Exercise your core in Nike Free Transform Flyknit

We've taken a closer look at five different women's training shoes from Nike. PT Jessica Clarén shows exercises that are tailor-made for each model. Which shoe is right for you?

Nike trainer Jessica Clarén has laced up her Nike Free Transform Flyknit and shows three exercises that will make your abs burn!

The flexibility and grip of Nike Free Transform Flyknit's sole makes it perfect for plank exercises, among other things. So Jessica Clarén shows you three exercises that strengthen your core. Challenge yourself and see how much you can do!

1. Plank with weight shifting

Remember: - When you do the plank, you should have the same natural posture as when you stand up. If you want to make the exercise heavier, you can activate your whole body by tensing up from your shoulder blades down to your feet, which makes it really hard and trains your whole body.

Good for: Core stability (from the neck to below the hip).

Number of repetitions: Rock back and forth as many times as you can while maintaining control 30-60 seconds x 3.

2. Side plank with leg lift and rotation.

Remember: - Keep your body in a straight line from your head to your feet so you don't push your hip up too high or let it drop too low. To make the exercise easier, place one leg in front of you; to make the exercise more challenging, lift your top leg.

Good for: A total exercise that trains the whole body, especially your core stability. The more you tense your whole body during the exercise, the more effect you get.

Number of repetitions: 30-60 seconds x3 on each side. Do as many arm rotations and leg lifts as you can without losing control.

3. Animal flow / dynamic warm-up

Keep in mind: - To work in the entire range of motion and not move with your feet but challenge your weak links. When swinging through your leg, make sure you keep contact with your torso! Each time you do the exercise, you will notice that you become more mobile.

Good for: Core stability, mobility and flexibility.

Number of repetitions: 6-8 times per side x 3.

The differences between Nike Free Transform Flyknit and Nike Free Tr 6

HERE you will find the Sportamore range of Nike Free Transform Fly knit.

Nike The Free Transform Flyknit can be described as Nike Free Tr 6 slightly more elaborate sister shoe. The biggest visible difference between the two shoe models is that Nike Free Transform Flyknit has an upper in Flyknit material that goes a little higher on the ankle and gives a sock-like feeling when you have it on your foot.

- The upper is knitted so that it flexes well in forward shifts but does not stretch sideways. And because it goes higher on the ankle, you will find that it gives a sense of more stability," says Stine Tomb, product specialist at Nike.

Material-wise, the Nike Free Transform Flyknit is constructed with two layers of foam material. If you compare the two shoe models below, you will see that the Transform Flyknit has a sparser pattern on the sole which makes the shoes more cushioned and a little more flexible compared to Nike Free Tr 6.

- Nike Free Transform Flyknit has the same use as Nike Free Tr 6 but Nike Free Tr 6 does not have as much cushioning and not the same premium feel as Transform Flyknit. Nike The Free Transform Flyknit is suitable for the customer who wants a sock-like upper and a shoe that is cushioned but so flexible that it is like a barefoot feeling.
