Thursday's Total Body/Cardio -- Cardio Barre Dancer's Body

I posted the introductory Cardio Barre video a couple of weeks ago.  This 38 minute workout is a bit more advanced.  If you find it too advanced, go back and do the introductory video again.


Remember, pulsing and bouncing are not the same thing.  Pulsing is controlled.  Keep your core engaged throughout the workout.  Many of these exercises are Pilates based and are meant to give long, lean muscles.

From the YouTube description:

Cardio Barre: Dancer's Body Workout is a full body-toning, 38-minute high-energy strength and cardio exercise routine that combines dance-inspired barre work and light weights with continual fat burning motion to sculpt lean muscle, strengthen the core, and boost your weight loss potential. This workout guides you through several basic result-driven moves that will activate the core, strengthen the back and challenge the abdominals to promote beautiful posture and improve balance. 

You will need a barre or sturdy high back chair, a mat or carpeted area and set of light weights.  You can do the workout barefoot or while wearing athletic shoes.  A warm up and stretch are included, stretch more if you need to.
