This upper body and core class is made up of five sequences of strength based movement targeting the obliques, upper and lower abdominals, shoulders and biceps. Expect to start with a supine core series that slowly builds into a unique flow featuring double leg extensions, knee drives, hammer curls and more, before progressing onto a forearm side plank flow where you'll work through pikes, hip dips, oblique teasers and more. We seperate the two sides with a dynamic box bridge to swivel kick sequence, and finish with a classic kneeling arms set. This workout is shoulder heavy. Please modify as needed to suit your body. Drop your bottom knee for support in a side plank position, or select lighter weights/wrist weights for your kneeling upper body sequence.
This workout is designed to build your physical and mental strength and endurance as we work through layered sequences of flowing movement with minimal rest.
Please remember to listen to your body above all else during your practice. Modify exercises as needed to suit your body and pause the video to take breaks if and when you need to. Leave a layer out if it doesn't feel good for you and remove props if they become too much. Never push through any neck or lower back pain during your movement.
Enjoy!
