Hi Sharon -

Walkiing with segments of Tracie's videos sounds like a great plan. Thanks for this info too! When you write it all down like that, you can really see the variety available.

Here are a few more ways to include add-ons from Tracie's first four Focus workouts (info from Collage Video's descriptions):

Kick Back
Section 1: light weights making jabs and punches more challenging (with less momentum).
Section 2: sculpts your lower body with near-aerobic-paced lunges, squats and kicks.
Section 3: varied floorwork exercises that target your upper body and core.


Lift Higher
Section 1: standing exercises (e.g. with dumbbells and zero momentum). Section 2: skating-style movements with your feet sliding on a towel (you’ll need paper plates for carpet).
Section 3: floorwork series includes bridges, hydrants and more sliding exercises.


Power Up
Section 1: powerful, high-impact jumps (up on the step, and then off). Section 2: mix of step aerobics with wide-ranging, off-step movements.
Section 3: body-sculpting exercises (e.g. on-step, “plyometric push-ups” are tough!).


Reach Further
Section 1: extended “warm-up” — gently flowing reaching and opening moves.
Section 2: yoga/Pilates floorwork plus a short ab toning series.
Section 3: standing yoga and balance postures

Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for reviving this thread. I just purchased/acquired a lot of Tracie's but was wondering how to tackle a rotation. Thank you for your wealth of knowledge, time, and effort putting all of this together! You rock

Great thread and very helpful, but I'm surprised at how some workouts are classified... Now I think I'm more confused!

Tracie seems similar to Michelle Dozois with the functional moves. I am combining the two using the Peakfit rotation and labelling Tracie's workouts as cardio, strength, cardio+strength, core, flexibility. It seems to be the most intuitive even if everything doesn't fit exactly.
