Video 522 | ISO-Strong Hips (30 minutes) with Lauren Eirk
Integrated Isometrics
•
28-Feb-2024
In this Yoga-inspired strength training routine, we will be practicing and maintaining several multi-joint positions while under the influence of external resistance challenges.
The dumbbells will be used strategically to challenge many postural muscles as they work to counter the joint action. You also may feel that the dumbbell actually helps you with your balance! The Yoga Block will be used as an isometric resistance tool, providing force redirects to help make joints feel a greater sense of stability. Also, in some cases, the blocks will raise the floor so that we can reach it with our hands.
This class moves at a slow, comfortable pace with control and precision as the goal. Leaving feeling a greater sense of mobility and overall energy. Notice how the dumbbell hip sequences actually enhance our mobility and help with our balance.
