Friends, Swimmers, Triathletes - a fun activity to help you play with holding the CORE firm and feeling a nice line from finger tips to toes.
Tip:
* play with finding your best spot on the BOSU in which to be balanced
* this exercise is about posture, line & balance (people who enjoyed Richard Quick's RIP coaching genius should like this)
* see if you can be as "tall" (ie - long and in line) on the BOSU as on the ground.
practice swimming "tall" and holding your line by being tall as possible from finger tips to toes while balancing on a BOSU - in the Supine and in the Prone positions. have someone measure you on the ground and on the BOSU and compare. on the BOSU if hands or feet are on the ground, it does not count. if the body is curved, do not measure along the body; measure a horizontal line from finger tips to where the toes are or should be. be in line.
hold the line and tighten the CORE. enjoy.
