    What is your favourite exercise for strength & conditioning? Let us know!
  • Hi, sometimes I watch videos there are few years. This one give me that reminder that you need sometimes. Back to basic strength. I do some of them already but I some of them I forgot or do in another way. Thanks 😊 //Marie - Louise

    If you have a slight bend in the knee when doing calf raises it helps target the soleus which is one of those often neglected but super important muscles.
  • @tristanc2120
    I've just recently restarted Pilates to assist in my triathlon development. Similar exercises to what's in this video. Correct technique is very important.
  • I usually do 20mins core training every day. Especially, I think doing ab-roller (30 times on knee or 10 times with standing) is pretty good for biking and swimming.
  • Very great video i give these exercises to my kids thanks . i just don't understand why can someone still have to click dislike ?
  • Good video. Great excersise.. 👍 Looks like Club La Santa. ☀️
  • @supalakpr
    The Hip Bridges is the best. When I'm too lazy and lying down cozy in my bed. This one does lessen my guilty feeling of being lazy 😂
  • @TheHutch000
    One leg dumbbell lunges the plank and pike sit-ups - old skool stuff always the best for core .
  • @lydiadavies7073
    you could have mentioned arm position in push ups, I used to have my elbows out but you're meant to have the more tucked in
  • @trbeyond
    Try doing those bird dogs (think you called them Superman’s) with just balancing on one hand and one knee. Slightly bend knee so foot is not providing balance). Super challenging
  • @edenbrandon4187
    where are u working out and how do I get a membership. This place looks miiiinnttt
  • @justalurkr
    Heather's elbows do the same thing as mine in lockout! Does this mean I'm a triathlete?
  • Nice to show the other side of triathlon, but I think wold be more interesting for a personal trainer teach some preseason exercises.
