ViPR Running Program

This document provides instructions for 12 different exercises using the ViPR fitness equipment. Each exercise lists preparation steps which include grips to use and range of motion considerations. The movement instructions describe the body motions for each exercise. Regressions and progressions are also outlined to make the exercises easier or more challenging by adjusting speed, weight of equipment or range of motion. The goal is to perform dynamic movements with proper form and rhythm while gradually increasing intensity.

RUNNING PROGRAMME

EXERCISE - 1
Rotatory, Step (Sagittal), Pivot Step
1 2
EXERCISE PREPARATION Assume a two-handed Neutral Hold Pre-determine the length of step and remain consistent throughout the exercise EXERCISE MOVEMENT Begin by taking a comfortable step forwards along the Sagittal plane As you step forwards, rotate ViPR in that direction Perform a Pivot Step this means the forward leg steps through and behind As the foot steps posterior, rotate ViPR in the other direction

EXERCISE PREPARATION Begin with a Front Carry Hold Perform the motion unloaded (i.e., without ViPR) prior to loaded so that the quality of motion can be assessed Pre-determine the range of motion Begin by taking a comfortable out-turn step in the Transverse Plane As you step back rotationally, rotate ViPR and shoulders in the same direction Perform a Transverse plane in-turn Pivot Step and plant Ensure that both big toes are firmly planted on the ground As you plant the Pivot Step, rotate ViPR and shoulders towards the stepping leg Reduce the range of motion in both the Handprint and Footprint it is a good idea to simply perform the out-turn and avoid the in-turn step to begin with Lighter ViPR

EXERCISE - 2

EXERCISE PREPARATION Assume a two-handed Neutral Hold Pre-determine the range of motion and remain consistent throughout the exercise EXERCISE MOVEMENT Begin by taking a comfortable step laterally along the Frontal plane As you step sideways, push ViPR in the opposite Lateral angulation Perform Pivot Step and plant ensure that both big toes are firmly planted on the ground As you Pivot Step, reach with the hands in the opposite direction

EXERCISE PREPARATION Begin with a two-handed Neutral Hold Perform the motion unloaded (i.e., without ViPR) prior to loaded Pre-determine the range of motion Begin in a Staggered Stance Flex at the hips and load ViPR to the trail leg side Begin to extend the hips as you drive ViPR over the opposite shoulder to the trail leg As ViPR drives over the opposite shoulder, ensure that you maintain space in the spine by performing a Posterior Pelvic Tilt Reduce the range of motion in both the Handprint and Footprint it is a good idea to simply perform the hip flexion step to begin Lighter ViPR
