Fall Back into Routine

FALL BACK INTO YOUR ROUTINE……

In case we haven't met, here are few things for you to know about me:

I am a Certified Strength & Conditioning Coach with NSCA, CSCS, with a specialty in functional movement. 

What does that mean for you

We all move differently and offering personalized options to every individual is one of my specialties. As a functional movement specialist, you will receive the best instruction on how to modify exercises to maximize your workouts and make the biggest strength gains within a small group setting.

One of my fall favorites is the WALL SIT SQUAT. This exercise is great for the hamstrings, glutes and quads (all those good leg muscles). It's also great for balance and CORE.  

When you stabilize yourself on the wall, you can brace your core, use your back extensors and engage those leg muscles fast and quick!   

What I love about teaching? Sharing with you all of my tips and tricks of 18 years of coaching and training clients. 

Years of experience translates to:

-taking the time to assess proper form

-taking the time to progress at your pace

-allowing room for growth and fun in a comfortable environment where all levels are welcome!

 

If you've done strength training before I would love to hear from you - what is your favorite part of our morning class together? Hit reply to this email and let me know. If you are new to strength training, and interested in joining a class or starting this fall with our new class session on 9/9, send me a message on Instagram or Facebook.

We can set up a quick 10 minute zoom call, and see if my live group functional strength training class is a good fit for you.

30 minutes, twice a week, is a great place to start. Need a place to start?  

Try these exercises below, 10 reps each. As a personal trainer, I always include a dynamic warm up before we lift weights for a full body strength workout and these are some of my favorites:

  1. PRONE COBRAS (on the floor, on your stomach, squeeze your glutes & reach your arms forward and back)

  2. PUSH UPS (start from the knees or against a wall or chair)

  3. SQUATS (body weight squats)

  4. REVERSE LUNGES (alternate each leg, stepping back)

  5. STANDING LEG RAISES (kick one leg at time in front)

  6. HIGH KNEES (pull knee forward & up, like a march, alternating)

  7. HIP OPENERS (alternate each side, as you lift your knee forward and then open knee to side)

  8. PUNCHES (in a low squat hold, make a fist and punch forward, alternating, quickly)

  9. HOPS or JUMPS (lift your feet off the ground and with softly bent knees, hop)

  10. PLANK HOLD- 30 seconds (can be done from wall or chair or knees to start) 

If you can do at least a few of these exercises above, then there is a place for you in my small group training.  

Let’s grab a call and get you started!  ALL classes start 9/9
