hi my name is chris brumed and this is
0:02
kay and we're here today doing a my
0:04
protein masterclass video
0:06
we're going to go through five mobility
0:08
exercises for you to try before your
0:16
so the first exercise we've got for you
0:19
in this exercise you're gonna start
0:20
standing make your way down into a press
0:23
hold fully extended and from there take
0:25
your right foot forward and step it
0:28
next to your hand or as near to it as
0:31
it's important that you get to this
0:33
so we can really open up because from
0:35
there i want you to try and drop your
0:37
hips and lift your chest
0:39
and then it really accentuates a stretch
0:41
in your groin on the front leg and your
0:44
hip flexor on the back click
0:46
from there we're going to take the front
0:50
and then change sides
0:51
i want to hold this for a few seconds
0:54
and slowly transition back and forth for
1:00
and you really feel your hips open up as
1:03
through each repetition
1:06
if you just bring that back to the start
1:07
position for me to hold there so some
1:10
people will struggle to get their foot
1:14
drop down to your knees
1:16
and then try stepping your right foot
1:19
so you get it to the position you can go
1:20
to and then try and lift the back leg
1:23
you may see some people are a little bit
1:25
higher up if they're up here struggling
1:27
with flexibility so all you'll do is try
1:29
and work overtime to bring that lower
1:32
lifting the chest and really try and
1:34
open that position up
1:36
and you'll feel it start to loosen that
1:38
front hip and that back hip flexor
1:41
and that's grinders so it really loosens
1:53
the next exercise we have is walkouts so
1:56
walkouts are very simple you can stand
2:02
getting the stretch to the hamstrings on
2:04
walk forward and drop the hips into the
2:06
ground to really open up the front of
2:08
ideally locking your head back as well
2:12
from there going to reverse the movement
2:15
feeling the hamstrings loosen as you go
2:16
to the top standing right up
2:18
just hold there for a second
2:21
some people will struggle to reach down
2:23
to the floor in that manner because
2:24
they're a little bit tight to the back
2:25
of the body if you are don't worry about
2:28
bend your knees so if you try going down
2:29
now with a bit more of a knee bend
2:33
some people may be like this
2:34
which is absolutely fine you're still
2:36
just trying to get as much movement as
2:37
you can and improve it over time then as
2:40
you come back up on this one especially
2:42
try and keep your legs as straight as
2:43
you can for as long as you can
2:46
which will just help loosen off through
2:48
the hamstrings as you come up
2:50
but just try and develop that movement
2:51
if you are struggling i know some of you
2:54
will be in a bit of a different position
2:55
that's fine but just try your best to
2:58
get as close as possible and make it
3:02
as you're down and back up to the top
3:13
for the next exercise we're going to do
3:16
pushing your knees out to side to really
3:20
the inside of your legs and set you into
3:22
that squat position for exercises during
3:24
your session so if you just squat down
3:28
take your feet nice and wide and then
3:30
just focus on pushing the elbows into
3:32
the knees pushing them out to the side
3:33
some people will struggle to get into
3:36
so for some people it might be a little
3:40
a little bit and around your back
3:43
some people will be a little bit more at
3:44
this position but you want to try and go
3:47
as low as you can so if you try and just
3:50
get into that position open up as much
3:53
and just hold it and then maybe come
3:58
and then try and repeat if you're
4:00
struggling to get that position
4:02
if you're someone who is quite easily
4:04
able to get into it just one time
4:06
through might be enough if you're really
4:08
struggling to get there i'd say go
4:09
through it for a few repetitions
4:11
hold him for a good five to ten seconds
4:18
if you're at that maximum reach and you
4:20
feel you can get more if you come back
4:24
you could hold the plate and go down to
4:25
the same position and obviously your
4:27
hands are going to be wider and then as
4:28
you push out you'll be able to get your
4:30
knees that little bit further again so
4:32
that's a more advanced technique if you
4:34
are able to do a little bit more than
4:36
the basic one we've got there
4:46
for the next exercise we're going to do
4:48
some toe touches and then reach into the
4:50
sky so this exercise is especially
4:52
effective if you've been sat down a lot
4:53
in the day because obviously you're
4:55
going to be quite tight through the
4:56
hamstrings and through the front of your
4:57
body if you've been slouching at a desk
4:59
or anything else of that nature
5:01
so for this dead simple all you're going
5:03
to do is reach down to the ground
5:06
and then you're going to feel a stretch
5:07
through the hamstrings in your lower
5:08
back just reach as far as you can if you
5:10
can get your toes fantastic if not
5:11
that's fine it's going as low as you can
5:14
hopefully lower each rep
5:16
from there you're going to go up to the
5:17
top and reach right up to the sky and up
5:20
and back and really open up the front of
5:22
and then just continuing that
5:28
so it'll really open up your body ready
5:31
for your exercise session
5:38
okay guys the last exercise we've got is
5:40
the cat and the cow if you've ever done
5:42
yogurt you'll have done this movement
5:44
it's dead simple just gonna go down to
5:48
on all fours and from there
5:50
we're going to go up to the top first
5:54
so if you imagine just coming
5:56
right up as high as you can as high as
5:57
you can trying to bend your back think
6:00
bad posture and crunching your abs and
6:02
then reverse it going down to the ground
6:05
chest up and really trying to flex
6:07
through the spine and just moving up and
6:10
down through these positions
6:12
and it's just trying to get that
6:13
midsection moving as much as possible a
6:15
lot of people are tight through there
6:17
so to finish a warm-up with this
6:20
movement is going to allow you to get
6:21
into much better positions when you go
6:23
into the exercises during your session
6:27
and just move through a few times
6:29
i'd say at least 10 times each way
6:32
and from there you'd literally just walk
6:38
back at the top ready for your session
6:40
okay guys that brings us to the end of
6:42
i hope you find it useful give those
6:45
exercises a try before your next session
