Jobsite Fitness? How to Get a Full Work Out with No Equipment! Fitness Fridays

What happens here

Before beginning any upper body exercises, especially push-ups, it's crucial to warm up your shoulders. The presenter demonstrates shoulder stretches using an extension pole, similar to a PVC pipe used in gyms. The movements involve extending the pole overhead and rotating arms to loosen up shoulder joints, ensuring they are ready for action. If you've been working all day, you might already be warmed up.

Goal: Before starting push-ups, warm up your shoulders using an extension pole to prevent injury and prepare muscles for exertion.

All right, we're going to get ready to start our push up workout. One thing you want to do prior to starting during your pushups, you want to give your shoulders a good warm up. This is where you can take an extension pole. If you're warmed up from working all day long, you don't have to do a warm up. But I do, before I start doing any upper body workouts, I like to stretch out my shoulders. You can do some simple exercises and warmups, getting those shoulders stretched out and ready for exercise in an extension pole in the gym. We actually use a PVC pipe, but right here, I got an extension pole, something that you'll have at the job site to stretch out with. Get those shoulders all nice loosened up, stretched out, warmed up, ready to go for action.
