I Just finished a month of SBF, and now I'm back with Barre3. I couldn't resist the free 15 day offer! I have been pretty much alternating them the past few months. Today I did Studio Strength, and it was tough! Great workout! Here is my likes about both workouts:
Barre3: Full body workout Yoga & Pilates combined! Core ball which I love! Barre3 App I have this on my IPad, and I love it! Love the 10 minute on the go workouts! SBF: I love Suzanne's style of instruction! Even though I do love full body workouts, I also appreciate Suzanne's short target workouts. I often alternate between upper and lower body each day, and will add on a short cardio or stretch workout. Love the variety of workouts that she offers! I can't really think of anything that I don't like about either website. I just have a hard time deciding which one I want to subscribe to, lol! Sherry |

As Cheri said, all of the workouts work everything, but Mind Body Balance and Studio Fit are two that come to mind that have more intensive seat sections. interval Strength has a long combo and seat section that I also find slays my glutes.

Cheri and Sherry - Thank you both for the insights into both methods. I'm very curious about Barre3. It sounds like I'd like it very much!

Definitely Studio Fit. I did that recently and called it Death by the Ball. It adds a different dimension to glute work. I also find the second Standing Slim to hit the glutes quite well. I did Studio Power yesterday and my glutes are a bit toasty today due to the incline carousel and fold-over work.

Just a couple of other thoughts about back body work. In carousel horse and sumo, you are to be working deeply through the heels. Pressing them into the ground. In narrow athletic V, you are to press the heels together like you are squeezing a dollar bill between them. In bridge, the knees are to have the feeling of pressing back toward the seat. That all turns the glutes on in what are generally more quad intensive exercises.

I feel like I am "talking" a lot on the thread. I think the streaming is so much better than the DVDs. The 28 to Great set DVDs are all on the streaming site; the LYLB DVDs aren't. But there is so much variety and the workouts are just better. To decide, make use of the 15 day free trial and check it out for yourself.
