Uh, Kelly and Monique, you can line a supine position with um, your bar just underneath or above your armpits with your knees, beans, hands at shoulder with the parts. And we're going to start with the one and only pelvic skull. So we're going to take a debrief to start with as we excelled, ro the abdominals, tilt the pelvis and articulate your spine up off the floor. Inhale at the top, using the breadth and on the Xcel.

Roiling the spine up. Inhale at the top and exhale to roll down. Enjoy that stretch over the lower back. Release the pelvis.

Inhale and exhale. Draw the abdominals rolling up, lifting up in hell, pose and excel, making sure that our doctors run parallel to each other, pressing the feet down into the floor, always striving for precision of the movement. One more inhale, and then we're gonna add in a little variation. Exhale, draw the abdominals. Articulate the spine, rolling up into that beautiful bridging position. You're going to lift your right Tega, bend your knee and bring your ankle over your site into the figure of four position. From here, we're going to do three pelvic calls rolling down. Exhale, roll down the center of the spine. Articulate down feeling that both sides of the body is nice and stable all the way to the neutral. Inhale and exhale, engage the ta.

Before the movement happens, we always stabilize. Bracing the right knee away from you. Inhale and exhale, articulate down. Good work you guys, and you feel like you pulling the bar part so the arms are active. And one more. Inhale and exhale.

Draw deep into the abdominals, pressing the pelvis up towards the ceiling. We're going to hold the gen two five pulses up. Exhale, five XL full [inaudible] to one. Hold it on the heights of the pulse. Lift the right knee, bend the knee, place it down without the pelvis shifting. Lift the left leg up and cross the ankle over the thigh. Exhale to roll down. Breathing out, breathing out and lengthen that lower back.

Inhale and draw deep into the abdominals. Make each brace count. Each spinal articulation is important in Hell and excel became full of the right side. Cal. Keep the adductors active. Thank you. Good work. One more breath. Inhale and drew all the abdominals. Exhale to roll up. Roll up royal, upholding a chair for the five pulses per racing off my handful. Five.

Articulate down, drawing deep drawing deeper, the adductors, staying active all the way to the neutral for the spine. Twist upon your exhale. Lift your right leg off the floor. They in the lift, they comes off the floor and make sure you stay active in your body. Here. Your shins are parallel to the floor. If I had to raise my hand down, you'll be able to hold me. So give me a little bit more extensive here. Yes, that's it. Good work. On the inhale, the legs go over to the right side.

Breathing in, keeping the opposite shoulder blade on the floor and on the XL. Use The obliques to resist your own body. Good resistance. Munn and inhale over to the left side, keeping the knees stacked on top of each other. So the pelvis moves as a unit XL to draw back and we inhale over this time. Extend both knees for me, Preston, legs away.

Pull this straight legs back to the center. Straight eggs and then brain the knees and we go over to the side. Inhale, Xcel reaching the legs up. I pull up those quadriceps, draw the legs back to the center and being the nice two more. And inhale and press away. Excel. Create your own resistance the whole time you are in tune with your body.

Keep moving. She's waiting for my cue. You're a good student and bend your knees one whole and inhale over and extend the legs. Draw deep into the abdominals. Pull the legs back to the center, bend your knees and replaced one leg at a time on the floor. From here we're going to go into the money roll-up. So I want you guys to slide your legs away. We're going to do the money.

Roy Labs with straight legs today. Taking a debrief on the XL, draw the chin to the chase and just bring that thoracic spine up off the floor. So this is your sit up. This is your starting position. Take a breath. Inhale on the XL, deepen the flection without the power shifting. So you want to press the bar up and we inhale, come back to this gaps and we excel. Drawer the abdominals and left up and inhaled back to the gaps.

And we excel. Don't be shy to leave me an email. Formal and excel drawing in, drawing and lower down and through more. Make sure the nick doesn't take strain here and lower down. Good work. You guys do more XL drawer, deep, deep, deep. And inhale and exhale. So my train the nic flection here for me, cal lower down.

We're going to do one more and exhausted. It's almost like you're resisting the ball using the abdominals for the resistance. Lower down to your scabs. Then lower your head all the way down. I want you to change your hand grip so that you're in the underhand grip. We're gonna move into the obliques this time. So both hands are underneath.

Make sure your hands are in line with your shoulders, not wide. Right in line with your shoulders. We're gonna bend your right knee up off the floor into your tabletop position. Bring your right hand behind your head. Inhale for me and on the XL.

Move your body into forward flection. So again, trying to chase chase two thighs. Again, this is your set up, so we're going to move from here into rotation, focusing on the oblique muscles. We inhaled for the prep, rotate to the right side and Xcel up, up, up. Stay on the diagonal. As you lower it to the scaps and we go Xcel Xcel. And inhale, making sure that the shoulder blade is not left up. So you've got shoulder stability, but the obliques are actually doing the work.

Three more. And Xcel reach, reach, reach and inhale done. Another common fault that we see here is that we been the arm and then it becomes a arm exercise. Make sure that elbow stays striped. Last one, cal and excel up, up, up, up. Come down to the center. Lower your hair down. Slide that leg away, reaching that leg out of the hip and swap the arms around being the lift me up to 90 degrees. Making sure again that we have precision of the sit up.

Your knee is in line with your hip and that shirt is parallel to the floor. Breathing in, draw the chin to the chase. Yes, cal. That's much better. Good, good, good. So now the Naples stay pain-free. Take a break for the preparation on the XL. Rotate over to the left side and increased the call and it doesn't matter how high you come up.

What does matter is that that pelvis stays nice and anchored XL five more on the exhale and lower down and formal Xcel and lower down. And if it burns and you know you're doing a dry three Mo and down x hell to move good work and down last one and exhale and lower down. Bring your body to center, place your foot down, slide your leg away and lower the head down. Great. From here you guys are going to let go of the ball. We're going to do a footwork series in a standing position.

So let's just do a rollout. So we have a nice transition of movement even if the arms are just in 90 degrees. Inhale, lift the arms, not the Chin and in XL roll up and we love transition of movements and flow. You guys can stand up, face the push through bar, make sure you standing arm length away even it feels, if it feels you're a little bit further than closer to the bar. And we're going to start with our classical squat, but with up velocities, principles. So on the inhale we're going to Bain, the knees almost pulling on the bar sitting down so that your spine is alone, aligned on the exhale. Use the hip extensors and then brace up and we go again in hell two flakes.

Bringing this site to 90 degrees. Xcel use the hamstrings and the glute Max and press up and we do formal so we activate before we move. What I love most about these pants is that you can actually see if the muscles are activating XLF count.

Making sure the pelvis as well as the hate of fitting on the roller, bringing your hands into the strips and a little bit different than our traditional 90 degrees. The arms will be at an angle only because of the resistance of the spring. We don't want to take too much tension into the neck on the in-breath you guys, we're going to keep the hay down on the XL.

Just extend your arms down to hip height so that upper arm is in line with your hip joint in hell. Resist this spring as the arms lift back up. We're going to do two more here and Xcel. Breathe out, reach, reach, reach. So you're on an unstable surface so your stabilizers have work. So much hotter inhaler. We do. One more prep and excel reading out.

If it's to Nicky from here, are we gonna put the feet in the straps? This is, um, a good time to assist your client and be that kind instructor. Hold a tear for me, mine, and then we'll put the other foot in.

And good, right? Making sure your straps are in the right position. Yes. Right? I want you to bring your hands over your head just to block yourself. I'm gonna move these out of the way.

Okay, great. Stability. So again, just take a moment. Find your center, bring the body and mind together. You're on an unstable surface. Your legs are in unstable position. So really bring the body and mind together to make sure you, this exercise is done in a safe manner. The ankles are Dorsey flakes, Dorsey flakes, Dorsey flakes for their extension.

Okay, let me see your scales move. Aha, you've got it. And circle around. So Kel, not too wide for the circles especially uh, with the springs, the smaller the circle, the more in teams the stability and strength on that hip joins. Okay, two more exhale. Keep it small. Good, but keep pressing into this, into the straps. And one more exhale out. Up and together we reverse. We go. Inhale XL, maintaining that XLR rotation in the hip.

One more after this, Eh, left up last one and XL, draw, draw. Drew left the legs up. Bend your knees. This time for me, we're going to take it with straps out of the feet, placing one leg at a time down on the beach for safety. And then you can just bring yourself off your roller.

As we just straight off the roller and straighten your front leg for that hamstring stretch. Good. Stretch your left leg for me as we go into the hamstring stretch, keeping their back extended. Inhale and exhale.

The pelvis is nice and square. That back is still active. So as much as what we targeting the hamstring, the upper back extensors are differently assisting to the movement. Take one breath for me, you guys. I know you dying to just let your spine fold forward and reach down and enjoy that stretch. Two more breaths. Inhale and exhale and one more. Inhale and exhale.

From here we're going to sit up the push through ball once spring, bottom loaded for spinal articulation, so I have to do this again and he goes, it's a safety thing. One, I know we don't teach on balance body back home, so you all forgiven. So always safety chain on first, whoops. So and then we add the spring. There we go. And so we just learn from each other. Okay you guys, we're going to go into a spinal articulation.

You're going to align a supine position, so just make sure the arms are super straight over their head so that we can distribute the weight evenly between the head and the shoulders. Seeing that we are working on such a vulnerable area around the c spine, we're going to take a count to three in hell, excel cal, one, two, three plus your toes on the bar, making sure the client has got the toes nice and secure on the body.
