***NEW ARTICLE!!! 25 ROTATIONAL Exercises for Athletic Performance!! LINK IN BIO! Barbell Kayaking Rotations
.
Here I’m performing what I refer to as Barbell Kayaking Rotations which is 1 of 25 new exercises from my NEW ROTATIONAL Training ARTICLE just released this morning (article link in bio).
When performed from the 90 degree eccentric isometric split squat lunge, these target just about every muscle from head to toe while simultaneously working rotational strength & motor control in the transverse plane. One of the unique benefits of this movement is that each rotation not only involves significant rotational torque, force production, & acceleration but there’s also substantial deceleration and force absorption.
These can be performed from either the top of a split squat position or the bottom of the split squat/lunge position. I recommend starting with the top of the lunge then gradually work your way into holding the bottom 90 deg eccentric isometric.
When performing these in the bottom of the eccentric isometric lunge, not only do these blast the entire lower body, but the smaller stabilizers of the hips, knees, feet, & ankles get worked overtime to maintain balance & control the body while rotating the barbell.
As an added bonus these are a phenomenal conditioning & cardio drill that get the heart rate spiked to max levels due to the incredibly high intensity & effort levels needed to perform these even with light loads.
