In-Season Maintenance
As usual, I don't get to the gym to lift quite as often during the season. I assume this is similar for most ultimate players. In anycase the last workout with Andy I felt a bit weak in terms of lower back strength, so I asked Andy about some in-season core stuff that you can do. Here's what he had to offer in for in-season maintenance:
Before/During/After Practice
1. Dynamic warm-ups (leg swings, scorpions, body twists, air squats, glute bridges) to make sure you are properly ready for practices/games.
2. Take the time to stretch after practice.
Outside of Practice
3. Core (weightless):
- 1 minute each of Front/Side/Back planks
- 2 sets of alternate single arm and leg supermans
- weightless good mornings (note the link has a guy using weights, just do what he's doing, without weights).
*note: I would imagine that some abwork would be good to add to the core circuit in most cases, but was not suggested given the lower-back focus I had.
