30 Day Invert: Day 23
Duration: 00:41:50
Today is your sixth invert class and you’ll be working on strengthening the upper body and practicing your inverts! Be sure to read the full description and don’t forget you can take notes right here on the website! These are private and you’ll find a list of your notes on your profile.
Mantra: I am powerful
Tips: I want to repeat again how to safely exit: slide down if you’re new to inverts, or if you’re more experienced and have the skills and strength, you can use the Inverted Crucifix to come into Reverse Handstand or Thigh Slide Down. You could also use a push grip once you’re strong enough. Never flop down! Not only does flopping down lack control and present as novice, it places too much strain on your back and feet. It also creates a neurological pattern of bailing or falling out of tricks instead of moving with control and purpose.
Question: How are you feeling about the last day tomorrow? Excited, worried, bored?
Homework: In your journal today, write down how you’re feeling, then check these feelings to see if they’re truth (facts) or “stories” that stem from fears. If you realize it is a story, see if you can identify where this idea came from. If not, that’s okay; don’t dwell, just acknowledge the thought and let it go.
If you need to pause the video at any time to practice more or have a look at a related tutorial to learn more tips for an exercise or trick, go for it.
Here’s a list of direct links for some of the more challenging tricks, exercises and stretches used.
My last workout was August 2nd, I jumped in right from where I left off so today was hard. Still struggling big time, but, I did have less swing that before. I’m still sliding down, unable to get into crucifix. But I know it’s my fault, I need consistency
Don’t be hard on yourself! Enjoy this journey and just be happy you don’t have to come up with a plan! I did it for ya! 😀
Omg, so true! I’d be so lost without your plans!!
I’ve been trying to get an invert for almost 3 yrs. I’m not giving up.
Keep in mind this program can be done as many times as you like 😊
