GET ALL 3 MAT BARRE SERIES WORKOUTS Welcome to the MAT BARRE SERIES, 3 workouts that will help you strengthen and define your entire body! These workouts will take you through all your favourite barre and pilates exercises, as well as plenty of new combinations that will leave your muscles guessing. Using simple pieces of equipment you will get results fast with these challenging, total body routines! THE WORKOUTS ARE: Mat Ball and Loop (48 mins): Sculpt your whole body with this barre pilates fusion mat workout. Using a pilates or playground ball and a resistance loop to increase the intensity of the exercises this workout uses focused isometric movements to initiate deep muscle contractions. Mat Ball and Band (46 mins): Start with some upper body and abs exercises, move on to some knee dancing and finish with tough lower body exercises to lengthen and define your thighs and seat. You will utilize all the smaller supporting muscle groups that traditional strength training usually misses. Mat Ball, Band and Loop (50 mins): This workout has some killer combinations including plank work to start off with, a teaser series that will bring tears to the eyes and some tough push ups off the ball. You will also see some traditional thigh and glute raises to really chisel the lower body. What is Barlates Body Blitz: Barlates is a fusion style workout that borrows from pilates, barre, ballet, yoga and more traditional cardio and toning. The idea was to create a workout, which flows seamlessly from one move into the next using the principles of isotension and high repetitions to build long, lean muscles. By using a lighter weight with high repetitions the exercises are designed to target all of those underused smaller muscle groups resulting in a defined, lengthened dancer's physique. This is a real girls workout in the sense that it is fun and feminine, but don't get me wrong it is still super intense with a big burn factor! The workouts are designed to be mixed and matched with an array of 20-30 minute upper body, lower body, abdominal and total body workouts that can be strung together for a longer session or done individually if you are short on time. These workouts will hit all those trouble spots and best of all you don't even need to wear shoes to do them! Get ready to sweat, puff and burn - hopefully you'll love every minute of it! |
