Now that’s an open hip!
Oddly enough, this photo of Brian A. was taken the last time “Angie” came up. Brian completed Angie with the fastest time of the day and some of the most flawless legit range of motion on Pull Ups, Push Ups, Sit Ups, and Squats that I have seen in the gym. Do you have what it takes to match that? Remember, on the Pull ups, the chin must clear the bar. On the Push Ups, chest and thighs must touch the deck and the elbows must lock out. On the Sit Ups, your shoulders must touch the ground each time, and you must sit all the way up. And last, for the Squats, the crease of your hip must go below the knee (below parallel), and you must open the hip and straighten the legs at the top. Some degradation of form is necessary when you ramp up intensity, but always remember…RANGE OF MOTION IS NON-NEGOTIABLE.
This Week: How Fit Are You?
A lot of times, people assume they are fit if they look thin or have some good muscle tone. This week we are going to talk about what it actually means to be fit. Being fit is not gauged by how good you look in a swim suit. It includes a number of factors. We need to take into account what’s going on inside the body as well. We will look at food, workouts, and lifestyle in this week of posts. Stay tuned….
“They have no struggles, their bodies are healthy and strong. They are free from the burdens common to man; they are not plagued by human ills.” Psalm 73:4-5
