1. Split lunge with a high knee, to strengthen quads, ankles, core, and shoulders. Start off in clean position. Drop down to one knee. Explode upward to standing position and draw knee to chest. For an additional challenge, press the bar overhead as you stand up.
2. Hip Extensions with MostFit™ SYN Rings and a Heavy Resistance Band around hips, anchored to something heavy. Start off in a kneeling position with bar in clean position. Lift your hips and thrust hips forward, while keeping core engaged. For an additional challenge, raise bar overhead while lifting and lowering hips. This will create explosive hip extension strength, while strengthening your quads, glutes, core, and shoulders.
Create a new level of intensity with the MostFit™ SYN Rings. SYN Rings require the user to utilize different muscles to engage their core and stabilize because the weight plates or kettle bells are swinging from side to side and bouncing up and down. If you need more, stack more plates on the bar, or hang up to a 45-lb weight from the SYN Rings.

Extend the Core Hammer over head, head end first, as you extend your body vertically. Be sure to keep your core engaged and breathe as you pull the core hammer down and drop your body into a squat position. Slide your right hand down to meet your left before impact. At the top of the rebound pull the Core Hammer into your body and replace your right hand under the head of the Core Hammer. Repeat and enjoy.
