Description

The ¼ Reverse Turkish Get-up is a unique movement that can be used as a tool to train for a Turkish Get-up, or it can be done for its own sake, to train shoulder strength and core stability.

Each rep starts with the bell in the overhead position. Once stable, move the opposite leg behind you (distance about the width of two of your own feet). From there, place your rear leg's knee on the ground.

While maintaining control over the bell, drop your free arm to the side and place your palm on the ground. This is the bottom of this movement. From here, move back up by reversing the order of instructions.

Although the ¼ Reverse TGU is not as comprehensive as the full version, a lot of strength, stability, and proprioception can be gained by repeating this relatively simple movement.
