[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]TEXT: DAC (NS) MOHAMMED AZHAR BIN YUSOF, ASP (NS) MUHAMMAD ZAKI BIN HYDER & ANNABELLE BOK
\nPHOTOS: 123RF.COM <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\u201cNo count! No count!\u201d<\/p>\n

This dreaded call during IPPT push-ups and sit-ups is brought on by incorrect or inconsistent body position, which stems from either erroneous technique (fix this by reading our March\/April Shape Up article<\/a>) or poor physical conditioning.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]So what\u2019s the solution? Improve both your core body strength and flexibility \u2013 two things that many NSmen neglect when training for IPPT.<\/p>\n

Core strength and flexibility also help you maintain good form throughout the 2.4km run, improving your running economy and overall performance, and protecting you from getting injured easily. They\u2019re also needed for daily activities like picking up things from the ground.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#dd7e7e”][vc_single_image image=”5784″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]1.<\/span><\/strong> Get into push-up position, then rest your forearms on the ground. Elbows should be at 90-degree angle<\/strong> directly under your shoulders.<\/p>\n

2.<\/span><\/strong> Straighten body into a clean line from head to feet. Hold position for as long as possible \u2013 30 seconds<\/strong> for beginners is OK.<\/p>\n

3.<\/span><\/strong> Aim for 10<\/strong> reps, slowly working up to longer holds \u2013 2 minutes<\/strong> per plank is ideal.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]Intensify <\/span><\/strong>– Widen your stance and\/or brace yourself on your hands instead of forearms.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#dd7e7e”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5803″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]1.<\/span><\/strong> Lie on your stomach. Bring legs together and extend arms overhead \u2013 biceps alongside your ears.<\/p>\n

2.<\/span><\/strong> Tighten back and butt muscles to raise legs and torso off the ground. Keep legs and arms straight, and stretch fingers away from you.<\/p>\n

3.<\/span><\/strong> Hold for 5 seconds<\/strong>, then slowly lower into relaxed position. Aim for 10 reps.<\/p>\n

Intensify<\/span><\/strong> – Lift only right arm and left leg for first rep, then left arm and right leg for second rep, and keep alternating.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#dd7e7e”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5807″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]1.<\/span><\/strong> Lie on your back with hands by your side, knees bent, and feet flat on ground directly under knees.<\/p>\n

2.<\/span><\/strong> Tighten your abs and butt, and raise hips to make a straight line from knees to shoulders. Hold as long as possible, then drop back down.<\/p>\n

3.<\/span><\/strong> Aim for 2 sets of 10 reps<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Intensify <\/span><\/strong> – Squeeze your core together (visualise pulling your belly button into your spine). Work up to holding each bridge for 30 seconds. You can also add weights.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#dd7e7e”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5809″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]1.<\/span><\/strong> Get on all fours, with knees under hips and hands under shoulders, keeping spine neutral and relaxed.<\/p>\n

2.<\/span><\/strong>Tighten abs (pull belly button towards spine) and raise right arm and left leg straight out \u2013 body should be in a straight line from fingers to toes.<\/p>\n

3.<\/span><\/strong> Return to starting position and repeat with opposite arm and leg. Do 2 sets of 10 reps<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Intensify<\/span><\/strong> – Work out on a bench instead of on the floor.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#dd7e7e”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”5811″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]1.<\/span><\/strong> Lie on your back with hands resting palms down (parallel with shoulders), knees bent, and feet flat on the ground.<\/p>\n

2.<\/span><\/strong> Raise feet off the floor, keeping knees bent at 90 degrees (neutral position). Keeping the abs tight and shoulders on the ground, drop both knees towards the left as far you can manage without pain.<\/p>\n

3.<\/span><\/strong> Using trunk and core muscles, pull back to neutral position and repeat on the right. Do 10 reps.<\/p>\n

Intensify <\/span><\/strong>– Hold furthest point of stretch for at least 5 seconds each rep.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator color=”custom” accent_color=”#dd7e7e”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_custom_heading text=”Training for HomeTeamNS’ Most Supportive Division events? ” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23dd1111″ google_fonts=”font_family:Averia%20Sans%20Libre%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”5813″ img_size=”large”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Clip \u2018n Climb \u2013 the latest and arguably most popular event in the annual MSD competition<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\n

Last year, Team ProCom, led by ASP (NS) Muhammad Zaki bin Hyder, won both the NSF and NSman categories.<\/p>\n

Zaki says many of his team members had no prior climbing experience, but had good functional strength (core strength and flexibility). It was hence easy to turn them into good climbers.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the first few training sessions, we focused on climbing techniques. I just needed to \u2018re-wire\u2019 their brains to a climber\u2019s perspective and they developed very quickly.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany people think climbing is just about having strong arms or upper-body strength, but it actually requires the whole body. We emphasise using the legs rather than relying solely on arm strength,\u201d Zaki adds.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Clearly, improving one\u2019s overall fitness isn\u2019t just useful for IPPT. So stop making excuses and shape up today![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
