Welcome to the Heavy Ankle Weight Series. Step up the challenge of all your favourite mat and standing exercises with some heavier ankle weights. We will be going at a slower pace to avoid injury and to stay under tension for longer. There are 30 rounds of 50 seconds of work with 10 seconds rest. You will definitely feel the burn and in some cases your heart rate will get up there too. Get ready to feel the burn and see the changes!

In Heavy Ankle Weights Stading you will start with an outer thigh raise, front to back arc, inverted side raise, bent leg pulse and front to back knee. Then a straight leg glute raise, hamstring curl, inverted to parallel bent knee glute raise and an open hip knee front to back. Then an inner thigh raise, knee to raise, arc and bend extension before a 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!
