Short Class 50: Hip ER
4 classes per week
•
38m
This will be a single joint focused class, featuring Hip External Rotation.
Equipment Needed: Yoga blocks (depending on your current mobility).
Rotation is king when it comes to the hips, so if you struggle with rotational mobility, specifically in ER, this class will be great for you. I wanted to create a single joint focused class so students can get more specific with their individual needs. If a student has great IR, but poor ER, I want them to have options to pick a ER only class and not have to take a class that features both IR and ER.
In this class we will work 3 rounds of PAILs/RAILs in our ER base, but always listen to your body and go at your own pace. If 3 rounds feels like too much, stick to just 2 rounds and slowly build up - or do the 3rd round at much lower intensities.
If Hip ER is a big limitation and priority for you, programming this class 1-2x a week (with 3-4 days rest in-between) would be ideal.
Hope those hips feeling buttery after this one!
