Deep Abs - Week 2
Restorative Strength
•
43m
In week 2, we continue working to relax the ribcage and sense our abs, as the positions become more and more challenging. I introduce one of my favorite exercises - the inchworm. And we repeat a lot of set-ups from last week to make sure we are growing more comfortable and - more important - quicker to sense abs instead of other areas of our body taking over.
Equipment:
You'll need the following items of equipment for the class:
- A mat.
- Some wall space.
- A Pilates ball (or similar).
- A hardback book.
- An exercise band (and anchor point).
- A pair of light weight dumbbells.
- Supportive shoes (optional but advised).
- A straw or kazoo.
- A Gym Ball / Swiss Ball (alternatively a big pillow and a foam roller works).
- An elevated surface for a plank position that is challenging but comfortable.
