Good Afternoon,
I did this workout yesterday for the first time and I just wanted to say that I loved this workout. I liked it because it was tough and soothing at the same time. It had some what of a cardio effect for me as well. I didn't get really sweaty but my heart rate did rise nicely. I did have some really mild doms in my chest area, my abs, hamstrings and believe it or not my biceps. I guess it was from that move that they do on their knees with the arms/wrist. When Leah said this move works your bi/tri's in my mind I was like no way does this butterfly type move is working my biceps...But I was wrong. LOL From previous post I read that you can use light hand weight if you wanted and of course I did.
Started out with 2lbs quickly went down to 1 lbs after about 5 minutes I had to drop those too!! The only thing that bothered me was my low back with all the chair pose squats,plié squats,and lunges. Hmmmm any advice there?
I really really enjoyed this workout. No equipment necessary and no shoes. In the intro Suzanne says to use the workouts 3-4x a week for optimal results along with some cardio. I feel like Release and Warrior have a little of yoga, Pilates, and barre. I also feel like it's very similar to EB Yogini. Can't wait to go home and do Warrior today.
