6 | Washington Athletic Club Magazine | NOVEMBER / DECEMBER 2015 WAC PERSONAL TRAINER TOBIN BECK demonstrates the Goblet Squat, a great exercise for core strength, glutes, and hamstrings. 1. Position your feet shoulder-width apart as you stand over a vertical dumbbell. 2. Pull your core to the midline and push your knees away from your body as you drop low into squat position and lift dumbbell with both hands. Holding dumbbell close to your chin, squeeze shoulder blades toward each other. 3. Push through your big toes and hips and return to standing position. Keep shoulder blades drawn back. Repeat squat and stand, making sure to focus on your posture. Try 2–3 sets of 8–10 repetitions, depending on ability. { BUZZ } EXERCISE OF THE MONTH 1 3 2 JOIN WAC CATERING from 4–7 pm on Thursday, January 28, and experience the breadth of their work at A Catered Affair.
