Welcome to our weekly Move of the Week series. Every Monday, we’ll be sharing with you one of our favourite exercises – how to do them, what muscles they work and why they should be a regular part of your workout regime. This week: front rack march.
“Front rack” just means holding weights in front of your body (often up by the collar bone), rather than by your sides or on the upper back. Because of the more unusual position, you’ll find that most front rack exercises require more core strength than leg strength.
A front rack march, however, requires you to switch on those core muscles while working the leg muscles. You’ve got to stand up correctly under a heavy load, while staying strong in the shoulders and upper back and moving those legs one by one – improving balance.
