Hello Athletes and Warriors!
As you know if you regularly read these emails, that I regularly reference and get help from some of the best minds in the business of fitness and performance. Why? Because if I hired a coach who claimed to "know it all" he/she would probably not be my coach for very long. Because different excellent coaches like coach Joe will have a different perspective on programming, exercise, nutrition, etc., So it is with this variation on a great standard. So even though I know a lot, with coaches like Joe around, I will continue to learn more and help you even more so. Let's get it! -Nate If you're tired of doing traditional squats and are looking for a way to increase your strength, listen up. In this lesson you’ll learn how to do the Cossack Squat. You can do the Cossack squat first, as a dynamic warmup, to loosen tight hips and strengthen weak adductors (inner thighs) through a full range of motion. Stand with your feet at about twice shoulder-width apart and turn your toes out slightly.
Cossack Squat (LOOSEN TIGHT HIPS)
Squat as deep as possible to the left. To maintain balance, extend your arms straight out in front of your body at shoulder level. Keep your right leg straight and pull your right toes into your shin. Pause, return to the start and repeat on the opposite side. That’s one rep. Perform 15 reps, then rest for 45 seconds. Complete two sets. If you have tightness around your hips and thighs, hold onto a wall or bench, for support, and use a smaller range of motion.
