Join Juliana ambassador and fitness + mindfulness coach Robin Vieira for a mountain bike mobility flow. This sequence targets the hips to help us feel more comfortable on the bike as we navigate corners, technical rock gardens and much more. Grab a mat and get ready to get loose!

The Workout: Mobility
This workout is intended to support you in safely and confidently moving around the bike while cornering and tackling tech sections.

Equipment: a mat
Why: When we’re moving through technical terrain, we must be able to move our bodies around our bikes to maintain balance as we keep the bike moving through peanut butter mud, over rocks, or up and over roots/down trees. Cornering also requires us to move the bike in order to keep the grippiest part of our tires in contact with the ground and prevent sliding out - which means our bodies must then counter this movement to prevent us (and the bike) from falling into the turn.

Workout:
Repeat these exercises three times:
Goblet Squats (6/side)
Wild Things (6/side)
Cossack squat w/ knee drop (6/side)
Lunge Twists (6/side)
Kneeling hip openers (6)

Please keep in mind that if you are new to strength training, we highly recommend trying all movements out with no weight at first. Please take care of your body and be mindful of any previous injuries.
