CORE SLIDERS TAKE THESE THREE MOVES TO THE NEXT LEVEL
Did you hear? Our newest prop, Core Sliders, made its barre3 Online debut today in a brand-new 60-minute workout. If you haven’t experienced the game-changing effects of this magical new prop yet, you’re in for a muscle-burning treat.
As with anything new, it can help to get a little extra practice in with Core Sliders to give yourself a sense of how they work and what they feel like in your body. We asked Producer and Instructor Trainer Andrew Ash to walk us through a few of the key moves with the new props. Give them a try on your own, and then break out your new skills in today’s workout!
THE MOVE: Lunges
HOW TO DO IT: Set yourself up with a waist-high surface. Place the ball of your foot on a barre3 Core Slider, slide it back, and bend your front knee at the same time. Slowly push into your front foot, and slide your back foot all the way back up to standing. Then bend your front knee and slide all the way back to your lunge. Repeat this movement. To feel a ton of heat in your hips and glutes, keep the pressure light on your Core Slider.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT: The great thing about lunges with the barre3 Core Slider is that it helps keep your pelvis aligned. This alignment should help you feel more comfortable in your lower back while placing all the emphasis in your core and glutes.
THE MOVE: Plank with Mountain Climbers
HOW TO DO IT: Place a barre3 Core Slider under each foot, bring your hands to the floor, and slide back into a Plank position. Without allowing your pelvis or spine to move, slide one knee toward your chest, and slide it back slowly. Take an inhale, and then draw the opposite knee in as you exhale, and slowly slide back.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT: The sliders are an amazing tool to help keep your body in alignment, making sure that you feel tons of burn in your core, arms, and legs.
THE MOVE: Mid-Core
HOW TO DO IT: Sit on the floor, place two sliders under your heels, and place the barre3 Core Ball at the base of your shoulder blades. Roll down to your back, and interlace your fingers behind your head. Lightly press one heel into the core slider, and as you exhale slowly slide your leg forward. Inhale, slowly slide the same leg back in. Switch legs. The slower you go, the better! Do your best to keep your spine from moving to help keep your back protected.
WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT: This move is slow and simple, but it’s an incredible way to work your core. You’ll know you’re doing it correctly when you feel a deep sensation in your abdominals—especially your lower abs.
If you don’t have your Core Sliders yet, you can still order them from the B3 Shop. We’ll be featuring them in several workouts going forward, so you’ll have plenty of opportunity to use them. We can’t wait to hear what you think about this new prop!
