Expect deep core activation and upper body endurance throughout this short but effective class using light and medium weights as well as our Pilates ball.
We begin with a kneeling upper body sequence featuring underhand grip rows, rear delt flys, shoulder presses and sweeping arm movements to strengthen the shoulders, upper back and chest.
From there, we move into two single sided strength blocks combining oblique rotation knee hovers with weighted overhead presses, challenging core stability, shoulder strength and control.
The class concludes with a side plank series targeting the obliques, shoulders and upper body stabilisers before repeating on the second side.
