Details of each๐Ÿ‘‡

๐ŸŽฅ of world number 1 Scottie Scheffler performing some half kneeling scoops on chirosporttvb Insta (exercise number 6 ๐Ÿ˜‰)
1๏ธโƒฃ - Rollouts

Use a barbell or ab wheel here. Tuck the tail bone under and keep your glutes engaged and slight rounding through lower back as you work out through your max range without falling into extension. Great way to work on anti extension.
2๏ธโƒฃ - Wide Stance Rotations

Use a long bar on a cable machine and assume a wide stance with the toes turned in slightly to limit hip involvement. Rotate through the trunk here before resisting the pull of the cable on the way back.
3๏ธโƒฃ - Kneeling Halos

Start in the tall kneeling position and stay stacked as you pass a kettlebell around you in a circular motion. Up the speed, weight or size of the circle to increase the challenge and really use your core to resist the pull of the weight. You could also perform this move in half kneeling or standing position if you prefer.
4๏ธโƒฃ - Med Ball Rotate + Stop

Like your typical med ball toss but before you let the ball go hit the brakes hard + fast. This will really challenge lead side braking as well as hammering the obliques!
5๏ธโƒฃ - Landmine Rotations

A favourite amongst golfers. Work the bar in an arc down towards the outside of each thigh using the trunk. Control the load on the way down before driving back to the start with a little intent each time!
6๏ธโƒฃ - Half Kneeling Scoops

From a good stacked 90 90 half kneeling set up rotate from low to high in a scooping like motion. You can use a dumbbell here, a plate or even a golf club!ย 

The move Scottie is performing ๐Ÿ˜
7๏ธโƒฃ - Banded Suitcase Hold

Your standard suitcase carry/ hold but on steroids! Adding the band oscillations really ups the stability challenge through the shoulder and core.
8๏ธโƒฃ - Plank Drags

From your standard plank position use a kettlebell or dumbbell and drag it from side to side staying as stable as you can through the body as possible. You could use feedback such as a yoga block on your lower back here that would fall off if you twisted too much to act as feedback. You core is working hard here in anti-extension and anti-rotation!
There are plenty of other great options out there but these are just some of my favourites ๐Ÿ˜

Lots of these also challenge far more than just the โ€œcoreโ€ ย and so offer more โ€œbang for your buckโ€ย 

Your โ€œcoreโ€ is always being challenged (lot more than people think too!) in big compound moves and they should take priority and make up main bit of your workouts but supplementing a little with moves like these can also be beneficial๐Ÿ‘Œ

1๏ธโƒฃ - Half Kneeling Drifts
โฐ - 30 secs each side

Split the knees as wide as comfortable and have your shins parallel with the heels down on the inside if possible. Stay neutral through the trunk and make small pulses back towards your heels. Be gentle here! ๐Ÿ˜…

๐ŸŽฅ from @Etpi
1๏ธโƒฃ - ๐‘ถ๐’—๐’†๐’“๐’‰๐’†๐’‚๐’… ๐‘ป๐’๐’”๐’”

Use your whole body here not just your upper body. Try to get the ball as high as possible and obviously make sure it doesnโ€™t come back down on you ๐Ÿ˜†

This is a very explosive motion, particularly for hip extension, thatโ€™s similar to the keg toss in strongman events ๐Ÿงจ
2๏ธโƒฃ - ๐‘น๐’๐’•๐’‚๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’๐’‚๐’ ๐‘บ๐’๐’‚๐’Ž

Really drive up to create as much leverage and stretch as possible and try to slam the ball behind your heel so you create lots of rotation each time!
