  1. STRENGTH & STABILITY STRENGTH & STABILITY STRENGTH & STABILITY EXERCISES EXERCISES EXERCISES INFOGRAPHIC DESIGNED & BROUGHT TO YOU BY BossTargets.com forBOW SHOOTING forBOW SHOOTING BOW SHOOTING for After a day at the shooting range with a few buddies, I realized my shots getting sloppier as the day went on. My arms and shoulders became slightly numb over the course of just a few shots. The strings on my bow are relatively new but, I didn’t have the necessary upper body strength to hold the bow stable enough before I take the shot. I realized that body stability together with hand/eye coordination are a few of the deciding factors that go into the perfect shot. A few days after, I told my sister about what I realized and she recommended that I come with her to the gym and consult a trainer about body strengthening and stability. I took her advice and the trainer really helped, and it was because I had a clear reason for why I wanted to get better! I learned that there are muscles in the body that work together to make a straight and more stable shot for archery. Here are a few exercises you can do to improve your balance, stability and strength for a perfect shot on a bow and arrow. Rotational Pull Down Bar Twist This is an exercise performed on the pull down bar if you are working out on a gym but it can also be with a stretch band tied to a pole or a door knob. This exercise improves rotational balance as you pull the bow. Affected muscle groups for this exercise Trapezius Deltoids Biceps Brachii Serratus Anterior Triceps brachii Latissimus Dorsi Abdominal External Gluteus Oblique Biceps Femoris / Semitendinosus Rectus Femoris 1 SHOULDERS STRAIGHT Face the stretch band with your feet apart perpendicular to band’s mounting point for even weight distribution on the left and right sides. CHEST OUT BICEPS VSQUEEZED ELBOW TO RIBCAGE SLIGHTLY ARCHED BACK 2 ABDOMINALS TIGHT MAINTAINED TORSO POSITION (RIGHT) Keep your body as straight as possible as pull the band towards your armpits with shoulder and your waist. The opposite shoulder should be closer to the band’s mounting point. Hold this position for at least 1 second while maintaining a straight back. PULL POSITION (LEFT VIEW) FIXED KNEE TO FOOT POSITION HOLD POSITION MIDWAY FOR 1 SECOND 3 Slowly release back to the stretched arm position and repeat at least 12 repetitions or until you reach your strength limit. Do the same for the opposite side. FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT: BossTargets.com Join us on: SOURCE: https://bosstargets.com/strength-stability-pulldown-twist/
