AngieFitnessTV: Live #128 Torch that Turkey Rebounding Circuit

Torch that Turkey Rebounding Circuit is Angie‘s 128th live YouTube workout. It was also her Thanksgiving “torch that turkey” workout. I created this post shortly after Thanksgiving but did not actually do the workout until today. In the time between then and now, Angie has changed the title of this workout to Rebounding HIIT-Strength-Core-Balance Workout, and has also changed the associated picture. Personally, I like the name and the picture she used back in November, so I am sticking with it for this post. But just know, if you choose to do this workout and click on the link provided in this review, it will have a different title and picture.

This was a very fun rebounder workout. It is as intense as you make it. Angie, as always, shows easier modifications of everything and also lets you know that if you want it more intense, just press down hard into the mat to jump faster and wear a weighted vest. I used to wear weighted vests all the time when doing Angie’s rebounder workouts to increase intensity, but with the extra strong rebounder bungees I got for Christmas, it makes it much easier for me to bounce super fast. Plus, I do so many other super intense, HIIT level rebounder workouts now that it feels really good to take it down a notch with Angie’s workouts. Don’t misunderstand–this is not an easy workout (unless you are doing the modifications Angie gives you) but it’s also not super intense. I actually burned a lot of calories, but it was still a feel good workout. This workout has a little of everything. Cardio, strength, core, even some balance. The strength is more conditioning not true strength work, but it is total body and felt really good. Today was not a strength day for me so I used this as a cardio conditioning workout and it was perfect for that. Overall, another fun rebounder workout.

At the end of the workout, Angie shares that she burned 452 calories and “walked” 5606 steps. I burned 431 calories and “walked” 4509 steps. You get to meet Angie’s husband during the stretch. He was cooking Thanksgiving dinner while she filmed her live class.

Torch that Turkey Rebounding Circuit is 1:16:21 minutes, but this is a live workout. The first 7 minutes is Angie waiting for the home exercisers to log on and the final 4 minutes is Angie talking to the exercisers. So actual workout time is 65 minutes; 5 minute warm up, 35 minutes cardio, 19 minutes of conditioning and 5 minute stretch. Equipment: rebounder, fitness loop/booty band, pilates or playground ball, egg weights or light dumbbells (Angie uses 1, 2 and 5 pound dumbbells), resistance band and ankle weights (Angie’s ankle weights are 2.5 pounds). I used 1, 2 and 5 pound dumbbells, 2 pound ankle weights, my medium resistance booty band and my light resistance band. The warm up starts holding your one pound egg or hand weights. At the end of the warm up, you swap out your one pound weights for your 2 pound weights.
