Andrea's Favorite: Glutes and Abs
Reformer Workouts
•
52m
This 50 minute workout features some of Andrea's all time favorite glute and abdominal sculpting exercises from her signature "Glutes and Abs" class at Speir Pilates!
PROPS:
* Sitting Box
* Small Ball
* Looped Resistance Band
* Optional: Toning Balls/Dumbbells (2 lbs. recommended)
This workout targets the outer hips, or glute med, to help to lift the backside while helping to support the hips, lower back and spine. The hamstrings are also given a major focus, as they are the base that the glutes sit on, so it will aid in postural support as well as a glute lift. Throughout the booty work, effective and very targeted core work is fused throughout. Get ready to work every angle of your core.
This workout is intermediate/advanced level, so get ready to move at a fairly good pace, while majorly feeling that burn.
Props needed:
* Looped Resistance Band
* Small Ball
* Toning Balls (or 2 lb. dumbbells)
