Odd strength work. Not a community favorite but certainly a needed stimulus in our world today. Want to age in a healthy way? Want to increase shoulder stability so you can lift heavier weights? Want to improve your overhead squat and build more core strength? Then the solution to all of these is the Turkish Get up. Do it with quality and find a challenging load! Don’t miss extending the hip all the way before sneaking you leg back into the lunge position. After we finish the odd strength, we condition and today we keep it simple.
