Flutter Kicks

طريقة الأداء

1. 01On a flat bench lie facedown with the hips on the edge of the bench, the legs straight with toes high off the floor and with the arms on top of the bench holding on to the front edge.
2. 02Squeeze your glutes and hamstrings and straighten the legs until they are level with the hips. This will be your starting position.
3. 03Start the movement by lifting the left leg higher than the right leg.
4. 04Then lower the left leg as you lift the right leg.
5. 05Continue alternating in this manner (as though you are doing a flutter kick in water) until you have done the recommended amount of repetitions for each leg. Make sure that you keep a controlled movement at all times. Tip: You will breathe normally as you perform this movement.

نقاط الأداء الصحيح

• —Brace your core before the first rep and keep it braced.
• —Lead with the elbows and finish by squeezing the target muscle.
• —Control the lowering phase — that is where most of the growth stimulus lives.

أخطاء شائعة

• —Using momentum instead of the target muscle.
• —Cutting the range of motion short to add load.
• —Adding weight before the movement pattern is clean.
