Let's chat aerial conditioning! While aerial itself is inherently conditioning, there are always specific areas that we can focus on to improve our skills. Whether it's grip endurance, pull-up strength, inversions, or dynamic skills, there's always something to work on in your aerial practice.
If you take class with me IRL, I typically start with some conditioning exercises at the beginning of class to help prepare students for the skills we have planned. Then, we finish class with a few minutes of focused conditioning to push our muscles to fatigue and build newfound strength and endurance.
Curious about some of these conditioning exercises? I'm sharing my three go-to exercises that target core strength, upper body strength, grip strength, hip flexor strength, compression and inversions too! Oh, and it takes only 5 minutes or less!
See the video below:
Hanging Scissors 5x alternating legs
Rock n' Roll 5x alternating legs
Long Arm Hang - 1 minute (goal!)
