So I did her "15 min swing workout" from her new DVD, which is good stuff btw.
I did appx 262 swings during her "15min routine" (actually 11min 15sec), but the first time around I used a 16kg, mostly to try and match her 10rep/15 sec pace.
After reviewing my swings I was horrified. I had a slight arc in my back. Nothing that hurt, but clear as day on the video. So then I rewound the disc and tried it again, making a point to get a better arc in my spine.
Didnt work. Up to 525 swings now...
Rewound DVD and grabbed the 24kg and did about 40 more swings.
Better, but not what I wanted.
Rewound it again (by now I am only doing 40 or 50 swings per rewind doing half w/ 16kg and half w/ 24kg)
I have no idea how many swings I did today, but in the neighborhood of 800 swings seems a good stab....
Some things I need to fix/be aware of:
- I must really make a point of arching back when I am down low, about to start swinging. Make sure I have an anterior tilt on pelvis.
- Keep eyes on horizon, lift head a little at the bottom. I was really looking too far down.)
- Pull up the kneecaps. I noticed that once I forgot to do that, my glutes stopped firing as hard.
- Practice AP thoracic glides from Z-health
- Practice 'Chickens' from Z-health
- Practice more swings...
