Wintering is not about doing nothing, but doing less with more care, with more intention! A set (or 1) heavier weights (I’ve got 15 lbs) and a set of lighter hand or wrist weights (3-5 lbs recommended), AND use your imagination if you don’t have all the props.
Using a set of light weights (1-2 lbs) and a heavier weight- I’m using a 15 pound dumbbell..use whatever you have at home! Move the upper body, find your serratus, your lats, your pecs. Let the muscles of the front and back body communicate.
