The Valley
Resistance Bands • 45m
This 45 minute, full body sculpting workout is part of the LA Series, and the region we play with in this workout is the valley. Play with the use of ankle weights, a small ball, light dumbells and a looped resistance band to play with Jane Fonda-esque, Hollywood starlet inspired moves to achieve a red carpet-ready look. The movements target little muscles are well as bigger ones to elongate, sculpt and tighten the entire body.
This workout is intermediate level, so get ready to move at a fairly good pace, while majorly feeling that burn.
