Just Work it - Week 2
Just Work It

47m
In this 2nd week of “Just Work It”, we build on the positional breathing work from last week.
We practice some calf & hamstring co-contractions in a long lever 90/90 position. And build those into supine yielding plyometric work. We then go into our main work loading the forefoot biased single leg hinges and add some sneaky core work to our bicep curls.
This week our accessory work sees us doing backward sliding lunges, and eccentric hamstring curl push ups.
We again finish a moment of downregulation.
Equipment:
- Wallspace
- Pilates ball or tolled up towel
- Resistance band + door anchor
- 1 Medium to heavy dumbbells
- 2 light dumbbells
- Plyo-box or low surface to step on
- Something to slide on: towel or slider disc
- A few books or yoga blocks
- Optional: supportive shoe
