6 Low Impact Exercises | Exercises For Beginners

When you’re first starting out, or even first starting back to training, it can be so easy to jump in and end up doing moves we aren’t yet ready for.

Not only can this make us so sore we struggle to get consistent with our training, but it can also lead to injury while holding us back from achieving results.

As stinky as it is to have to sometimes go back to basics, we need to regress to progress and master those fundamental movement patterns first.

We need to make sure we’re doing everything we can to build our mind-body connection so we aren’t just going through the motions with moves but actually using the correct muscles to power the movements.

This will not only help us rebuild faster, but it can even help us build up stronger.

We have to remember that every movement is earned and built off of these basics.

That’s why I wanted to share 6 fundamental moves I not only return to myself and use as part of my workouts but use with any of my clients rebuilding after time off or just starting back.

These bodyweight moves can help you get in a full-body workout and retrain a variety of movement patterns from pressing to pulling to hip hinging and squatting!

My husband and I (who were active gym peeps) got the covid. We were very sick for 3 weeks. It also took another two weeks to get our wind back because of the shortness of breath and lung damage. Anyway, we lost muscle and strength. This is video is a wonderful suggestion on how to get back. Thank you, Cori!

Cori your "sometimes you've got to regress to progress" is some of the wisest words out there. And I never thought of the bulldog as something that can be done if you are having issues doing squats because of your knees. But that makes so much sense though. Thank you for that and for the adorably funny image of your dog chasing it's tail and falling over. That was just hilarious in the cutest way.❤

Perfect timing. Restarting after a slug like summer and an illness and i know i can't pick up where i left off. This gives me a starting point.

I cannot stress enough the importance of the "arrow shape" Cori mentioned for push-ups. It may be easier to flare out your elbows (T-shape) but this is not a safe position for the shoulder, which is a weak and unstable joint. Lots of people get injured doing push-us and bench presses with flared elbows. If the arrow position is too hard, there is no shame in using a wall or bench (as shown in the video) to make it easier.

Also, using a wall for the hip hinge is probably the best tip I've come across when teaching others how to correctly hinge. It's more important to go "back" instead of "down" so you don't injure your lower back. This is especially true for high-waisted, short-torso people like me; getting my torso parallel to the ground is hard to do without rounding my back--but this doesn't matter as long as the glutes are extended behind you!

This is pure gold, exactly what I need right now to start training again. All the key concepts are there: regress to progress, mind-body connection, recruitment patterns, fundamental moves. Thank you so much Cori! You’re awesome!

Your photography looks great and your pup is always a cool finish to your technical insight and sound advice. 😊

Nice subtle tips on improving mobility and strength. I will try these because my left hand wrist pains between radius and scaphoid after doing intensive exercises.

Excellent for those starting out. Now all we need is a similar video on proper low impact warming up... before heading to the six moves in this video.

Thank you Cori! I'm on the recovery side of 6 weeks out with Lyme and was struggling to return to my normal workouts. I did a modified version of your workout this morning and it was perfect. - Larry

Thank you for the information. I recently recovered from Covid and I noticed that my muscles feel really weak and unstable. I wanted to jump back into Crossfit full on, but I knew that it would be too strenuous. This was the reminder that it's okay to start from the basics that I needed.
