GSZ Laurent Homework

Horizontal Loading

These 2 exercises that we’ve talked about on our recent session. The goal is to do it every day (if possible twice). It doesn’t take too much time, but it can have an incredible feeling to your body.

LAR UMT
Assisted Wide Stance Lateral Hip Shift
time 1-2 min
Tempo slow
Start in a comfortable wide stance with your hands on an elevated surface (chair, box, desk, wall). Gently shift your hips side to side, while not forcing the movement. Try to exhale when you move to the sides and inhale when you come back to the middle.
Set Time Tempo
1 1-2 min h:m:s Slow
LAR UMT
90-90 Side Lying Thoracic Rotation
time 1 min each sides
Tempo slow
Lie on your side with your elbow down on the ground and your legs in a 90-90 position. Try to keep the back thigh in line with your torso. Reach underneath your armpit gently while exhaling and inhale on the way up. A great way to increase space and rotational ability in the thoracic spine. This can take pressure off the lower back.
