Lower Body Stronger: Heavy Weights + Band + Block
LOWER BODY WORKOUTS
•
38m
Weights: 10-15kg + 5-9kg
This lower body Stronger class targets the glutes, quads, calves and hamstrings. We begin with an elevated bridging sequence to activate the glutes and work the calves before coming up to stand. Our standing work is made up of two sets of single side work using the block, and a dynamic bilateral hinge to squat 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!
