Tuesday's Trunk and Core -- Upside-Down Pilates - Resistance Band Work



The challenge for this week was to try something different, so I thought I'd find some new types of workouts to post.

Don't worry, you don't have to stand on your head to do this workout!  Upside Down  is the name of a Pilates studio in Hawaii and also the name of a YouTube channel I recently found.

In this workout, you will use a resistance band.  You can use one like they show in the video, or one with handles, adjusting your grip to provide the right amount of resistance.  The focus in this 30 minute workout is the abdominal and back muscles.

If you are unfamiliar with Pilates, or don't have a resistance band, you can do the workout without it.
