An answered question

I asked a question on our Facebook page yesterday https://www.facebook.com/pages/PT-Fitness/159676520776391 directed at Ladies about what they would prefer:
(1) Firm Butt (2) Tight Abs (3) Solid Triceps

Today I answered with an easy solution for all three.

A good solution to the question I asked yesterday would be to do thrusters, this exercise hits all three areas hard and fast, use a bar as this will engage the core more than dumbbell's, the squat section of the exercise, effectively a front squat, puts a huge strain on the core to keep you upright, (Tight abs, tick!) and to perform the exercise correct the posterior muscles of your legs will be working harder the anterior, the final part of the squat will require you to open your hips fully to start the thrust, (Firm butt, tick!) then, although only a minor muscle being used, the triceps will be engaged for the full lock out, (Solid triceps, tick!) get thrusting!


To show this point I'd like to add a you tube clip of a crossfit enthusiast, and star! performing thrusters as part of a routine know as "Fran"!!

Enjoy
