Still feeling achy from last week’s workout, I decided to take it easy today and go with a light workout. I did a 40 minute workout from the Yogalates DVD focussing on abdominals, thighs and buttocks. The workout programs from the Yogalates DVD is supereasy – well, the first three workouts are. The fourth workout is recommended only for advanced students and I didn’t feel I qualified for that category so I haven’t tried it yet. Considering I find the first three workouts so easy, perhaps I might be up for it?
Personally, I think the Yogalates workout is too easy, and a little too slow – so slow that I nearly fell asleep while I was listening to Louise Solomon explain the different postures and movements I was supposed to follow. On the cover of the DVD, they claim you can achieve a trimmer body following the workouts on the DVD. Honestly, based on the three workouts I’ve tried, I find it hard to imagine that anyone can get trimmer doing such an easy workout.
It’s a nice workout to do if you’re feeling a bit tired (read: lazy), recovering from muscle-ache or just want to take it easy without having a complete break from exercise.
