Sports reviews of Yogini Workout
Customer Review: Challenging Yoga Fitness Workout
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Just like Ellen Barrett's other two Buff Girl releases, this is a barefoot mat workout that lasts approximately forty-five minutes and will give you a thorough workout for your time spent. The video is shot inside The Studio, Ellen's workout space, which means the background is fairly boring. The moves are demonstrated by Ellen and two assistants, one of whom demonstrates modifications of the moves.
I particularly like Ellen Barrett as an instructor, and own almost all of her videos. Her cueing is excellent and easy to follow, she has a pleasant and calm voice, and she gives you encouragement and motivation to keep going when the going gets tough. She also has the type of lean, dancer-like (very feminine) body that I am working toward rather than a chiseled or muscular body like many other fitness instructors.
As you can probably tell from the title, this particular workout is more yoga oriented than her other Buff Girl Fitness videos (which involve more pilates), and includes poses that should be familiar to anyone with even the most basic yoga background: downward facing dog, Warrior I and II, etc. Some knowledge of basic yoga positions would be helpful when trying this video, but is not required in order to follow the exercises and get a good workout. The poses here are relatively simple to follow, and even people who are inflexible and/or out of shape (like me) should be able to follow along. One caveat: There were more inverted poses in this workout than what I am generally used to doing, which left me a little light-headed afterwards.
The workout itself is not simply a yoga workout either, but incorporates stretching, toning, pilates posture and an emphasis on flexibility. The exercises, including the yoga poses, include unique twists by the instructor to make them more effective and interesting. The first thirty minutes of exercise are standing, and the last fifteen are spent on the floor. In particular, this workout is geared toward toning and strengthening the female trouble areas of the abs, thighs, and hips.
In short, I can't say enough good things about Ellen Barrett. As an advanced beginner/intermediate exerciser, I recommend this workout highly to any level of exerciser, and believe you will find it to be both challenging and invigorating, no matter what your fitness level. I have been using this video in conjunction with her other two Buff Girl Fitness videos Fat Burning Fusion and Slim Sculpt on a rotating schedule for a well-balanced training series.
Description of Yogini Workout
If you want to blast fat, firm up & de-stress, this all-in-one workout is perfect for you! Don't worry - Yogini Workout is not a yoga class. It's a workout that utilizes just a pinch of power yoga, along with core-Pilates & bootcamp style energizers, for the ultimate belly buns and thighs blitz. No equipment necessary, no shoes required. This signature Studio workout is challenging yet relaxing. Can exercise & tranquility co-exist? Yes! And you won't believe how good you feel when they collide! We begin with breathing invigoration, flow into a 30-minute zenful standing series, then spend 15 minutes on the mat, targeting our 'trouble' spots - the belly, buns & thighs. The workout is 45 minutes total, moderate tempo...and suitable for all fitness levels. Ellen Barrett says: "I've been obsessed with creating the perfect workout since I started teaching fitness as a college freshman. I've never lost sight of the real reasons for working out -- to look better (body), to feel better (mind) & to be better (spirit). This is why I created The Studio. I wanted a modern and elegant setting to celebrate mind/body fusion fitness. As a book author, best-selling DVD star, Lifetime TV's fit-pro and successful studio owner, I consider my mission to be groundbreaking - I'm pioneering the new age of fitness. The Studio is my laboratory. With this DVD, I'm inviting you to come get fit with me in my workout utopia." Barefoot, no equipment necessary, 45 minutes duration.Sports and Outdoors
