Monday 4/6 #1- Balance, core, supportive muscles, isometrics

Hello ALL!

Welcome to the first Virtual Strength class of Brooklyn Tri!

WHO’S READY FOR SOME TRAINING?!?!?!?! 🙂

These workouts will either be held LIVE st 5:30pm on Mondays OR I will post a video of the routine for you to do on on your own.

Our first workout is intended to get the body moving and begin laying down the foundation of strength to build upon for the weeks to come.

We will focus on core stability, single leg balance drills, and supportive muscle recruitment.

See you virtually!!!

MONDAY 4/13 #2- BALANCE, CORE, SUPPORTIVE MUSCLES, ISOMETRICS PART 2!

Hello All!!

This workout will be a progression from last week. The exercises will be a bit more challenging and enduring however the theme will remain the same, which is CONTROL. Being able to use the right muscles at the right time efficiently and economically.

We are laying down a foundation of strength that we will build upon as the weeks go on. This is the base of the cake. More layers, frosting, and sprinkles later 🙂

 

See you all virtually!

This routine is a foundational strength routine focusing on core, balance, supportive muscles. There are options to progress the exercises for each round. This routine is designed as the second strength of the season but can also be used as a standard low intensity strength routine in early Tri/run season

MONDAY 4/20 #3- Core stability, foot work, agility

Hello all! This workout will introduce foot work, agility movements and more exercises to enhance movement economy and running form. More speed and full body movements than last week. Going to be fun!   See you all virtually! Ben

2020 BTC Season #3- Core stability, foot work, agility

MONDAY 4/27 #4- SINGLE LEG BALANCE AND STRENGTH

Hello! This is going to be a fun one. We’re going to focus on single leg balance, single leg strength, and then put it into some compound movements. A great routine to focus on movement economy for Triathlon. See you virtually! Ben
2020 Season #4- SINGLE LEG BALANCE AND STRENGTH
 

MONDAY 5/4 #5- SPEED AND ELASTICITY INTRO

Hey Folks!

We’re introducing some higher speed movements and elastic training exercises. They go hand in hand. Think of the “pop and kick” of the run. Maximizing speed potential and tendon strength will make you faster, especially on the run. Don’t trust me, trust science 😉

See you Virtually!

Monday 5/11 #6 Speed and Power Intro

Hello! We’re going to introduce some speed and power into our workouts. The increase in intensity will require a bit more rest between sets/reps but you’re all ready for it! There will be less intense options as well. Brooklyn Tri Strength #6 Speed and Power Intro May 11, 2020 05:30 PM Eastern Time See you all Virtually! Ben
