Jean,
What are your favorite, what are you doing right now for, and have you learned any new one recent for:
keep in mind i'm not weight training these days, but i do a little here and there...
1) tricep
favorite and the only thing i've done lately is tricep push ups.
2) back
which part of the back? favorite - back extension on the ball. the only thing i've done recently is bent-over rows.
3) stretch
i like a lot of stretches! maybe if i have to pick one it'd be butt stretch lying on back with ankle on opposite knee. i like dynamic stretches a lot too.
i've been doing a bunch of different stretches lately: most often dynamic quad and hip flexor stretches, hamstring with heel out in front, chest stretch with arms clasped behind the back, side stretch from child's pose, side lunge...
4) plyometrics
favorite and only one i've done recently is plie jumps.
How do you do it? I don't think I've seen sideways tricep push ups. I was talking about the ones where your arms are close to your sides, hand in.
Jean,
1) tricep
Tricep push-ups
2) back
Dead Row
3) stretch
I'm not a stretcher. My favorite might be the one where the arm goes across the chest and you grab either above or below the elbow.
4) plyometrics
Don't do those either.
That's a good one!
