Not called Core Synergistics this time around but most moves still seem to work multiple muscle areas. Lots of work on the stability ball. A fair number of moves using the medicine ball. The DVD listed weights as needed, but we never actually used them. Weird; you think someone would’ve caught that. Or perhaps they were used by a modifier and I missed that part. I saw bands and towels used for modifying, but no weights.
Sure enough, my core is sore. But, my arms and legs also felt worked out. And there was sweat, lots of sweat and heavy breathing. The sign of a good workout, right?
My only complaint is that there were a lot of moves in sphinx (plank on elbows). This tends to make my elbows hurt and my left elbow (the one that’s been bothering me) was especially unhappy with the moves. I did find that I could modify at least one of the moves by being in plank. I believe plank is actually harder on the core than sphinx, so I may end up getting more than I bargain for with this modification, but at least my elbows won’t hurt. I was a little surprised that there was never a modifier in plank. But then, modifiers then to make the moves easier rather than harder.
