Move through a slightly extended sculpt class using a block and wrist weights, designed to build control, coordination, and full body awareness.
We begin with two blocks focused on gentle core and upper body activation, incorporating coordinated movements such as dead bugs to set the tone for the class.
From there, we transition into a side lying position, using the block as feedback for spinal, hip, and ankle alignment as it balances on the outer thigh. This sequence challenges the glute medius, shoulders, and obliques, before super setting the same muscle groups in a four point position with added coordination through bird dog variations.
After repeating on the second side, we finish with an express standing sequence, including sumo squats, overhead block reaches, oblique twists, and pulses for a strong, full body finisher.
