So, Why the Yoga Blocks in Active Resistance Training?
Hi! I’m NYC Personal Trainer Terri Walsh, creator of the Active Resistance Training® (A.R.T) Method, and I’ve been teaching for 35 years.
A common question I get is why the use of 2 foam yoga blocks in the Active Resistance Training Method?
So, why the yoga blocks in Active Resistance Training®?
The yoga blocks in Active Resistance Training® force you to find, engage and maintain that feeling of Active Resistance. When you’re just on the floor, it’s really easy to forget about the Active Resistance because you’re so used to the floor. When we use the yoga blocks, the floor becomes unstable and you have to constantly think about finding and engaging the Active Resistance to create stability for your whole body, while we move.
