TRAIN LIKE THIS 🧰 

If the goal is to be strong for long then you need to be training like this!

Squats and deadlifts are great but if we’re looking to be resilient and strong as we age then these components should be a part of your lower body training as well.

Here’s why

1: UNILATERAL TRAINING: The primary benefit of unilateral exercises is the ability to train both sides of the body equally. It prevents overusing, overtraining or compensating with the dominant side, which helps to isolate and correct muscle imbalances which can aid in injury prevention and rehabilitation.

2: TRAIN YOUR ADDUCTORS: Often forgotten about with MORE attention paid to the glamour muscles like quads and glutes the adductors actually make about almost 23% of the upper leg and are major contributors to knee and hip stability.

3: STABILITY MOVEMENTS: Stability training benefits your overall fitness and injury prevention as well. It not only lowers your risk of overuse injuries but also helps prevent accidents that can lead to acute injuries. When you have weak stabilizers, it becomes more difficult to perform tasks because of improper alignment and positioning.

4: ISOMETRIC HOLDS FOR HEALTHY TENDONS:
Tendons attach muscles to bone, so stiffness aids in its ability to transmit force between the two. If the force between muscle and bone is better transmitted, you will be able to utilize that power better as an athlete.

5: MULTIPLANAR MOVEMENTS: joints such as the hips can move in all three axes and all three planes. They can move in flexion and extension in the sagittal plane, laterally in the frontal plane, and rotate internally and externally on the transverse plane.
