Ashley| Mom Fitness-Diastasis & Prolapse Specialist on Instagram: "Single leg deadlifts are cool for balance, core, and some glute/ham gains…but if you want BIG GAINS…you have to add in these variations. I’ve been working really hard on building out my SLAM Elite program (will be done by Labor Day). The muscle gains I’ve made over this six months while programming it are insane. It is because I’ve added more load through heavy lifts and added in some new dumbbell work like this. I’ve also been taking my creatine (c0mment CREATINE if you want the link)! These three moves slay… ‌ 1️⃣Single Leg Abducted Deadlift (thanks @bretcontreras1 for this gem) 2️⃣Knee supported Deadlift 3️⃣Staggered Rotation Deadlift These will give you MORE gains than you ever thought possible. Why? Because… Yo
Petra ⚡️Movement For All Bodies on Instagram: "Want more of this? ✅ Ankle stability ✅ Knee strength ✅ Hip strength & control ✅ Better balance ✅ Incredibly portable ✅ Totally customizable This simple but amazing exercise has it all! Which is why I just love this one! I do it all the time and it’s a great work break too! Customize for your needs by varying any or all of these: 1️⃣ how wide you step - wider is harder 2️⃣ how low you go - lower is harder 3️⃣ how vertical your shins are - if they stay vertical it moves the work to your hamstrings and can be easier for some knees. If they come forward the work is more in the front. Try 5-10 each direction. Modify to meet yourself where you’re at. & hit me up in the comments if you have any questions! 🤗 And yes, this is totally one of my fa

75K views · 5.1K reactions | ITB syndrome can be tricky because the pain is located on the outside of the knee, but the source of the pain is the hip And it usually comes down to controlling the hip in single leg by strengthening the muscles that attach into the ITB, like the hamstring, glutes, lateral quad and TFL I wouldn’t try to stretch or foam roll the ITB if your have lateral knee pain because it’s not going to speed up your recovery, instead I recommend strengthening and stabilizing the hip For a full rehab plan, go through the Hip Program so you can return to pain free running (linked in bio) | Lisa Mitro, Physical Therapist for Runners

Leigh Edwards | Injury | Movement | Performance Therapist on Instagram: "Constantly statically stretching your hamstrings with little success? 😩🤯 It may be time to start getting some strength work into the area 💪🏻 This will help it to move through its range whilst being challenged, enabling for better contraction and better results from your movements 🙌🏻 as well as getting some all important single leg work in too 😅 Hamstring strengthening exercises can allow for protection and improved movement of the knees, legs, hips, even helping to relieve lower back pain and increasing flexibility and mobility 🚀 There are many variations out there and there is no best exercise!

9K reactions · 527 shares | Build a strong Cossack squat! ✅Save this for your next leg day! Movement 1: Anchor Cossack Squat Movement 2: Goblet Cossack Squat Holding the kettlebell between your legs, like in movement #1, lowers your center of gravity, making it easier to maintain balance during the movement. This position allows you to focus more on the squat and lateral movement without worrying as much about upper body stability. Holding the kettlebell at your chest, like in movement #2, raises your center of gravity and challenges your core more to maintain balance. This position requires greater control, especially in the upper body, to keep the torso upright. If the Cossack squat movement is difficult for you, start with the kettlebell in the anchor position (movement 1) and focus on increasing your range of motion in your hips. 🔗 in bio for training options 💪🏻 #kettlebell #legday #legexercise #fitnesstips #newtofitness #beginnerfitness #mobility #strengthtraining #functionaltraining #functionalfitness | Jeremy | Functional Workouts & Fitness Tips
