30 Day Takeoff: Day 27
Duration: 00:42:53
Today you’ll be focusing on floor work and the always challenging sexy legs and abs routine. It’s ok if you are not yet able to make it through the entire routine. Also, the reverse elbow and handstand will most likely be a challenge too, so stay within your abilities and soon you’ll be going upside down with ease!
Pro tip: Did you know it’s important to vary your training so it’s comprised of both more challenging and less challenging days? If you always workout super hard, you’re more susceptible to overuse injuries, burn out, and high cortisol levels which you don’t want! More is not always better. On the flip side, if you only worked within your comfort level you wouldn’t see much growth! I’ve done the hard work for you and planned these programs to provide both challenge and rest.
Allow the videos to play in order and follow along. Feel free to pause anytime you need to.
Below is a list of direct links to each full length tutorial you worked on in today’s session. Remember you only need to click on these if you’d like more help or information.
That sexy legs and abs routine is HARD,I don’t know how you did it in heels!
ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
the legs warm up was too difficult – was exhausted well before the end . Please consider amending to a more beginnrer friendly version
Feel free to make a note for yourself to do a different warm up when you see The sexy legs and abs routine listed. I suggest the Ticktock legs routine instead https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/5a7b8bb9-4804-4e0c-be61-181aac110002
Thanks – my legs are spent but it’s all good
Good day , bad day . All better than no try days !
those hip bumps had me flabbergasted XD makes mental note to practice more
the top arch of my first foot that I lift up to the pole hurts from doing the reverse elbow and handstand. Am I using my top arch too much?
Hi there! Actually, you should not be using the top of the foot. Your positioning should just be like in a climb where the pole is more along the
front of ankle. If you watch the video closely, you’ll see, I’m not placing the pole on the top of my foot. Hopefully that helps resolve the pain. ????
That makes sense now that I looked at the video again. I’m pretty sure I was using my top arch for more confidence and security ????♀️ I’m so glad I asked you.
I’m happy you asked too! ????
My word!!! That “warm-up” got me spent! In the best way possible. whewww
Hehe 😉
Day 27 ✅💯
Omg the sexy legs an abs warm up was hard but alot of fun 😂 progress on hand stands actually surprised myself and did it from the floor yay 😁 x
I’m really enjoying this an learning so much 😄
Thank you Veena 💕
Right?! it’s a challenging warm up! I’m glad you’re having fun!!
Enjoyed sexy legs Abs routine, Question how get your feet over your head in pike position ? Is anything I can do to get in this position ?
I couldn’t do elbow and handstand,still nursing this crazy cold, it’s still lingering on.
The smooth hip thrusts reminds me of belly dance move.
Yay 90 % through, I must be dedicated to keep on going.
Keep on keepin on! To answer your question: It’s just a matter of building up enough strength in the arms and abdominals and increasing your hamstring and low back flexibility. It will come in time. Here’s a direct link to my Pike stretch https://www.studioveena.com/tutorial/shoulder-stand-pike-stretch-plow-1531/ Try using the related lessons below the main video to help you loosen up for this pose. If stretching doesn’t improve anything, then you know it’s a matter of building more strength.
Thank you for the help , I try the stretching first and see if that my problem getting into the pike pose. .
thankyou Veena.
Sounds good also remember these things can take time so it may be a little while before your body is ready to get into the full pose!
