🏋️‍♂️Dual DB HammerCurl🏋️‍♂️
🗒Just a normal exercise to get a pump in. But HEY! Isolated exercises are good for muscle tendons for prehab and rehab too. Standing up and locking in the core and a little squat can give this exercise a little spice.
⛷ For a waterskier only recommended in the off-season to get a bit of a pump in. Always good after an Upper Body session to get a nice little isolation going. It’s good for our biceps tendon which take a lot of hits over the season.

🏋️‍♂️Hollow Hold explained🏋️‍♂️
🗒When it comes to Core exercises there is a lot of talk and different exercises to make the core stronger. I do feel tho, that a lot of times we jump the gun and forget about the basics. The Hollow Hold is exactly the start of a core strength journey. Simple, Effective, Important.
⛷ For a waterskier it is a good way to do start your core strength training. It is important that we have “endurance” in our core to prevent compensation on the water and an end result of lower back pain. Give it a try.

🏋️‍♂️Back Rack BB Shoulder Press🏋️‍♂️
🗒Shoulders,Back,Neck. This exercise is a classic and also simple. It’s a great way to strengthen the back muscles and shoulders at the same time. Also is helping to be able to get better hand stand position.
⛷ For a waterskier this will be important for proper season preparation. As much as I talk about not to overdo our back training in the off-season we still need to train the back properly. With this exercise you also learn proper control of rib cage and stability and coordination.

🏋️‍♂️Loaded lat Stretch explained🏋️‍♂️
🗒The Loaded Lat Stretch is a great way to open up range in your shoulders to create more overhead reach and therefore a new range of exercises. Designed to really get deep into a stretch with powerful loading.
⛷ For a waterskier this exercise is a must. As skiers we tend to get tight Lats all the time. Through compensation or just because skiing is a “lat heavy” sport. This can cause dysfunctions in our upper body system and can make you feel uncomfortable. You also will loose power because you will rely more and more on a bigger lat while your other muscles stop working the way they should. Try this at home and see for yourself.

🏋️‍♂️Dual KB Deadlift🏋️‍♂️
🗒Deadlifts are mandatory in any sports to build a strong posterior chain. But some people want to mix it up or have no bar. The Dual KB Deadlift is ideal for those situations and on top by separating left and right you create better coordination and work on symmetry and “feel” of control for each individual side.
⛷ A exercise for a waterskier for building Hamstrings, Gluteus Maximus and the Back. It also gives a good quick “pump” before skiing and of course can be used in any gym with any equipment. You can even use gas cans if you want. 😉

⚡️After Thanksgiving⚡️
🗒 After thanksgiving is before thanksgiving. We never stop working out because we want to achieve greatness. But today is especially important because our digestive system took a big hit yesterday. So get moving and get this digestive system moving. It might be hard but it’s worth it.

🏋️‍♂️Rotator Cuff Warm Up🏋️‍♂️
🗒It doesn’t matter which exercise you are doing or sport you are performing. Your Rotator Cuff in your Shoulder should always be ready. Quick and easy solution is this particular version. You can even do it standing or with 2 Dumbbells. You can pair it into your warm-up. It’s a very versatile Warm-up exercise.
⛷ A good warm up exercise for a waterskier since the shoulder is the first major joint which takes a lot of punishment while skiing. Not properly trained or warmed up and you can easily start feeling pain during the season. I see a lot of untreated Rotator Cuffs and Shoulders from waterskier with issues. I even use this exercise as a “prehab” and “rehab” exercise for skiers who suffered from issues with their shoulders. Keep it strong and warmed up any time you ski.

⚡️Enjoy every moment ⚡️
🗒 Workouts can feel one sided or boring because they don’t give the right “kick”. But sometimes they need to be for the greater picture. So enjoy every moment of every workout because it will make you better and stronger in every way!😉

🏋️‍♂️Fire Hydrant🏋️‍♂️
🗒Being in the quadruped position and using your muscles to get your hip through a full external rotation and abduction is a good routine for preparing your hips for lower body workout days in the gym. The key is to isolate the hip joint while keeping upper body and spine in perfect neutral position. This way you get the most amount of feedback from your working muscles.
⛷ This exercise is good for a waterskier because we use our hip and hip joint at all times for skiing. A proper warm up of the joint is crucial for proper strength and power development in skiing while keeping the joint healthy and mobile.
