Welcome to day 7 of our Summer Strong Challenge! Today is a pilates x strength upper body workout using some light dumbbells (mine are 2kg). This workout combines strength training with pilates inspired moves, bringing balance, core strength and controlled moves into our training. Today is all about upper body and core strength. We have rows and fly moves to target the upper back, helping to build a lean, toned back, we have lateral raises and presses to sculpt the shoulders, we have bicep work to build toned arms, and we have side plank variations to strengthen the core. We focus on slow, controlled, low-impact exercises combined with dumbbell resistance to improve muscular endurance, stability and mobility while strengthening the upper body. Expect slow, intentional movements that challenge your muscles, activate your core and leave you feeling strong!
