🐲 This video is a part of the "Dragon Boat Training [Week 1] Exercises" playlist, which is meant to cover the bodyweight workouts performed during the respective week's land training sessions.
🐲 See the other "Dragon Boat Training [In-Gym Exercises]" playlist which provides the team with workouts to perform in the gym during the week in addition to land training.
🔥 Target muscles: abs/core, shoulders and triceps.
🤓 Exercise cues:
1. Feet and arms shoulder width apart
2. Shoulders stacked above wrists
3. All fingers should be spread and gripping the floor with more pressure on the palms
4. Alternate each leg with a kick towards the sky, and at the very top of the kick squeeze your abs
5. Lower your leg without slamming your foot on the ground, repeat
Start with 3 sets of 30 seconds and work your way up to 60 seconds +. Avoid doing a high rep day too close to water practice as you will be sore.
🛶 Why this exercise for dragon boat performance?
This exercise is great for your abs, overall upper body endurance/strength and cardiovascular endurance. This is also a good way to strengthen your push muscles as we work into more push ups over the season. An overall strong core and upper body will improve your paddle stroke endurance and power.
👊 Please feel free to message me or the coaching team for any questions/concerns.
🤝 Try, share and challenge a teammate.
Let’s get it 🔥🔥
