Description: Week 1 Day 1 core

So I first looked at this and was like this is gonna be a breeze! Boy, was I wrong…..I couldn’t even make it through and entire set without taking mini breaks 🙈

Movements do not have to be unbroken, but accumulated in order for time and quality! 
To scale- put hands under hips.

-shoulders and feet lifted a few inches off floor
-rock back and forth, maintaining hollow body position 
-lower back remains on floor
-press belly button down into floor
-arms overhead for most advanced version, down by sides, or under hips (if unable to keep lower back from lifting off floor)

Hollow body rocks

-hollow body position
-legs make small, scissor type kicks
-legs straight
-arms overhead (most advanced), down by sides, or under hips if unable to keep proper hollow body form
-back and forth is 1 rep

Flutter kicks

Week 1 Day 1 core

The planks kill my shoulders cause they are weak 😫 any recommendations for helping with shoulder pain during planks? It’s not injury pain. It’s muscle weakness pain

L-sit is a struggle; I had to do it in short bursts. I did it on my parallettes due to the lack of a box so folding the legs is semi-hard😉

The plank is one of my favorites, a three-minute stand gets me warm but I can plank for more time.

Week 1 Day 2 core

Week 1 Day 3 core

A clean and neat 10-minute core blast!

Here is something to forward to the developers - during the 1:00 minute, hollow rock with the clock engaged upper right corner. When tapped, the clock pops up big on the screen with three buttons (-10s / stop / +10 a), and it is unfortunate that the stop button isn't a pause button, especially during time caped accumulating hold. When you tap ‘stop,’ the clock vanishes, and time is reset to 1:00. Which, on the other hand may be a good thing because the will be alot of holding…

I love that you have these core workouts! Thank you!

I am starting to learn and get a better understanding of how the app works! Great that it is possible to scale and add time if wanted/needed.

Week 1 Day 6 core

This session was gruesome! Perfect burner. I think that V-UPs in core training are equivalent to Thrusters when using a barbell—looking forward to do this next time to note my progression!

Week 1 Day 7 core

If I could get my hollow rock technique down, it would be super. I find it hard to know if I do it right, like an almost fully stretched-out core hold.
