Body weight exercises can be some of the most effective for strengthening without bulking. Planks utilize so many muscles that they are one of the best ways to tighten and tone without any equipment but your own body weight necessary! This workout will make push-ups more accessible with innovative variations and will utilize all your supporting muscles as you learn to hold your body weight stable in front and side plank variations. Because you are combining upper and lower body at the same time you will feel your heart rate rising to burn some calories at the same time as chiselling lean muscle! If you persevere with this workout on a regular basis you will increase in strength throughout your arms and entire core, which will help with posture and increase mobility in every day activities. 

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!
