Short Class 41: Shoulder Circuit
4 classes per week
•
27m
Here’s a quick Shoulder Circuit snack
Equipment Needed: Yoga blocks. Tennis balls and weights are optional.
This will be an up-tempo class where we work multiple different shoulder drills. We’ll start the warm up doing bilateral movements, but after that we’ll work each shoulder individually - we work one side, then allow that side to rest as we work on the other side.
These movements can be progressed by adding weight or props, but make sure you’ve developed the capacity first before doing that. Once you feel ready to start adding weight - start off on the lighter side and slowly build up over time.
As always, listen to your body and go at your own pace. If you’re feeling rushed and need to slow down, that’s okay. You can always pause the video and take your time. I just wanted to offer a short up-tempo class for those who are crunched for time and want to get some butter in.
I hope you enjoy this short shoulder circuit!
