Welcome to the Overload Training Series, a series of 4 workouts that are designed to strengthen and define your entire body. These workouts are a fusion of Pilates and Ballet Barre as well as some traditional bodyweight toning exercises. You will work one muscle group to full fatigue before moving on to the next. It’s this overload technique which will give you results fast!

In Overload Training Chisel you will start with squat and lunge combinations with side leg raises, then a back and diagonal lunge set with some dynamic knee pulls. Move to the mat for a plank series to work your arms and abs, then a tough triceps dip series. Use your resistance loop and light weights to work your arms from all directions whilst engaging your lower body in plie squats and curtsy lunges. Next a tough barre set for front of thighs, followed by a thigh dancing series for the same muscle group. Then move to seat work with side leg raises and tucks, followed by a pretzel set that burns out the glutes and outer thighs real good. You will finish on the mat with a tough abs segment and a final stretch.

What is Barlates Body Blitz: Barlates is a fusion style workout that borrows from pilates, barre, ballet, yoga and more traditional cardio and toning. The idea was to create a workout, which flows seamlessly from one move into the next using the principles of isotension and high repetitions to build long, lean muscles. By using a lighter weight with high repetitions the exercises are designed to target all of those underused smaller muscle groups resulting in a defined, lengthened dancer's physique. This is a real girls workout in the sense that it is fun and feminine, but don't get me wrong it is still super intense with a big burn factor! The workouts are designed to be mixed and matched with an array of 20-30 minute upper body, lower body, abdominal and total body workouts that can be strung together for a longer session or done individually if you are short on time. These workouts will hit all those trouble spots and best of all you don't even need to wear shoes to do them! Get ready to sweat, puff and burn - hopefully you'll love every minute of it!
