Core/ Aerobic “Alligator” Walk

In this video you will see David performing a great core building, upper body strength producing exercise….and he does a great job at the technique of keeping his hips straight & shoulders over his hands.

This is an advanced exercise for working your core (trunk muscles), and will also create a high heart rate response (when you incorporate many muscles used in an exercise, there is great demand for oxygenated blood to all muscles…therefore creating a more aerobic response & burning more calories). This also can be considered an upper body pushing exercise, because of the load placed on…

Power Plate Bulgarian Split Squat w/ Med Ball

The Power Plate is a wonderful exercise tool. It provides; muscle contraction, circulation, bone density & nervous system activation. Check out- www.powerplate.com

Bulgarian Split Squats are a challenging exercise, that helps with; balance, hip flexor stretching (important for those that spend a lot of time sitting), leg & glute strength, trunk activation, & shoulder mobility…in other words, a lot of great stuff!

If you don’t have access to a Power Plate, or other Whole Body Vibration (WBV) machine, just elevate your back foot on a step, box, or bench.

Give it a try!

Shoulder Mobility Work- Face Pulls

Many people suffer from neck pain. Quite often this is due to tight shoulders and poor posture. This video shows Sue performing an exercise called Face Pulls.

This exercise strengthens the rotator cuff muscles of the shoulder, and works on scapular retraction (shoulder blades squeeze). Most people are in head & shoulder forward posture due to lots of reading, computer work & driving. This exercise will help improve your posture & lessen pain.

Give it a try!

Med Ball Work

In this video you will see Bob & Rob performing 2 med ball exercises; wall rotational throws, & vertical granny tosses. Med balls are a great workout tool, that can be used for power, strength, aerobic/ anaerobic conditioning & core work.

The wall rotational throws are great for core & aerobic response, and are also sports specific to the baseball/ tennis & golf swing. The vertical granny tosses are a power squat move. You throw the ball in the air, let it bounce, catch it on the way down & let it load you into the next squat throw.…

Core Superset

In this short clip you will see Ed perform a superset of 2 excellent core exercises.
Now “core” usually makes people think of abs.
But that is only partially correct.
Core really refers to the trunk (scapula through the hips).

I refer to the first exercise as knee tucks in an elevated foot position (or wheel barrel if done with a partner). This is a tough move, with Ed in an isometric pushup position, performing a knee tuck into mule kick.
The second exercise is an isometric dip position, while performing knee ups. This move…

Functional Training w/ a Barbell & Bodyweight

The goals of this video are; show people that they do have time for exercise (the work in this clip is 8 1/2 minutes long), to let my clients see me work hard (suffer really), and to teach that strength circuits are very time efficient for fat loss/ strength building/ and aerobic-anaerobic conditioning.
People don’t have as much time for anything anymore.
But their health is regressing while they remain sedentary.

I also wanted people to know that they can work AROUND injury issues, not THROUGH them.
I have shoulder problems, and plantar fasciitis in both…
