Anti Rotation Core exercise!




This is another favorite anti- rotational core exercise that I currently use in my training regime or with personal training clients. The exercise shown in the video is the advance progression.

You should first start kneeling with various stance legs positions and then move to the upright position. The goal for this exercise is that your trunk should not move at all. Loading this exercise with heavy weight it's not ideal. As I mentioned before, minimal trunk movement is the key. Do not forget that you are stretching the hip flexors as well.

In addition, its very bjj/ judo specific because you are imitating/ performing the throwing pattern used to throw the opponent on the floor. The only correction I would make is to switch the position of the feet.

Try is out and let me know.......I want to wish everyone Happy Easter.......I'm out!
