Warm-Up
A proper warm-up is crucial to prepare your body for the workout ahead. Coach Dee starts with a series of dynamic movements to get your blood flowing and muscles engaged.
- Marching: Begin with a simple marching exercise. This movement warms up your legs and gets your heart rate up.
- Toe & Heel Taps: Follow up with toe and heel taps to further engage your calves and ankles, improving your overall stability.
- Top Half Squat to Toe Taps: This combination movement targets your quads and glutes, ensuring they are ready for the more intense exercises to come.
Main Workout: Strengthen and Stabilize
With your body warmed up, it's time to dive into the core of the workout. Coach Dee has crafted a series of exercises that focus on building strength and stability in your knees.
- Pendulum Swing to Glute Kick Back: This exercise not only strengthens your glutes but also enhances your balance and coordination.
- B-Stance Squat: A variation of the traditional squat, the B-stance squat targets one leg at a time, allowing for a deeper focus on each knee.
- Duo B-Stance Squat: This variation adds an extra challenge by incorporating both legs, enhancing overall lower body strength.
- Hip CAR: Controlled Articular Rotations (CARs) help improve the mobility and flexibility of your hips, which is crucial for knee health.
- Knee CAR: Similar to hip CARs, knee CARs focus on the joint's range of motion, promoting better knee function and reducing injury risk.
- Squat to Deadlift: Combining these two powerhouse moves, this exercise targets your quads, hamstrings, and glutes, providing a comprehensive lower body workout.
- Glute Bridge: Strengthening your glutes is essential for knee stability. This exercise ensures your posterior chain is strong and supportive.
- Figure Four Glute Bridge: Adding a twist to the standard glute bridge, this move further engages your hips and glutes, enhancing their strength and flexibility.
