Off season starter workouts

Incase anyone wants to start working out . I posted this in the wrong place and decided to leave it. This is what I'm giving our athletes to do to start the summer break.
Anyone else hating the changes to the blog posting pages?

No Gym workouts – do 2 times a day A, B, or C. Rotate through them.



No Gym Workout A:

25 Squats

25 Supermans

45 sec. Front Plank

20 Push ups

20 Single Leg Hip Extension

25Seated Russian Twist

20 Dips off Chair

25 Supine Bridge (back plank) with straight leg raise Count each leg lift.

25 Crunches – elbows to knees “small V sits”

25 window wipers with knees bent

15 feet -Side slides – stocking feet together, heels to right, then toes, go across linoleum floor and back – this works hips and torso.

These are the numbers I’m doing right now before foot surgery. You can probably do more or add weights.


The extensions are done lying on floor with foot resting on a bed or couch. Stick one leg straight up 90 degrees at hip, and use support leg 90 degrees at knee to lift glutes off floor until body is straight. Glute/ham both feet are on bed or couch and you lift glutes up.
