HOW TO SKIP: MASTERING THE DOUBLE UNDER

4/14/2020

4 Comments

 
A Double-Under is when the jump rope passes under your feet twice between the time it takes for your toes to hit the ground when skipping and is a skill highly sought after yet elusive for many. However, you’d be surprised by how quickly you could master the exercise by setting aside perhaps just 5 minutes each day to practice it.
Why you should learn this? 
  • It’s a fantastic cardiovascular exercise when you’re limited for space, time or simply want to spice up your workouts & will strengthen your core & calf muscles.

  • It looks seriously cool and is incredibly satisfying to master! You’ve got to enjoy exercise to keep it sustainable.

  • At WITTFIT, the equivalent for 1 Double-Under is 3 Single-Unders in our workouts so...well, you’d be silly not to make life easier for yourself wouldn’t you?!

So, if this is something you’ve been neglecting for a while and hear yourself echoing the ‘I can’t skip’ mantra, now’s your chance to learn how to get this under your belt (and your feet, twice) and feel like a ninja! ​

Many of the principles covered in THE SQUAT also apply to the deadlift such as the breathing, bracing and maintaining a neutral spine.

However, there are some key differences between the movements. Both are valuable exercises to incorporate into your training programme to improve your overall strength and conditioning.

Please make sure you are familiar with the squat before moving onto learning the deadlift and recognise the differences between the two movements, to read our blog on the squat click here.

THE SQUAT: PRINCIPLE MOVEMENT

4/11/2020

4 Comments

 

SHOULD WE SQUAT?

This exercise is considered a vital element of most training routines and is the foundation for many more advanced movements including the Clean & Jerk, Wall Balls, Thrusters etc. Furthermore, the disciplines learnt from squatting properly will be transferable to most other movements both inside and outside the gym.

​Modern lifestyle (sitting in chairs & lazy bending down to lift heavy objects etc) means we fall into bad postural habits as we get older but if you watch a child squat, their movement is instinctive, comfortable and with good technique. That ease of movement is what we want to recapture and master.
​How else are you going to get out of your chair independently when you’re 100?
