Welcome to the Low High Series. These workouts are low impact yet high intensity so you will feel the burn without jarring your joints. You will use various easy to find equipment to increase the challenge. If you don't have the equipment you can still do it without or improvise with what you have. These workouts require minimal space and can either be used stand alone or string a few together for a bigger challenge!

In Low High Mostly Lower you will start with a wide plie to curtsy lunge side to side combination. Then a side lunge to wide plie step forward and back. Then a side lunge to curtsy to wide plie and narrow squat combination. Next a plank variation with straight knee pulls, oblique knee pulls and cross body knee pulls, then toe taps centre and back.

Next a cross over to side kick combo in all 4s and then the same combo hovering. Then an inner thighs and abs combination with leg sweeps and crunches. Finally a lengthening stretch to finish.

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!
