Modified Tower of Power (knee-friendly)
Modified Tower of Power (For Knee Pain)
If you have knee pain trouble, here is a Modified Tower of Power Workout that's easier on the knees for you to do during FM30X Phase #2 Month #2.
Modified Tower of Power: Same X, +1, +1, +1, -1, -1, X Format
- Exercise #1: Reverse Lunge==> KB/DB Glute Bridge
- Exercise #2: Romanian Deadlift
- Exercise #3: Good Morning
- Exercise #4: Front Squat==> Modified Sumo Squat
- Exercise #5: Push Press
- Exercise #6: Bent-Over Row
- Exercise #7: Push-ups
The Mom Strong workout during FM30X Phase #2M2 should be fine as is, with the exception of the Squat movement. Instead, simply swap in a Romanian deadlift as you already do in ToP, using heavier weight since it is a strength routine.
As always, if you experience ANY pain during these motions please stop exercising. Don't push through pain that feels like it's from a joint/injury. Muscle burning is fine, but we need to make sure you're not causing damage.
As always, please consult with your doctor to get medical advice on your specific situation. This substitution workout is simply a suggestion for informational purposes only - not a direct recommendation for you.
