Power Pose - Live Training Session

This body position should always be done before and after doing an exercise. 

It is going to help give you proper posture and proper alignment, which will help to engage your muscles and no matter what move you are doing, you are doing it safely. 

You always want to be in your power when you're working your muscles.

To remember this, look at it as a 3 part checklist:

No. 1 Start from the bottom and look at your hips - you want to tuck your hips under. At the same time you want to squeeze your glutes.

No. 2 Core Contraction! After tucking your hips in step1 and then contracting your core, the combination compacts you to give your spine support to safely lift weights.

No. 3 Is your shoulders. Roll them back and down to create a straight line down your torso.

This pose may feel "weird" at first, if you have never tried it but it will help you have a much safer and enjoyable workout - helping to prevent injury.
