎯 Glutes and hamstrings can be much easier muscles to isolate (while limiting needed knee stability) than the quads🦵🏽 In this split squat, Kim's goal was to achieve a quad 'pump', while limiting her knee having to fight for stability. We are using a band to give added support to the lead leg and also gives the knee a tensioned track to stay in while in movement 🛣 If you have had knee issues in the past and split squats have been off your radar. Give this movement a try. Begin with a medium tensioned band and bodyweight only. If you enjoyed this post, please like and share! 👊🏽🧬

Built tough 🛠️😤 Kim just wrapped up Month 1️⃣ and 2023 🎉 Training 3 days x week at home, plus 1-2 days light auxiliary at the gym, Kim is pushing heavier weight, higher reps, moving more efficiently and oh by the way....down double digit lbs 🙌🏽💥 Momentum created 🌊...bring on 2024 💪🏽

🏆🌎 Top Athletes all do this! We all enjoy watching sports- but why would we rather watch an MLB game 🥇 than a Minor League 🥈game? The grace of the movements. Visually everything looks faster and easier. It's cleaner and ultimately more entertaining 🍿🙌🏽 Next time you're training, take look in the mirror during some of your sets. How easy can you make it look? 👀 If you enjoyed this post, please like and share! 👊🏽🧬 🏋🏽️- @regangrimes
