SV April Challenge!

Day 23! â˜”ï¸ #SVAprilAbs – Leg Lifts! https://instagram.com/p/1yHMTTJARi/
Here is a lesson using the pole for stability https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4db34cf5-c2bc-4c39-9487-24560ac37250
Form is the focus of this exercise, NOT how high the leg can lift. Lifting high will come in time! Keep the abdominals active and thinking of pulling the tailbone under you throughout the exercise, do not arch the low back. Feel as though you’re lifting the leg from the core not the top of the thigh alone.
Perform 1-3 sets 8-15 reps BOTH legs! Lifting the arms over head increases the workload. Choose whichever variation allows for best form, keeping the knee bent if needed!!

This is my Day 21

I have tried the Shoulder Mount preparation from the floor, but I find myself scared and not ready for this move. Meanwhile I focus on getting my strength back. Anyway, this month challenge is way out of my comfort zone, I do my best…

Day 25! â˜”ï¸ #SVAprilAbs – Knee Hold
https://instagram.com/p/13KfDrJAV2/here’s the lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4d07835a-c7f4-46f1-87b1-630f0ac37250
You will find even more helpful tips in the lessonThese are PAINFUL at first! Start with the last variation working your way up. Not every move is right for everyone so NEVER feel you HAVE to learn this! If this is comfortable for you feel free to add a side crunch. The hamstring should be doing the majority of the work obliques come into play more when you let go 💜
Give this 1-8 tries then switch sides. If you can already rock this move perform 1-2 sets of 1-10 reps of side crunches BOTH sides.

Day 25 – Knee hold
Using the chair helped me a lot to at least get the feeling of the move. I like it a lot but it scares me…

I think these will be my last submissions for the April challenge, as the next moves are beyond what I can do at this stage.
I really enjoyed participating in this challenge and watching the progress of all of you. It forced me to try and learn something new, and mainly to stay in touch with my pole… Having been so many times “on and off”, I am not progressing as much as I want… Hopefully, I will break this bad habit …

Well….don’t forget I post modifications to work on for those who can’t do the full move!! 😉
