Day 2 is all about integration. Using many of the techniques and positions from Day 1, we will be moving through some positional isometrics with multiple joints. 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.
In this workout, we will use the Theraband to help create rotational stress. Many of the positions are Yoga-themed, especially in some of the standing exercises. As we transition to the floor, we will asymmetrical loading coming from our own bodyweight. Hip, back, and shoulder muscles will be challenged! Finish with an effective abdominal sequence to strengthen our transverse abdominis, obliques, and rectus abdominis.
