A soccer player must have a strong core and strong legs. To achieve this, there are several exercises available with Bow Flex.
Center:
Most athletes need a solid core to develop. As with any construction, if the core is weak, no amount of work on the outside can overcome that weakness.
The core of your body consists of your abdomen and some back muscles. As you probably already know, the best exercises to strengthen the abdomen are the abdominals.
The Bow Flex Ultimate 2 home gym has the widest range of exercises, including sit-ups. Strengthening your core is simple with these exercises:
Reverse crunch
Weathered reverse crunch
Sitting abdominal
Sitting oblique crunch
Ab crunch with accessory
Trunk rotation
Standing oblique crunch
Legacy:
The most important tool a footballer has are his legs. After building a solid core, it’s time to start working on your legs. With the Bow Flex, you can perform these exercises to strengthen your legs:
Leg extension
Lying leg extension
Squat (with accessory)
Thrust
Ankle eversion
Ankle inversion
Standing hip abduction
Standing hip extension
Seated hip abduction
Calf press
Leg press
Leg curls and more
These will increase the strength and power to kick and maneuver the ball around the field.
Another exercise:
If you have ever seen a soccer game, you know that there are many things and that is running from one side of the field to the other. This requires a lot of stamina and endurance. While building and strengthening muscles is important, building endurance is perhaps just as important.
A great way to achieve this is with the Bow Flex Tread Climber. This machine combines the work of a treadmill with the movement of a stairclimber. All of this is wrapped in a smooth elliptical motion that is gentle on the joints. Raising your heart rate and building long-distance endurance is very easy.
Bow Flex has the complete package for any athlete and that includes soccer players. If you’re an aspiring gamer, do yourself a favor and train using one or both of these great Bow Flex machines.
