Review: Focus: Weightless
Tracie Long, 2011 ***** (4.5 of 5 stars)

Tracie leads this 30 minute cardio and body weight resistance workout. She works out alone in a cute brick gym on a pedestal. She does show modifications for many of the exercises. You wont need any equipment for this workout. 

Tracie does a good job of including higher intensity cardio moves followed by lower intensity moves so you can really give it your all throughout. She incorporates body weight resistance exercises with fun high & moderate intensity cardio making this a very unique, fun, and effective workout! 

Exercises include: burpees & marches, jump turns, walking knee ups to knee hops, upper cuts, jabs, speed bag, jab, hooks, jogging, pulsing squats, pulsing lunges, ham curls to plyo hams, tricep pushups, plyo jacks, jacks, and plyo knee pull lunges.

I really enjoyed this workout-fun and to the point. Great to use on light strength days or for cardio. I rate this an intermediate workout that can easily be adapted for most fitness levels.  Fun exercises keep this workout moving right along. Good for travel or no equipment days. As always Tracies cuing and form are spot on! This is a winner! I received this dvd to review.

This Weekend: Got some more Sally Hansen Salon Effects  nail stickers. Im loving these things. I never paint my nails because it only lasts a day or so. These stayed on a whole week and still looked pretty darn good! Cool.

Fight flagging energy with music. Working out to your favorite playlist can help you to go up to 20% longer and burn more calories, finds a study from West London's Brunel University. Music blocks fatigue, produces feelings of vigor, and helps you keep pace by synchronizing your movements, says study author Costas Karageorghis, PhD. Read more on Prevention.Today's LOL:
