Day one of the 6 month experiment with the amazing @korey.rowe The assessment revealed some major asymmetry in strength/ weakness between my left side (my “strong” side) and my right side (weak side). This is why I had the back spasm last month! We started with the pistol squat. As you can see, I’m started at the ground level: I couldn’t even do ONE with my weak side. I used to stand on my left leg (with my right leg propped up on the operating table base). while performing surgery and so my left leg is much stronger than my right. All you need for this is a bench or chair. Keep your bent leg at a 90degree angle, keep your other leg as straight as possible (light bend), and try to stand up and then return to sitting as slowly and controlled as possible. Aka don’t “plop” down! We did 3 reps on each leg, 3 sets/ times. It’s a killer and works the entire body. At times, I literally felt like giving up and the word CAN’T may have come out of my mouth. Korey did not accept this btw. Just another example of how what someone looks like does not necessarily translate into their actual health/ fitness/ strength. Even if someone needs to assist you with a light arm for stability, start from scratch. Aside from this test: we measured dimensions with a tape measure (more on this soon), blood tests for lipid panel, Heart Rate zone testing, and body composition analysis. All uphill from here! Let’s go! I will share more from this first session in the next issue of AJenda. Sign up in the link in my bio or at . It’s free. #6monthexperiment#fitness
Day One! A 6 month experiment in getting into the best health and shape of my life: I’ve partnered with trainer @korey.rowe to work on getting stronger, balancing out strength asymmetry (it’s why I had dreaded back spasm last month), increasing cardiovascular fitness, improving balance & flexibility. Watch here: Some of it can be done at home! What you need to get started: a scale, a measuring tape, something to record heart rate and the desire to not just look amazing, but FEEL amazing. I will be posting his workouts and what I’m doing so if you’d like to do it with me, please do! I will also include this in my weekly newsletter at #fitness#experiment#6months
