Tire Flip — quadriceps compound exercise in the LIFTAG library

Tire Flip

Compound · Weight × reps · Time

MUSCLES WORKED

  • PRIMARY
  • SECONDARY

Inspect the tire and clear a wide, unobstructed lane before starting. As it rises, step closer, move your hands to the front, and push it past the balance point. Choose a tire you can move without jerking or rounding your back. This is a compound full-body movement that places high demands on the legs and hips while the back, shoulders, arms, grip, and core assist.

HOW TO DO TIRE FLIP

  1. Stand close to the tire in a stable stance, lower your hips, and grip beneath its lower edge with your hands inside your knees.
  2. Brace your trunk, press your chest and shoulders into the tire, and drive through the ground while extending your knees and hips to move it forward and upward.
  3. Keep your arms firm instead of trying to curl the tire.
  4. Keep clear of the landing area and wait until the tire stops before beginning the next repetition.
