Once you have mastered your footwork, you will start to enhance your ability to rotate your torso (thoracic rotation). The key to this movement is staying elevated and keeping tension throughout your abdomen.

She is 'PULLING' from the left side to PRESS the right side, where the resistance is. The keys to the Thoracic Rotation are:
Ultimately, we are working to CONNECT great footwork to abdominal tension while keeping impeccable posture. Learning to utilize the obliques and lats while doing these 3 things, will leave you feeling extremely strong and coordinated!

To do this workout, alternate between exercises in each pair. Perform 10 reps of the first exercise then 10 reps of the second exercise, then 9 of the first and 9 of the second, continuing down the ladder till you get to 1 rep of each. Rest for 60 to 90 seconds before moving on to the second pair, and then the third pair.

Just to give you a little cheat sheet, we'll break them down for you here. AMRAP stands for As Many Reps As Possible. So every time you see AMRAP, just do as many repetition of that exercise as you can do. EMOM stands for Every Minute On the Minute. So start the circuit on a minute marker and then however much time is left in that minute after you've completed your reps is your rest. Repeat the circuit at the beginning of the next minute marker. Good luck with this acronym filled workout!
