I Was Wrong About Blogilates

So, I've started adding several Blogilates segments to the end of my TA workouts, particularly those for the inner thighs because it never seems like TA works them. Anyway, I've been very surprised by how tough the workouts are and how similar they are to TA. And, if you have the strength to get through some of the "song challenges" multiple times, it rivals TA.

I definitely used to think that Blogilates was for extremely beginner and frou frou types (no offense if that's you, it's just not what I'm looking for). But, I have been proven wrong. Plus, she has an incredible number of videos for every body part on YouTube.

Am I the only one just discovering how tough these workouts are? I knew she was popular, just didn't think the style would be very effective. ETA: here are results from her plans - http://www.blogilates.com/blog/category/beforeandafter/. Yep, she's legit.

I just started her workout today. I discovered her 3 days ago just trying to find some stretching workout. I saw she had many mini workouts so I tried the inner thigh workout and one for butt where she was in London. It was so hard and a really great workout. I might try to come up with a rotation using her workout with Dreambody.

lol yeah, with Cassey dont let the sweetness fool you She'll hand you killer DOMS with a smile!

I am a proud low intensity leveler for life. I can only do blogilates in moderation, but I know I will get a workout of the highest caliber when I do her workouts. She knows what she is doing for sure. Enjoy!

I love how Cassey has so many free workouts on youtube. They are tougher than they look.

My 13 year old just discovered Blogilates last night. She said, "I just did this YouTube workout and it was so much harder than what we do in athletics!" (Probably not harder....just different...but still...)

I love Cassey - and I can't keep up with a lot of her videos. She's so upbeat and fun. Plus I have deep admiration for those few who put out quality stuff for no cost. I'm lucky to be able to afford most of the DVDs I want, but I know not everyone can.

In one of my favorites of hers, right in the middle of the workout, she discovers a spider on her mat and starts squishing the hell out of it with one of her weights. And she's so cute the whole time.

This just about sums up her workouts in general: they're cute but a killer!

I've been very impressed overall and like that I can add parts on to other workouts. This is especially good for those of us with workout ADD! The options are limitless!
