Improving Imbalances

Hi, my name is Dana Santi. And today we are going to do a reformer and we're going to basically, um, work a little bit on, uh, imbalances and some fun stuff that we can do throughout the work to see if one side's perhaps a little better than the other side. So let's get started. I want you to, um, put your springs, they're either on three or four, whatever you used to do in your foot, work on, and then go ahead and nicely have a seat, okay? Okay. First position here, we're going to try to get all those toes on the bar. So even the Pinkie, the pinkies need a little love, okay? From here, pull the ABS up, okay?

But I want you to reach your low back down towards your heels a bit, okay? So we don't want any tucking to happen. Keep it nice and long. Push the bar away and bring it back in and to, and brewing it in. Push it away. Three and bring it in. Push those toes down four and push it away. And now try to push it as you come in. Push it away. Push it in.

There you go. So you work two ways. A couple more. One more. And now onto your arches. Okay, so we get right on the arch toes. Go over. But now push it away. Now as you come in, give your heels a little love. So you're going to push into the heels as much as you round over the toes, both sides of the foot working. Push it away, push it away.

That's it. Keep reaching. And now extend out. So picture the hip flexor is releasing for a second. As you're out there, come back in and reach and bring it back in and reach and bring it back in and reach and bring it back in one more. And now to the heels and push it away and push it away. That's it. Think of sitting right underneath the heels, underneath the foot bar. And now both of you take, don't change much, but focus on the outside of your foot.

So take the pinky toes and kind of pull them back a little bit more. So your foot is more even. Yes, and I don't know what number we're on, but one more and bring it back in. Drop back down to your toes again for your tendon. Stretch all the toes on. Push it away. Now push the heels down.

Push the heels down as you come back up and push and push. That's it. And keep reaching nice and long. ABS are lifted and lower and lift. Lower and lift. Lower and lip. Let's just do one more and then bring it back in. Okay, bars come down for your hundred.

Okay, now go ahead. Flip your head. Rest down just cause you're there. All right, reach the legs long now reach the arms up. Okay. Pull the shoulders away from the shoulder. Rest for a second. Don't lift your head yet and just pull them down in a way.

So you play this game that they're not going to touch those rests. Okay? Keep the legs down for a second. Reach the arms, lift the head and into your hundred and inhale and exhale. Keep pulling the abs away. Now don't change your foot position and try reaching through your heels. So push into my fingers and now start lifting your legs and inhale, push me more here. Come on more.

Yup, yes. And exhale, and inhale, and exhale. And inhale. I'm going to rotate you guys in just a little. There you go. Zip ups, right through those inner thighs. Lift them right into your abs. Keep reaching through your back body. Reach into these heels. That's it. Light legs, and a couple more breaths and one more.

And then lower the legs down. Reach him away from the center of your body. Lift the arms up. All right, put your handles into one hand. Sit Up. And you're going to take one spring away. So we're down to two springs. Okay. Short spine. So you're going to weave the leather through the handle and then don't pull on the straps. Bring your feet up towards this, the leather. So now you've got a lift note. And so come back this way.

So now lift the Tush this way here. Yeah, and then pull it back in. Okay, now I'm going to put this strap right in the middle of your arch. Okay, so it can't go too low. Can't go too high cause we're gonna push through both sides of our foot. Okay? So reach the arms long. Now push the straps away from you. Push him away. Okay. Now here's the deal. You gotta reach through these heels, okay?

And reach through the top of the strap. So it's like kind of like your foot bar. Okay? Reach through the heels and lift up and over. Bend the knees. Now keep your feet, roll the bottom away. Roll it, roll it, roll it.

And now pull the straps back in using both sides of the foot. Press it out. Now here's another little trick, okay? Take your feet. Don't point them so hard and let's make them even so that pinky toe lines up with the big toe. So we're going to change this position a little. Now reach through the heels. You're not, you can't grip anything now and you just got to use your insides.

There you go. Bend the knees and roll it away and bring it back home. And again, press it out. Now take a second look at your feet. Reach through the heels and lift up and bend the knees. Roll it away. Reach and bring it back home. All right, grab your handles. You're going to pull them through. We're going to go into coordination, keeping it on two springs, elbows in.

So now keep the elbows into the rib cage and because you want to put your head up, I'm going to make you do it with your head down. So pull the ABS in. Okay. It's going to be a little bit different. Tries up, stay down. And now just like you would just keep your head down. Press it out. Inhale, open, close the legs. Exhale the knees. Exhale the arms, and inhale. Press it out. Now stay there. Now fix this.

So it's a little bit more even reached through those heels. So long open, close. Bend the knees and bend the arms and again, and press it out. Now reach through here. More. Aim. Yeah, open. Close. You can see your hips. They just release and home again.

And press it out. Now reach through here. Reach to me more. More here. Yes. And then bend your knees and last one, press it out. Open. Close. Bend the knees and bend the arms. Yes, put straps into one hand. Sit Up. We'll go into your rowing. So we're going to drop a spring on the way and we're on one spring. Okay?

Okay. From here start and we're going to, I'm going to change the position like this. Yep. And Yep. Just forward. Okay, let's extend the arms. All right, so now from here you got somewhere to go. So we're going to roll back in towards the ABS. Now. Arms out to the sides. Stay there for a second. Now open the chest, push the arms back more.

Drop the head down towards the knees. Reach back. Now try to lift, open your chest more. Lift up through the triceps a bit. Open the arms and bring them all the way forward. Now from here, go right into your role again. So roll right back. Roll arms out. Now reach through those heels. Reach and back.

Open and lift. Open and home. And one more. Go right into your roll back. Arms out. Push and reach. Lift up. Open and home.

Now come up tall and let's start with the arms out here straight. Okay. Now you're going to go into like that bicep curl and I want the arm to be a little bit more than 90 degrees there. Okay, so now we're connected to our back. Push the forearm towards the space in front of you as you go back. That's it. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Push me. Push, push. And now lift up Lyft, Lyft, Lyft, and the back and up.

Open and home. Now arms start out long. Connect to the back. Little wider than 90 now go back and push those four arms forward. Now lift up, reach through the elbows, reach back, open chest, lift up, open and home. And one more time. Arms out long connectome. Velcro the forearms. Forward. Tip and lift up.

Reach through those heels. Reach them long. Reach them long and back to the tailbone. Lift open and home. And now turn yourself around. [inaudible] alright, so legs will start long.

Keep the elbows in Nice and tight. Okay. And now bring them in. And I kind of want the elbow to kind of almost like smear the side of your shirt a little bit. Okay. Smears, not probably the best word, but you get it. Come back a little bit. Alright, lift the abs and now inhale, reach him. That's it. Now exhale down. Touch all four fingers to the mat so you know your arms even lift up again.

Lift, lift, lift. Now lift long. Lift Long. Now stay there. Reach through your heels, reach them and open. Open, open, and again, right, nice and tight. And inhale up and exhale and lift it up. And now keep lifting. Press it open, grow taller, grow taller, reach through the back of the leg. One more time and inhale up. And exhale. Touch all four fingers and lift up again. Lengthen.

Lengthen. Now let me see. Reach through the heels. Present, open and home. All right, now put that hand down on there. Get all those fingers down and now push through your heels a bit. So change this position and I want you to drop your head and reach almost into your springs, down more into your springs. Way better stretch. Yeah. Now roll up and keep reaching and lifting and reaching and lifting. And now press it open, open, open.

And now give the fingers a little pressure as you go. Push them and roll it up. Lift and open. And one more time. So connect them to your back. Press them down. So give me this push down. Yes, reach and roll it up.

Reach, lift, lift, lift more. Lift the ABS, lift them, lift them, lift them, and press it open. Open, open. And now from here you're going to go right into shaving. Okay, a little sticky. I know. All right, let's push your finger, your, your finger and your thumb. Nice and tight together. Okay. Pull those abs up in a way, right? Give some space in your, your hips there. And now press it up. Lengthen and come back down and press it up. Lengthen and come back down. Now don't let your neck jet out.

Okay. It's trying to help you. I know, but keep it in one place and stretch it up and bring it back down. That's it. Keep lifting and press it up and come back down one more time. So you go up your abs, down your back, reach, hold it there. And now open the arms. Change the cross in the legs, arms out. And now here I'm going to make you stay more in a straight line.

So make your hand nice and even on this handle. Okay. So the inside has to be as even as the outside. Okay. And now inhale, touch all four fingers out there. Even the Pinky, even the pinkie. Yes. Now we know the arms in a pretty good shape. And then exhale.

Exhale, exhale. And inhale, reach it and exhale. And again, inhale, lift the ABS and exhale and I'll change your breath. Exhale, keep lifting up your abs, down your back and release. And again, and inhale. And one more time. And inhale. And then Hook your handles right up on the hooks. Step off. And we're going to put your boxes on for long box.

Okay. And we're going to flip your head rests up just because of the exercise. We'll end up going into after this. Alright, so lie down on your stomach. So your shoulders, um, line up with about the corners of the box and we're still on one spring. Now. I want you to reach your arms long on the leather here, so reach there. Now I'm going to take away this handle here because I think it changes the position of your wrist. It's a different grip.

I think it was meant to be on the leather. Now lift the ABS. Okay, squeeze the legs, but now I want you to reach those heels long. There you go. Reach him from here. Drop your shoulders down. Pull him back down into those back pockets. Now reach down to the floor and long to the back.
