JessicaSmithTV: Strong Stretch
Every time I think I have done all of Jessica Smith's YouTube yoga and stretch routines I run across another one. I recently stumbled across Strong Stretch, which was posted 4 years ago.

Barlates: HIIT Barre
HIIT Barre is another tough but excellent workout from Linda Wooldridge and it is free on YouTube.

Linda Wooldridge just released another Beginner Intervals workout and I couldn't wait to try this one!

When the workout begins, the intro/title screen says "Glute Bridge on the Ball" but it is actually Long Lever Upper & Lower, as labeled--so don't worry! You … Continue reading Barlates: Long Lever Upper & Lower

Barlates: Beginner Intervals Compound Moves
Compound Moves is the other Beginner Intervals workout Linda Wooldridge created and posted to YouTube. Yesterday I did and reviewed Cardio Sculpt.

Compound Moves is similar to Cardio Sculpt--the moves are different but it is a short (20 … Continue reading Barlates: Beginner Intervals Compound Moves
Barlates: Beginner Intervals Cardio Sculpt
I was very excited when Linda Wooldridge posted her Beginner Intervals workouts (she has posted two now). She posted this one on March 12 which was 3 days after my mastectomy--so it was a perfect workout for me. Not immediately but perfect for when I could start working out again. I have already started exercising … Continue reading Barlates: Beginner Intervals Cardio Sculpt
