MOTIV AT A GLANCE
THE 9 FOCUSES
3 x UPPER BODY
Arms + Shoulders + Back
3 x LOWER BODY
Glutes + Thighs + Lower Leg
3 x CORE
6 Pack + Obliques + Deep Core
The 9 Focuses Explained
Each day has a focus, one of nine different groups of muscles that are the primary target for all the classes that day.
It doesn’t mean it will be the only part of the body… that would be cruel. Approximately a third of the class will be targeting the focus group of muscles while the other two thirds will ensure you get a well rounded workout.
