Welcome to the Lower Body Extreme Series. These intense workouts will focus on a specific lower body muscle group and fully fatigue it! They are designed to progressively overload the muscle by performing similar exercises with angle changes and in various positions. Get ready to feel the burn and see the changes!

THE SET INCLUDES:

Calves (22 min): you will use a small ball and yoga block for barre style calf exercises. There are single and double leg exercises using the ball for extra resistance and the block for larger range of motion. This is a flowing workout without timer and there are some balance challenge moves thrown in too.

Ankle Weight (43 min): you will use heavy ankle weights and an elevation to work your entire lower body, particularly glutes and inner thighs. This is a standing and mat, free flowing workout that uses the elevation for a greater range of motion.

Ball (39 min): you will use a small ball with standing and mat exercises to target the thighs and butt. This is a barre style, free flowing workout that will fully burn out each muscle group before changing sides. There's a ton of variety with wide plie position, standing barre glutes and thighs and a tough side laying segment before the elevated, glute bridge finisher.

Quads (23 min): you will use a resistance loop with standing, seated and mat exercises to target the front of the thighs. Each exercise is performed for 60 seconds with no rest in between. You will do all the exercises on one side before moving to the next. There are 2 warm up exercises, then 3 standing, 3 seated on a chair and 3 on the mat repeated on the other side.

Barre (25 min): use a small ball and resistance loop for standing barre leg raises, wide plie inner thighs and a hinged seat series. Adding the ball with the loop really increases the burn to a whole new level!

Mat (25 min): use a resistance band and small ball to chisel your hips, thighs and butt. You will start in a laying position for band leg extensions and raises. Then move to an L series with the ball for extra resistance. Finish with an elevated glute bridge using the band.

NOTE: You can also purchase these workouts individually.

About the instructor: Hi, I'm Linda - creator of Barlates Body Blitz. I have worked in the diet and fitness industry as an instructor and personal trainer for most of my career and have created close to 950 workout videos to bring my passion for exercise to you! My desire is to help you sculpt a strong, healthy body with a fusion of barre, Pilates, yoga as well as more traditional cardio + toning exercises. So what are you waiting for? Let's go work out together!

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! Read more here.
