While we spend most of our time on the big movers such as squats and deadlifts, there is great value in accessory movements. These movements provide variance in our training, are less taxing on the nervous system – allowing us to add volume to training, and helps us work weaknesses or imbalances. If core strength is limiting our ability to do toes to bar, adding in accessory work like flutter kicks on top of toes to bar practice will move us in the right direction while keeping it constantly varied.
