A few ways you can get a better understanding of your exercise:
👉🏽 Figure out which muscles are meant to be the dominant focus for your exercise - if you don’t know, ask your practitioner or give it a google.
👉🏻 FEEL those muscles engaging, moving slowly and closing your eyes (if safe to do so) helps.
👉🏿 Slower movements give us time to adjust and our bodies to recruit the appropriate muscles - it’s also a sure fire way to get that good muscle burn 🔥
👉 Check in with your breathing - if we avoid holding our breath we have better blood flow/O2 to our muscles and we are relaxed making our movement more efficient.
👉🏼 SEE what the muscles you are targeting look like, try google images. You can see where it is in the body and the muscle fiber directions which can help you visualise its activity during movement.
Get curious about your movement ✌🏽
