WHY IS THE BLOCK UNDER OUR KNEE? The block serves a different purpose for each of the 3 combinations 🔥🔥

Be sure to place the block close to the ankle so that both hips are level. Too close to the knee will cause the moving side hip to be higher ❌

Maintain a neutral spine with core bracing. Avoid allowing ribs to flare or spine to round ❌

1. Leg extension + adduction sweep
2. Press-up + 1/2 ROM leg lift
3. Hamstring curl + 1/2 ROM leg lift

Find the full, guided series in the newest on demand class, The Good Barre [45] 10.02.2024. Find this class in this week’s suggested program, available Friday morning.

When we focus on feeling better, rather than external goals, we are more likely to end up with both. Here is what I have observed over the last several years of teaching in-person:

Achieving a physical result often takes longer than expected, a lot longer. When we are focused solely on aesthetic results, we tend to lose motivation or change exercise programs, believing that the program did not work. This creates inconsistency with workouts and difficulty staying present during classes.

I have noticed that those focused on the end result often seem rushed in class. I feel sad when I am unable to help this person enjoy the ride, but I understand that it takes time. This person is unlikely to modify or take a break in class.

When we exercise to feel better, we get what we came for in a matter of minutes. I see these clients really tuning in, listening to cues, asking questions and enjoying each sequence. I can see that they are proud of their work.

It is my professional opinion that those who enjoy the journey are more likely to remain consistent. These individuals are, therefore, more likely to achieve a physical result as a byproduct.

You can further support the head and neck with a yoga block or a towel. Follow along for form-focused workouts that build strength and calm the nervous system.
