MAKE YOUR GLUTES LIKE MAGNETS.
Nick Silverio kicks off Empowered Obliques, a [solidcore] class on Equinox+, with a lightning-fast plank-to-pike core warm-up. “I want you to focus on lifting your glutes like two magnets are pulling your body up towards the ceiling, bringing your quads to the backs of your arms,” says Silverio. Try to stay on your toes but take it to your knees if you feel too much shoulder pressure. Either way, you should feel your center core heating up.
