Jamie Staff Prehab/Strength workout

GuardianUk

Jamie Staff, former British Olympian in Team Sprints and now (US Cycling Sprint Coach) performs a workout which is called Prehab by Mark Verstegen, as described on his site:

"Prehab is a proactive approach to avoiding pain and injury. You’ll build strength and stability around your most vulnerable areas, while improving mobility, balance and joint function to decrease the potential for injuries. Prehab exercises strengthen your most vulnerable areas that get stressed in everyday movement: your hips, core and shoulders. Also known as your “pillar,” strengthening these areas will improve posture and alignment, allowing your joints to move more efficiently. You’ll also build up your most injury-prone areas before you’re struck with chronic aches and pain that may, in the worst cases, require surgery."....... more
