Welcome to the MetCon Series. These workouts are designed to challenge your strength and fitness with a combination of moderate weights and higher cardio factor. You will see a lot of combination exercises that use multiple muscle groups and the pace will be faster to increase the heart rate and burn fat, whilst sculpting your muscles. There are various interval and workout lengths so you can choose the right workout for your energy level and schedule.

In MetCon Compound you will use medium dumbbells to work both upper and lower body in combination. There are 20 intervals with 45 seconds of work and 15 seconds of rest. It is a drop set style workout with one exercise using the weights and the next exercise either being weightless or with just one weight. You will also do some pure cardio intervals and ab holds to mix things up a bit. This is a higher intensity workout that will increase your heart rate. Finish with a quick 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!
