An excellent core exercise that doesn’t involve spinal flexion
Hold the kettlebell by your side and walk while engaging your core, like you would if you were carrying a suitcase 😉
The suitcase carry is a simple exercise that targets the muscles in your core, shoulders, upper back, arms, and the muscles of your lower body, specifically the quadriceps, hamstrings, gluts, hip flexors, and calves. It’s also a useful move for improving grip strength.

Simple shoulder blade strengthening exercise to help with neck and shoulder pain
This exercise is the shoulder blade squeeze with an exercise band to help to strengthen to prevent and relieve rib and shoulder pain. This is one of my favourite exercises that I do as a warm up before I lift weights in the gym.
It helps to reduce the head forward and shoulder forward position. And with all of us working at home, online schooling and spending so much time on our phones, this is so important to work on.

Chronic pain relief by strengthening the glut muscles
I see a lot of patients in my office with Chronic Low Back Pain.

A lot of times, we find that the gluts aren’t strong enough to support the low back.
This exercise can help the pain in the low low back by strengthening the gluts.

My husband took this video on the weekend after I did my weight work out, the kids joined me for some cardio fun!
I followed along with Alex’s dance moves and definitely got my heart pumping. Working out doesn’t have to be only weights and exercises. It can be MOVING your body with your family with laughs and smiles.
