15 Min Body Sculpting Mobility Stretch is one of Linda @ Barlates deceptively tough workouts. It is a combination of dynamic flexibility, mobility and bodyweight strength. Linda packs a lot into this short workout! During the intro Linda warns this will hit your hip flexors hard and she was not joking. By the end of … Continue reading Barlates: 15 MIN BODY SCULPTING MOBILITY STRETCH WORKOUT / FEEL GOOD ENERGIZING WORKOUT / No Equipment!
On Linda's Active YouTube channel she creates workouts tailored specifically for her paid subscribers and this is one of them. Someone named Kelly asked for this one. Or won a drawing to give the parameters for the workout. I'm not sure which; but either way, the finished product is available to us all for free! … Continue reading Barlates: KELLY’S WORKOUT // 20 MIN WALK & STRETCH // WALKING EXERCISES, DYNAMIC STRETCH, STATIC STRETCH!
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. Caroline hits the quads pretty hard in this workout but that is not all that gets worked. I felt it in my glutes and hamstrings, too. But mostly the quads. And as far as lower body muscle … Continue reading CGX: P.E. Program Day 35: ‘No denying… it’s all quads!’
As the title indicates, Kelly has a longer Box & Squat that came before this one. I started with #2 because I needed a 20 minute add on workout and this was perfect. Especially since it has no warm up. I did like it so I will probably try the longer original at some point. … Continue reading CoffeyFit Raw: Box & Squat #2
I usually stick with Michelle Briehler's rebounder workouts but this one intrigued me so I decided to give it a try. It was tougher than I expected! You wear ankle and wrist weights to increase the intensity and it worked! The intensity built as the workout progressed so that by the end I was wearing … Continue reading 30 MIN All Standing Cardio NO JUMPING with Wrist Weights & Ankle Weights
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. This upper body workout hits your shoulders, chest and triceps. I feel like the shoulders and triceps got the most work, but Caroline does fry the chest with a push up finisher. At the end Caroline gives … Continue reading CGX: P.E. Program Day 34: ‘Deficit push ups…. one of my favorites!’ (Upper Body)
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. Killer seems to be a theme this week, at least for me. This workout kicked my butt! In retrospect maybe I should have lightened the weight I used for the hip thrusts because those really kicked my … Continue reading CGX: P.E. Program Day 33: ‘Some iso & plyo sets!’ (Lower Body)
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. This is another killer upper body workout. In this workout Caroline fries your back and biceps. It was tough! I had back up weights ready for almost every exercise but I only used them for one--the neutral … Continue reading CGX: P.E. Program Day 32: ‘Weakening… but finished feeling strong!’ (Upper Body)
This is a workout from Caroline Girvan‘s CGX app. For more info on Caroline’s App, see the CGX App page. This was a killer lower body workout! Caroline really fries your muscles with plyo jumps, tempo variations and isometric holds. I had to drop to lighter weights in the second half of the workout. My legs are … Continue reading CGX: P.E. Program Day 31: ‘Bilateral then all unilateral!’ (Lower Body)
As the title indicates, Julia does this session in front of a lake. The scenery is beautiful and relaxing. 20 Min Slow Morning Mobility is one of Julia's easier mobility workouts, but it still works your entire body thoroughly. It's not as gentle as some of her easy/gentle workouts. I really liked the level of … Continue reading 20 Min. Slow Morning Mobility | Lake-Side | No Equipment, Follow Along | Start Your Day Right
