BASIC AERIAL SILKS CONDITIONING EXERCISES - with different levels of difficulty for each exercise

Hello everyone!

In today's video I'll be explaining you three basic conditioning exercises on the silks - for each one I'm explaining the standard version first, followed by an easier option as well as a more difficult variation (Also, feel free to lower/increase the amount of repetitions). It's best to do these exercises before you start the actual training session (and after the warm-up), because that way you still have enough energy to pay attention to good form and at the same time, these exercises help to warm up & prepare your muscles more for your training session :-) I know, everyone hates conditioning exercises, BUT they are so important to make sure you activate and strengthen the right muscles. During the lockdowns I didn't have much height (as you can see), which is why I focused on conditioning - and when I returned back to the studios, it was so easy for me to perform moves that I have been struggling before. So, DON'T SKIP the conditioning part!

Now, let's get strong together :-)

PS: Sorry for the delay in videos, but a lot has been going on (Easter; moving;...). Got some good news though - my aerial rig arrived finally (after some 6 months...), so once this rain here disappears, I'll be able to get some nice tutorials ready for you :-)
