BACK TRAINING WITH RESISTANCE BANDS

Image
Get more out of your workouts by increasing the amount of 'time under tension' in each set  with  resistance band back exercises . The longer your muscles are exposed to load (iron or rubber) the more intense your workout should be. For this reason we recommend holding your contraction longer and slowing down your rep  movement  tempo.  While using resistance bands, keep your shoulders back, spine aligned, knees bent, and your lower back supported. A back workout with bands is an effective way to supplmement or substitute a weightroom workout. Get creative and perform any 'pull' [back] exercise you can imagine with machines or free weights, only using our resistance bands. Keep your core tight and your shoulders relaxed during your resistance bands back workout to ensure all your lat muscles absorb the load. Let's go with some exercises: 1-  Pull to chest: 2- Pull over: 3-  Seated Rowing: More back exercises with resistance ...

PROPRIOCEPTIVE TRAINING WITH ELASTIC BANDS

Image
Proprioception is the sense that informs the organism of the position of bodily parts. It regulates the direction and articular range of movement and allows automatic reflex reactions and responses. It participates in the development of the body schema in relation to space and gives support for the realization of motor actions. It also participates in balance or coordination. It is important in the common movements that we perform daily and, especially, in sports movements that require special coordination. Through the proprioceptors, the basic reflexes are activated that allow adjustments both at the muscle-tendinous level and in the stability components of the joint, which constantly send information about the position of the body, degree of elongation-shortening and muscular tension, speed, angle of movement, acceleration of the body and balance. This information is processed through the central nervous system to make the necessary adjustments at any time and generate the appropri...

PALLOF PRESS

Image
The pallof press is an intense and effective exercise to work the abdomen testing the stability of the core.

SPECIFIC MEANS FOR STRENGTH TRAINING IN FUTSAL WITH 3 DIFFICULTY LEVELS

Image
As we have repeated on more than one occasion, strength training is planned according to the characteristics of the sport and the requirements of the competition. Thus, there are sports whose main foundation is the power or explosive development of force (i.e. maximum manifestation of force in the shortest possible time) such as jumps and pitches in athletics, football or some martial arts. In others such as swimming, cycling, canoeing, etc., the goal is to acquire optimal levels of muscle strength. Finally, other sports require a high degree of muscular endurance without compromising power (Bompa, 2015; 2001; Cometti, 2002). This is the case of sports such as basketball, handball, hockey, badminton... After the periods of anatomical adaptation (preparation of muscle groups and joints for strength training) and maximum strength in which we use predominantly general means, a transition to more specific means of force development becomes necessary in order to achieve the expected adapt...

TENNIS ELBOW REHAB

Rehab for a tennis elbow doesn't need to be terribly complex. Really what we are trying to do is find a way to load wrist extension. We are going to show you an easy option that we like more than other exercises. What we're going to do is just take a band, hold it and then walk out to get some tension on it. Then, take your opposite fist and put it right on the inner forearm next to the wrist. That's going to give you a little bit of support as we start working with this. Then from there, just pull back against the band by extending at the wrist. And you are going to feel a nice burn here throught the forearm as you do that.  If you need to make it a bit easier, just step in or get a lighter band. If you need to make it a little harder just step out or get a heavier band. Minimal changes here make a big difference making it very easy to progress and regress back as needed. But work throught it, gradually progress at it, and things will start feeling a bit better. ...
