A full body, feel good class designed around intentional movement as we lay the foundations for Trimester 1.
We begin in a supine position to gently activate the deep core through chest lifts, alternating tabletop marches and leg extensions. From there, we move into a side-lying sequence targeting the glute medius, obliques and shoulders, adding a light weighted dumbbell sweep for an extra challenge.
A short 4 point kneeling series builds strength through single leg lifts, weighted rows and tricep extensions, before flowing into a static lunge to hinge superset to further fatigue the glutes. We then repeat on the second side to finish.
