The Hundred exercise is the perfect blend of the breath work in conjunction with spinal flexion, abdominal strength, and shoulder girdle movement. Now these movement principles need to be warmed up to and honed separately before they can be put together within one exercise. So although in theory The Hundred is the perfect kick start to any workout by getting the blood pumping and the diaphragm moving with a focus on firing the deep abdominals, these goals can hardly be achieved when the ground work of the different skill sets are hard to find. So watch this video and learn to pick apart The Hundreds to really achieve the essence of what the exercise is designed to do.
