Static exercises are exercises that are really not very long in duration, the effect of their use, if the technique is performed correctly.
The “plank” exercise
“Lunges.” Honestly, I do not know what it is called, I specialize in performance and performance, and I came up with the name right now.
The technique of doing the “lunge”.
Starting position. With the right leg do a deep lunge forward. Left leg straightened behind, resting on the toe. Arms out to the sides, like the wings of a bird in flight. Keep the back upright and straight. Looking forward.
After standing, take an upright position, have a short rest, walk around shaking your arms and legs. After a rest take the starting position, switching legs in places (left lunge forward, right one straightened behind). It does not matter which leg to start with, but if you are using this exercise every day, start from the opposite leg from the previous day.
Mistakes. High landing. The front leg should have an angle at the knee of about 90 degrees. Remember, it is better to stand less, but at once with the right technique. The back leg is bent at the knee. Try to keep the leg as straight as possible. Rolling the body. Keeping the back, do not lay forward on the knee. Lowered arms. Keep them perpendicular to the body. Look at the ground. Looking forward. Back, neck, head in a straight line.
Despite the fact that the exercise is performed motionless, from the side we should look like a fighter jet, bursting into the sky, not a sourpuss at the start.
Left foot forward, right foot backward, arms out to the sides, looking forward. Front view. In my right hand I have a time clock. Stand for one minute at a time. Change legs after a short rest. I do this exercise at every exercise now. And if my exercises are going without skipping, every day, then I start doing the lunge with different legs. Front view with the right foot in front. Keeping track of time.
P. S. I think a lot of people have seen a variation of this exercise in dynamics. That’s when we do the forward movement through the lunges. Sometimes it is performed with weights in the hands. I will show and explain this type of “lunge” separately, now I will simply say that they are different exercises and it is not correct to compare them, as some do. It is about the same as comparing what is better and more effective than a barbell or push-ups.
