WARM-UP

WORKOUT

 

Plank Ups

Keep your arms straight the entire time and try not to let your hips wiggle side to side uncontrollably. When you lift your left hand off the ground, slightly lift your left hip but keep it square with the ground as you push through your right arm to elevate your left hand on the block.

 

Alternating Plie

You can hold on to something stable in front of you if you have a hard time balancing this movement.

 

Low Lunge to Half Splits

20 seconds on each side. If you can not comfortably touch the floor then make sure you are holding on to yoga blocks or something similar as you move through these.

 

Spiderman Jumps

If you can’t comfortably touch the ground then place something in front of you to touch instead. Place a yoga block where you see me planting my hands and touch that instead of the ground.

 

Alt. Cleopatra

The more your hands are under your shoulders then the more of a backbend this will be when you straighten your arms. If backbends are uncomfortable then move your hands away from your shoulders to lessen the arch in your back. I suggest starting with your hands at least one full hands distance away from your shoulders and adjusting from there.

 

Forearm Plank Zombie Walk with Kick

These are tough, good luck. :)

This is one of my favorite workouts, when I’m done I always feel more open in my hips. I hope you enjoy it too. If so and you want to try more of my workouts head over to my videos page for a few more options.

 

Alternating Forward Lunges

Do these with control. Do not let your knee just slam on the floor.
