35 MINUTE FULL BODY STRENGTH: LIGHT + MEDIUM WEIGHTS + OPTIONAL AW
36m
A 35 minute class using light weights (2-3kg) and an individual medium weight (4-6kg) to build total body strength and stability.
We start with a crouch to push up warm up, incorporating weighted shoulder taps to engage the core, upper back and triceps. Using our medium weight, we come into a flowing standing strength sequence consisting of lateral and curtsey lunges, paired with thoracic rotation, single arm bicep curls and overhead presses.
Lowering the heart rate, we come down to a short kneeling upper body sequence, targeting the biceps, shoulders, and triceps. Here you can expect movements such as bicep curls, lateral offerings, palm flip rotations, chest fly to tricep sweeps. We repeat the lunging sequence on the other side and finish with a weighted thigh stretch. Expect a balanced, full body burn with posture, strength, stability and endurance challenged simultaneously.
