Have you ever thought about incorporating different planes of movement into your training? 🤔
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Aka👉🏻 Instead of forward walking lunges, what about side to side?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When it comes to movement, you can physically move in 3 different planes 👉🏻 Frontal, sagittal & transverse. Incorporating all of them into your training ensures you're moving your body through its full range of motion. 🏋🏼♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
➖ The frontal plane splits your body into front & back halves. Any lateral movements occurs in this plane. Ex. Side to side lunges, shuffling or chest flys.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
➖ The sagittal plane splits your body into left & right halves. Any forward or backward movements occurs in this plane. Ex. Front/back lunges, squats, deadlift & bench press.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
➖ The transverse plane splits your body into top & bottom halves. Typically any twisting movement will occur in this plane. Ex. Sledgehammer swings or abdominal rotational twists.
