In this full body stronger class, expect a combination of slow, controlled strength work and a dynamic standing finisher designed to challenge both muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness.
Using our heaviest weight, we begin with a double leg bridge and calf raise series before progressing into single leg bridges layered with extensions, sweeps and pulses to create a deep burn through the glutes and hamstrings. We separate sides with two core focused blocks: the first uses a heavy weight overhead to challenge the deep and lower abdominals through marches, leg extensions and a weighted chest press, while the second features weighted roll backs, around the world rotations and Russian twists using a medium weight.
To finish, we bring everything to standing for a fast paced full body finisher.
Expect to finish feeling strong, accomplished and energised. While the final sequence is designed to challenge you, remember to listen to your body, take breaks when needed and move at a pace that feels right for you.
