Exercise Rights And Wrongs: Mountain Climbers




Angry Trainer Fitness show

Summary: Ready for another Angry Trainer Fitness video everyone? We’ve run a couple of workout programs in a row now so this week we’re taking a break from the circuits to talk about one of my favorite exercises that you should ALL be using at part of your regimes… Few exercises when performed properly provide the same benefits as Mountain Climbers. They work your upper body, especially the shoulders, core and abs, plus a bit of your legs - and your overall endurance. The problem is that most people use horrible form and look more like they’re bouncing up a mountain, than climbing it. Yeah - you know who you are! The Mountain Climber is nothing more than a hand plank in which you rapidly alternate and pull your knees forward. So as a rule, if you can’t hold a great plank for 30 seconds, you’re not ready for the mountain! In this video I’m going to show you the WRONG way to perform Mountain Climbers – and then the RIGHT way. With some simple cuing and direction, you’ll be in perfect form in no time. So what are you waiting for…! By the way – don’t forget to check out my other exercise videos on the Angry Trainer Fitness YouTube Channel!. And if you haven’t already become a subscriber… Alfonso
