31m
This class is tailored towards those who want to improve their middle split, which is a skill that many aspire towards.
Equipment Needed: Yoga Blocks.
Time Markers:
0:16 CARs (warm up)
7:30 Hip Abduction PAILs/RAILs (Middle Split Base)
19:25 Hip Lift Offs (Middle Split Base)
23:11 Hip Lift Offs + Hovers (Middle Split Base)
26:03 Finishing CARs
With the middle splits it's all about time under tension, consistency, and progressive overload. It's also about teaching the nervous system how to produce force at these end-ranges.
If the middle splits is a big goal for you it would be good to do this class 2x a week, with an even amount of days in-between for proper recovery. After doing this class consistently 2x a week for 4-8 weeks, you can start doing this class 3x a week if desired. Progressively building up the overall workload towards achieving this skill. Though 2x a week should net some very good gains after some consistent training.
I hope you enjoy the butter!
