Week Seven checkpoint
For week seven we will be introducing the final piece of the program, two advanced stretches. You will do these advanced stretches in the daily routine after the basic stretches and before the glute activation.
Now is also the time to start increasing the range of motion of your squats, just remember to keep these in a pain free range of motion, and be sure to sit back into your glutes.
Just like last week with the movement skill, start all these new exercises very gently and be sure to read the instructions below carefully.
To do this week
The daily routine is still to be done every day:
- Foam rolling, 10 rolls each position
- The Crouching Three stretches, 30 seconds per position each leg
- The advanced stretches, 30 seconds per position each leg
- Glute activation routine, five reps each leg for each variation
The workout needs to be done three times per week, with at least 48 hours rest between each one:
- Knee isometrics, four sets of 30 seconds each leg
- Postage stamp jumps, four sets. See workbook for reps
- High hip skip, four sets. See workbook for reps
- Squats (increased range), four sets. See workbook for reps
- Calf raises, three sets. See workbook for reps
Remember to keep logging your pain levels before and after the days program.
And we would love it if you could give the program a review, these go a long way to make sure people hear bout the program and we would really appreciate it!
