4. Straight Bridge
4. 直桥
The straight bridge is a wonderful exercise for noobs to aspire to master. Whereas leg raises work the entire anterior chain—the muscles at the front of the bod—the straight bridge works the posterior chain. It builds the spinal erectors, reduces low back pain, bulletproofs the spine, trains the hamstrings, and helps heal bad knees. Because the arms are pushing behind the body, this type of bridge also strengthens the “lats” of the back, and the muscles around the shoulder blades—an awesome benefit for those who don’t have a pullup bar. Straight bridges also give ya triceps of steel kid—no more kickbacks necessary.
直桥是对Noob立志追求大师很好的联系。就像举腿是锻炼整个前链---身体前部的肌肉----直桥是锻炼后链的。它锻炼脊椎的肌肉,减少后背疼痛,强化脊椎,锻炼脚筋,帮助恢复受伤的膝盖。因为手臂要在身体后面推,这个形式的桥还强化下背部肌肉和三角肌周围肌肉---对那些没有引体横杠是个很好练习。直桥同样给你钢铁三头肌孩子----不需要额外的练习了。
Once again, alignment is what’s up. Athletes make the straight-body position look easy. It ain’t.
同样的,成直线怎么了。运动员做直桥看起来很容易。其实不容易。
Normally I wouldn’t advise beginners to perform bridges—I think the time and energy is better spent on pulling work, typically on a low horizontal bar. That said, if you don’t have access to a bar, straight bridges can be a good way to work the back muscles.
Bridging can be demanding—so start easy. Commence with short bridges (with the shoulders on the floor), then move totable bridges (straight bridges, but with the knees bent). When ten seconds of perfectly aligned form is easy, start adding seconds—build to 20 seconds, then move to something harder. If straight bridges are too easy, try them with one leg lifted off the floor. That will teach you what your hamstrings were made for.
通常我不建议新手练习桥---我认为这个时间和精力可以华仔拉力训练上,典型的是水平引体。如果你没有横杠,练直桥是很好的锻炼后背肌肉的练习。
桥可以要求很高---还是简单开始。从短桥开始(肩膀着地),然后变型桥(直桥,但屈膝)。一旦10秒钟这个姿势完美了,加秒数---练到20秒,然后再换难点。如果直桥也容易了,试试单腿直桥。那会教会你脚筋是怎么炼成的。
