This class will be very challenging, and we flow through different movements quickly with less cues than normal. These movements will be tough, and you can choose to make them even more advanced by adding a tennis ball and ankle weights in certain drills like I show in the class - this will place an even greater amount of stress on lines of tissue. If you choose to add the ankle weight, start off on the lighter side and then over time you can progressively overload and add more weight. Progressive overload is always key.
I hope you enjoy the butter!
