ON THE FLIP SIDE

The tyre flip is the ultimate functional strength exercise for true athletic prowess. There isn’t a single muscle this exercise won’t recruit and strengthen, and the triple extension required – where you extend at the ankles, knees and hips – develops power from the ground up. Once your lower body has got the tyre up, use your biceps to finish the job – and guarantee a bonus arm pump in the process.

NOVEMBER 2021 TYRE TECHNIQUE: • Protect your back by taking a wide stance and getting low. • Dig your fingers under the tyre and drive up with your glutes. • Drive forward to finish the rep, or lower the tyre if you’re short on space.
