exercises for pool players

That was GREAT!

I believe in stretching and will add some or all of these to my regular exercise program.

I can tell that Jodie girl is really fit.

At my next tournament I can't wait to do the Atlas Lunge before the match and then after the win, The High Skip. (Guaranteed to go viral if livestreamed).

Stretching before doing a short cardio warm up is a sure way to hurt yourself. Do ten minutes of cardio to get some blood running into your muscles and around your joints. Stretching without cardio is like taking a rubber band out of the freezer and stretching it. Your muscles can snap. Especially the lower back. Incorporate resistance training. It improves balance and is like money in the bank for overall fitness.
 
Im gonna do this right before my first match at the next tournament or next time I get in action...

In all seriousness... this is good advice, back problems are a sonofa*****, especially for pool players.

Strengthen your core for a better back. Your core is the girdle that holds your back in place.
 
After the tournament is over, ask the first, second, and third place finishers if they, by chance, did any warm-up exercises before competition began. Or, if they do any exercising at all, for that matter.
You know what they'll say, don't you. :rolleyes:
 
WTF...? they left out the 12oz curls. One of my favorites.


Great video....thanks.

I give that a ditto.

I always jump on my mini-tramp (kept under my table) as my first exercise. I start slow and increase speed as I go. During the intervals, I do some resistance stuff.

It really helps my game and my back.

Haven't heard that before but it makes sense.
