In this workout, we will use the yoga strap and block to help create resistance into the upper, mid, and low back regions to move into trunk extension. Practice backbends in standing, lunging, single leg balance, seated, prone, and supine bridge positions. We will target the rear shoulder, glutes, and spinal extensors throughout this workout. This challenging routine will help you to feel less tightness in the hips and lower back, as well as energized and renewed!
Day 2 is designed to integrate many of the isometrics from Day One into integrated joint positions. As we move to achieve the posture, notice any areas that you may feel are limited or tight. It is natural for weaker muscles to rely on stronger muscles to do their job, but as our muscles become more healthy, mobility improves.
