When doing push-ups, many people make mistakes on where to put their hands and how much to flare their elbows away from the body. There are 2 ways to improve this. One is to stand at a wall and push on the wall (like you are trying to move the wall). You will naturally put your elbows into a good position (at least on how much they are flared away from the body). The second thing is to start your first push-up with your chest on the floor and then place your hands near your shoulders on the floor. You should find that this makes the push-up easier and will reduce the possibility of shoulder injuries over time.
Thankyou for speaking plainly English like a a true Scotsman. I even get the jokes. Very refreshing. I understand where I’ve been going wrong. With no bs . Thankyou
This is helpful. After being off the bike so long, now back on, I do find exactly what you are showing here with hips not rotated forward enough and neck pain from leading with my chin.
What can I say - I wish I'd see this video, like, 10+ years ago when my back got sore after cycling 5km. Strong glutes made me stronger cyclist than I were decade ago and flexibility also plays a big role. I even started to pay attention to pre-ride warm-up and post-ride stretching and never have regretted time spent for it. When you aren't a teen anymore we can't have all benefits of youth, we have to earn fitness and fight back age.
yes coach, as far as i remember, every time i use my hamstring, it easily gets cramped. Now im doing this bridge progression to fix my ITBS, which still existed since 10 years ago 😅
Help! I love the simple routines done consistently. Could you please show me how to incorporate your version of dynamic planks? Wasn’t in this video. Where do I find it?
I think I found where my neck problems come from. I have strong arms and everything but I sat way too much before starting to ride my bike. I think I'll start with these drills tomorrow and then I'll see if that fixes neck pain I get. Also started to do daily stretching and use my height adjustable table multiple times a day. Feels way more healthy but probably a long way to go
Interesting. I've got a couple herniated discs in my lower back around L4-L5. So I've done all the comfot mods, like suspension seatposts, cushy seat, fat tires, lower pressures, shorter stems, etc. I'm good for a few 2 hour rides a week. I love it though, and have 7 bikes now, lol. Once upon a time when I was serious, I was up to 500 miles a week, riding every day. I'm 47 now, and just try to enjoy myself and not get fat, because the weight hurts my back too. I also lift at the gym a few days a week. Cable isolations and such, no lifting off the floor. The one exercise I've found to help, is hanging leg raises. Strengthening your core muscles will support the lower back more. The lower back muscles get plenty of workout while on the bike. Most people forget about the front abdominals. The other helpful thing for me is a massage chair to help loosen up the tight lower back muscles. Tight hamstrings will also mess with your pelvis alignment and add to pain.
I’ve subscribed but please answer this question honestly ( I know you will! ) Would you invest in an electric bike or is this a cop out ? Thank you👍🚲🚲🚲
what about the C shape on the bike? getting the rips towards your belly which also needs core activation. this is a bit contrary to rolling hip forward
How timely....my neck is creaking despite all the adjustments I've made- much shorter, raised stem, max spacers(bike size is correct), narrower bars- with 74mm reach etc... The issue isn't really the bike( Or try and find one with an XS reach and L stack) it's because I need glasses for near and far vision, and to keep my eyes on the road my neck is permanently tilted back or I cannot see properly and in focus, I cannot use my eyes alone to "look up" while my head is more in line with my spine or I'm looking at the frames or out of the field of view. I'm actually thinking my days on drop bars may be coming to an end... (Or need to get out to Prague and get some multifocal lens implants.... I'm serious about that)....Aged just 56(on Monday)...It could be the fact I'm 170cm with an axle to saddle height of 870mm(short body) and have a 63cm head, it's like a bloody medicine ball and starting to regret my heavy metal headbanging days over 40 years ago lol!!
Life is too short to ride a bike that’s uncomfortable, get the front raised or do as I did, buy a road wheelset & slicks and use a gravel bike as a road bike. 60 y/o and did a 300k Audax last week.
I would like to give your a thumb's up, but I am unable to find the like button, it has disappeared. This is also happenning with other videos from otther channels. Maybe youtube removed it?
If the majority of cyclist adopted this workout in their daily routine; IMO it would lead to a bigger performance gain than a new 10k bike. Including me. LOL.
Posture is largely genetics. Very old and outdated non scientific information here. Whatscthe point if squeezing the glute in its weakest position at the top of a squat? You ideally want your ribcage stacked over the pelvis in a squat. Not chest up in a hyper extended position.

We had a chemistry teacher with this much energy. Every class for 4 years. Nearly everyone in the class got an A
Coach..Thanks for information and the very entertaining delivery. It made me smile and laugh. Don't ever change. Good on ya.
favorite number of coach is 666🤭
Awesome tips. Love the no nonsense approach. Thanks Scott

also rotate your hands outward a bit to naturally bring your elbows in

Solid advice 👊. Great content, appreciate the tips.
Thanks for the lesson. I do about half of your workout every day. I need to incorporate more

This is my body at the moment glutes aren’t working and haven’t for a while pain in the neck as well will give this a go thanks for the advice

Rocky 4 in the background! Love it.

There you go again!! Man, I felt like you were talking to me. Incorporating the workout tm morning before my ride...Thanks again.
i dont know what's with you but i like how you taught us helps a lot thanks buddy 😁
Helpful and funny, best coach ever!
Love the content! Funny and informative! Keep up the good work!
Excellent video!! Super informative!!
Subscribed as you called me a fanny. I am, you're right.
When doing your bridges, place your palms upwards to stop the temptation from using them to push you up.

Nice. Going to try some glute bridges
Great drills! OG
"Glutes of Sh#t" sounds like the sequel to "Buns of Steel" 😉

sometimes the hip movement is from the saddle is in an improper position
Coach my bikes has no drops, how do I roll my pelvis forward?
No pun intended. I really need to know.
Great stuff! Do you have a video/ link to the plank drills you mentioned?
Is it possible to put these in Training Peaks? I think it would help me complete them everyday.
enjoyed this video
Does the time of exercise matter?
What will be optimal if I ride a bike afternoon? Do the drill in the morning before breakfast?
I'm doing less biking. More weights. I'm exhausted from biking and heat Hills. Forget it 😅
I have a "head like a melon", and I endorse that comment.😂😂
Motivation came from Rocky.

@@br5380 well done on the audax
Do you like the orbea bike ?
'Feed two birds with one scone'.
I do "butt crunches" at my desk and in the car...squeeze the glutes and release over n over

Push ups. Next.
Good tips, strange language. I hope i have the right idea what a "bake" is.

You can kill birds and I watched my father get 3 birds with 1 shot!
I'm interested in the information and I don't mind the entertainment but too much random nonsense to get to the information.
This title is a refreshing change after ppl constantly telling me to stop damaging THEIR bodies. As if the whole world is all about them
“Your glutes are a pile of shit” I laughed
10 hours with a spine in flexion can’t be good for a spine.
Jeez Coach, you still haven't made the decision to clean up your language. C'mon man!
you just get a real bike a MTB not a gay bike and your back and shoulders will not hurt becose u dont lean forward and u dont have T-rex arms
3:55 I had a co-worker who would say "feed two birds with one scone"
Hey’ll! Ay hope may pay’ll vis well heel oop! Or else, ay won’t be able to raid me bake!!
