No planning needed-a full 1 hour class
This is a
Body Sculpting pattern from
www.turnstep.com.
(pattern 9587)
This is a really tough class because you are working several
muscle groups at one time. I haven't really stated an amount
because each class is different so just do however many they
can handle:
- Wall sits/ bicep curls
- Rest legs/ biceps only
- Wall sits/ hammer curls
- Rest legs/ hammers only
Repeat
- Plies/ overhead press
- Plies/ isometric arms
- Isometric legs/ press only
- Plies/ overhead press
- Plies/ overhead triceps
- Plies/ isometric arms
- Isometric legs/ triceps
- Plies/ overhead triceps
- (Supine on bench, legs open wide, I like to use the tubes
for this also, put handles over feet and lie on middle of
tube. Make sure everyone has the handles on their shoes
reaaly well, tell them to make sure it fits into the notch
at the arch of their shoe)
- Inner thighs/ chest press
- Inner thigh/ iso arms
- Iso legs/ chest press
- Inner thigh/ chest press
- (Diamond thighs: start supine and feet toward ceiling, now
bring knees out and feet toward groin it will look like a
diamond, feet are constantly touching each other, just
bend knees and pull in, then press straight up toward
ceiling)
- Diamond thighs/ chest fly
- Thighs/ iso arms
- Iso thighs/ chest fly
- Thighs/ fly
- 1 Leg calf raises/opposite arm lateral raise
- 12 Raises toe forward, 12 toe pointed inward, 12 toe
pointed outward
- Keep lateral raise for all 36 lifts
Repeat other leg and arm
- Lunge back off bench alternating legs/ frontal raises
(both arms)
- (standing on tube and holding handles)
- Side steps/ upright rows (you can step out and row at
same time, or to make it easier, step out lower arms, step
in row)
- Side steps only
- Rows only
- Side step/ upright row
- Side step/ bicep curls
- Side step only
- Bicep curls only
- Side step/ curls
(Skate: rubberband around ankle, step out wide and do
hamstring curls, V press back: arms up like you are going to
do an overhead press, now drop elbows down and back, from this
point just squeeze shoulder blades together by pressing elbows
towards one another) Skate/V Press Back
- Lawnmower pulls
- Switch arms
- (put tubing under step, and hold both handle in 1 hand.
With opposite foot on bench just lift arm up and back like
you are starting a lawnmower, then lower and bring across
body)
Abs:
Lie on bench with shoulders, neck and head, hanging off
the end of the bench, do not let your head, neck or shoulders
"fall back" you must keep your abs and back contracted to keep
you from dropping your head below the bench. Crunches feet
toward ceiling:
- 16, hold, pulse 8, hold, pulse 8
- 8, hold, pulse 8, hold, pulse 8
- 4, hold, pulse 8, hold, pulse 8
- 16- 2 up 1 down, pulse 8, hold, pulse 8
- 8- 2 up 1 down, pulse 8, hold, pulse 8
- 4- 2 up 1 down, pulse 8, hold, pulse 8
Sit on very end of bench, lean back slightly rest hands on
bench, keep legs at a 90 degree angle tap feet to floor, pull
knees in, tap out, pull in, now pull knees in and straight leg
tap heels on floor, pull knees in straighten and tap. Bicycle
legs alternate between slow and fast
I hope this was easy to understand. If not, please feel free
to email me and I will do my best to explain it better. I hope
this will give you a day off from planning classes! Anyone who
would like to do the same for me I would love to have an entire
class planned for me too! This is a fun class to do but watch
form really close! They tend to get poor form sometimes when
they are working more than 1 thing! Plus, that is an excuse to
walk around and give your muscles a well deserved break too!
I love this site! Thank you all for your ideas!
