Natures Weights: Stone Workout 🪨
🔺️ There's many benefits to lifting heavy stones including strengthening stabilizer muscles, strengthening your grip, improving core stability and many more.
🔺️ Although it may be hard to focus on the aesthetics of your body, you'll gain a more natural strength working with "nature's equipment"
🔺️ 4 Sets x 30-45 Seconds Each
⬇️ Exercises
➡️ Stone Swings: Grab a heavy stone and place in front of your legs with your arms fully locked out. You will then swing from side to side and ensure that you do not have the stone resting on your pelvis. This will decrease the stress placed on your shoulders and forearms.
➡️ Stone Walks: Grab the stone and place it just under chin level. You want to have the stone a few inches away from your chest so that your shoulders, arms and core are getting the full benefit of this exercise. You will just simply walk until your body gives out.
➡️ Rows to Deadlifts: Get in a sumo stance with wide legs and use momentum to row the stone towards your body until your back muscles fully contract. You will then squat down on the downwards motion while locking out your arms in the process. Then, repeat the motion.
➡️ Stone Holds: Place yourself in a flexed sumo squat hold with the stone in front of your legs and arms fully locked out in front of you. This will engage your legs, forearms, core and lower back.
