Tired of the same old plank movements for your core?
Here are two great metabolic movements that involve rotation and stability!
Yes! It is a new toy, but sometimes you have to throw in some pizzazz and sparkle.
After-all… it is Valentines Day!
Movement Number 1
Addresses hip rotation and push movements: starting perpendicular to the attachment; take two to three steps out, rotate from the hip and strike! If you notice, I bring back the rip trainer very slowly, giving my oblique’s more of a load than just letting the trainer whip back. I have a light band on the trainer, and it allows me more range of motion. Really looking for power here, quick and light, 8-10 reps or however many you can do while holding form! Make sure you work from both sides!
Movement Number 2
This time we use the trainer as a stability device, holding it at chest level, complete three reps, then jump switch legs while maintaining that hold. I have to admit, this was a tough one for me and one that shot my cardio up!
You could also turn it around and pull, while doing the same jump lunge. I was able to do about 30 seconds worth with sound mechanics.

Enjoy!
