LiftingLindsay's More Than Fitness

Combination moves and Bosu balls and bands around knees - What are their roles in hypertrophy and body recomposition?

Show Notes

It doesn't take much looking around on social media fitness accounts to see people lifting on bosu balls, combo exercises, and banding their knees for every glute exercise. Are these quality hypertrophy exercises though? Do they have a place in your training, and if so how?...

I have learned that people can become very religious about certain influencers they follow, as well as certain exercises and ways of training. i'm here to only point to what the research, experience, and the anatomy in movement show. If you are a busy mom like me, I don't have time to waste in the gym. I love training but I want it to be as optimal as possible. That will make exercise selection very important when we want results and have specific goals.
