Day 011 - Detailing

Keep the wrists straight, knees slightly bent, and pelvis tilted slightly forward while strength training.        Training via ActiveMail

Tip of the Day:



PERFECT FORM MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE: FOCUS ON YOUR WRISTS, KNEES, AND PELVIS. After years of ballet training, I'm a stickler for perfect form. Here are three of the most common mistakes: 1)Bending your wrists. Your wrists should always stay flat, so that your arms continue in a straight line to your hands on a level pane. 2) Knees: whenever you lift weights in a standing position, keep your knees slightly bent for a more solid base. 3) Whether lifting from a seated or standing position, keep your pelvis tilted forward slightly, with the lower abs contracted. This flattens out your lower back and takes the pressure off your spine.
