Standing Arm Weight Series - Week 14
2nd Trimester
•
11m
Challenge your balance and strength in this standing arm weight series. Don't be fooled, we are still using the whole body in this series. This can be done as a stand alone series, especially if you are still not feeling great in the beginning of 2nd trimester or as an add on to my other classes. I'll be honest I did not start to finally feel better until week 16/17, so shorter workouts really appealed to me at this time.
Props needed: 1-3 lb. weight. Can be done with no weights at all to take it down a notch or soup cans if you don't have weights.

This class is done standing the entire time, so if you are someone that sits a lot (who doesn't?) this class is perfect...
