Andrea's Favorite: Arms and Abs
4 Week Reformer Reset
•
50m
This 50 minute workout features some of Andrea's all time favorite upper body sculpting moves from her signature Abs and Arms class at Speir Pilates! You don't need any props for this workout, just a sitting box.
This workout athletically targets the postural muscles and back, helping to lift, elevate and improve the posture, while tightening and sculpting the triceps, biceps, shoulder and more. Everything is done from an approach of elongation, so expect long, lean muscles from this approach. Athletically-focused abdominal work is interspersed throughout this workout, helping to carve out the midsection and strengthen the powerhouse of the body.
This workout is intermediate level, so get ready to move at a fairly good pace, while majorly feeling that burn.
