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!

Please Note: These workouts can also be bought individually. They are burned discs are high quality DVD-r.
I have tried gyms and outdoor Boot Camps, but I definitely prefer to exercise in the comfort of my own home. That way you can workout without having to worry about anyone watching you! It also means you have no excuse not to exercise, cause you don’t have to waste time driving anywhere! I have hundreds of workout videos in my collection and am constantly adding to them.
The great thing is that you never have to outgrow the workouts! As your fitness level increases you can either buy a more advanced workouts or simply add some dumbbells and/or ankle weights to your favorite videos to make them more intense! The fact is that the moves that really work rarely change! I even have some old Cindy Crawford videos from the 80s, which are just as effective as some of the latest workouts on the market.
Working out is my favourite hobby – and a pretty healthy one I think! I am sure once you buy your first workout video you will never look back and you will definitely want more and more!
I also love giving advice, so keep the questions coming! I look forward to hearing from you, and in the mean time, happy shopping!
