Bilateral Dumbbell Swing with Bungee Row :: Move of the Week 3/21

2/24/2022

0 Comments

 
This week's Movement of the Week is the Bilateral Dumbbell Swing with Bungee Row.  In this movement you will be working with the coordination of the right and left side of the body. 

We have been practicing incorporating an equal and opposite push / pull with other movements up to this point, and now you will be intentionally working with each motion on opposite sides using a bungee and dumbbell to create resistance.

This movement focuses on three components:
  • A hinge at the hips, focusing to maintain a flat, neutral spine.
  • A swing with the dumbbell, focusing on using the hips and glutes to create power as you bring the dumbbell up overhead with tall posture.
  • A row, continuing to focus on strong engagement of the lat muscle, keeping the elbow in line with the torso.

As you pull into the row, engaging the lat on one side of the body you're simultaneously pushing the dumbbell overhead using the glutes to create momentum through the swing on the opposite side of the body.

This movement feels really good as you find the flow through the movement and I am confident that you'll have a lot of fun practicing this movement.
3/14 - Bilateral Dumbbell Swing with Bungee Row - Movement of the Week Explainer by Allison Hopkins
Here's your checklist:

1. Start in a bilateral stance, feet hip width apart.
2. Hold the bungee in one hand, pulled into the row position.
3. Hold the dumbbell in the opposite hand, with the arm extended overhead.
4. As you hinge forward, swing the dumbbell along the side of your body while simultaneously extending the rowing arm out in front of you.
5. Reverse the movement by driving through the hips to power the dumbbell back up over head while simultaneously pulling the bungee into a row.
6. Have fun!
