Like many of the other reviews, this showcased my shoulder and arm weakness. Something to improve I suppose. Luckily I knew how to modify some poses like dropping the bottom knee in side plank and going into table top in reverse plank. I don't have the strength for this class so variations definitely would be helpful.
I didn't realize how weak my upper body is until I did this workout. I still enjoyed myself.
This was definitely a challenge for me but gives me something to work towards!
I found that, as there were no options for positions, I wasn't able to do all of the positions such as the 'side plank'. But as this is described as a 'challenging' beginners class so this comment is not a criticism, more an acknowledgement of my own difficulties as a beginner, never having attempted the plank and some of the one-legged downward facing dog poses before.
