Stimulus
– The tempo ring rows should have a controlled 5s descent. Squeeze the butt in order to keep the body rigid.
– The weighted glute bridges should be completed by holding a dumbbell across the hips. Athletes can use the same dumbbell across or increase weight each set.
– The seated abductions can be completed with a Hip Halo, small band, or a regular size band (wrap 2 times around the legs to make it smaller).
– The arms should stay completely locked out on the banded pull-apart with the shoulders and traps pressed down. Use a thin band for these.
