Twisting Lunge - Stability, Adductors, and Core Strength w/ the Core Hammer

 

Stability, Core, Grip Strength

The Lunge Twist w/ the MostFit Core Hammer is a great Strength and Conditioning move with a number of variations. The lunge itself, when done properly, provides a great core, glute, quad, hamstring, adductor, and stability challenge, among many other attributes. Add the Core Hammer, with its, distally loaded weight, and you have a whole other set of challenges.
 
Master Trainer Helya Glen from The Studio in Ventura CA describes some of the pointers for a proper and effective lunge twist. She also includes a number of added challenges like changing your grip position and adding the Core Hammer slam. 
The MostFit Core Hammer's unique design allows for so many different types of exercises and workouts. The round urethane head can be slammed on any surface, no need for a tire. This makes it easier to lead group training, bootcamp. or group exercise class and incorporate Sledgehammer and Mace exercises. Add it to a strength and conditioning circuit or a functional training workout. The Core Hammer is not only a great way to impress your athletes and clients but its an effective strength training and cardio tool.
