…so I do it at home
Intense Full Body Strength Workout is an excellent strength workout from Heather Robertson. This is not one of her no repeat workouts. This workout was created to build strength so each exercise is repeated 4 times before moving on to the next exercise. Choose your weight appropriately and you will be working hard. Since I … Continue reading Intense Full Body Strength Workout
In addition to her many stretches and her lower body warm up, Heather Robertson also has another warm up that is great for any of her intense cardio and bodyweight workouts that do not contain a warm up. The first time I did this warm up (this morning), I used it before doing one of … Continue reading 5 Minute Warm Up // Before You Work Out
CRAZY Full Body HIIT Workout // No Repeats + No Equipment is another excellent no repeat bodyweight strength + cardio interval workout from Heather Robertson. During the intro, Heather states that this workout is made up of 40 different exercises. However, having done the workout, there are not 40 exercises. There are 39 exercises. And … Continue reading CRAZY Full Body HIIT Workout // No Repeats + No Equipment
Booty Burn // At Home Leg and Butt Workout is short but effective lower body add on/finisher from Heather Robertson to burn out your lower body. I used it to finish off Heather's Total Body HIIT Workout and it did a great job adding the finishing touch to my glutes. This workout is done interval … Continue reading Booty Burn // At Home Leg and Butt Workout
Total Body HIIT Workout // Strength + Cardio is another fun and effective cardio + strength workout from Heather Robertson. I have been doing a lot of Barlates lately and even though I do love Barlates workouts, I miss doing basic strength training along with straight forward cardio. That's what you are getting in this … Continue reading Total Body HIIT Workout // Strength + Cardio
Target 15: Squats & Raises is an excellent little mini workout from Linda @ Barlates. The title means you are doing 15 exercises to "target" a specific area. You are also doing 15 sixty second intervals with no rest/recovery periods, so the workout is 15 minutes. I really enjoyed this workout. There are no complicated … Continue reading Barlates: Target 15/Squats & Raises
Full Body Mini Band Workout is another fun little travel friendly workout from Heather Robertson. Just like her 5 Minute at Home Full Body Conditioning Workout, I had planned to use this on a recent mini-vacation. And didn't. But I still wanted to try it, so this morning I used as a warm up before … Continue reading Full Body Mini Band Workout
Torch & Tone: Slide is another lower body and core workout from Linda @ Barlates. It is primarily metabolic lower body work, but there is a lot of plank work which works your core hard. I found this a very tough workout--tougher than I expected it to be. Yesterday was Black Friday and my husband … Continue reading Barlates: Torch & Tone/Slide
Functional is another excellent workout in Linda @ Barlates Metabolic Training Series. All of the workouts in this series hit the lower body hard and this one is no exception. This workout conditions many other muscle groups, too--biceps, triceps, back, shoulders and core. I say "conditioned" because it is more high rep/low weight work, so … Continue reading Barlates: Metabolic Training/Functional
Torch & Tone: Cardio Sculpt is a kind of unusual workout. Maybe not for Linda @ Barlates, since she does put together some unusual workouts, but I found it rather unusual. It is effective tho. No doubt about that. I had muscle burn out multiple times. This is one of Linda's longer workouts, clocking in … Continue reading Barlates: Torch & Tone/Cardio Sculpt
