Six Movement Patterns for a Balanced Physique
- Incorporate the six movement patterns: squat, hip hinge, press, row, rotation, and split stance.
- Do at least one free weight exercise within each pattern weekly for balanced muscle development and to avoid losing functionality.
Use It or Lose It: Overhead Pressing
- The body prioritizes practiced movements, leading to the loss of unpracticed ones, as seen in older clients unable to fully extend their arms overhead.
- Consistent overhead pressing is crucial to maintaining this basic function, regardless of age or fitness level.
Importance of Rows with Scapular Retraction
- Include rowing exercises with scapular retraction in your routine to strengthen your back, neck, and shoulders.
- This improves posture and is essential for proper form in other exercises like overhead pressing and bench pressing.
