It's the end of my first week incorporating Let's Get Moving 2 - Cardio Toning with Weights into my workout schedule.
I have to admit that it was a challenging, but doable, week. Previously I was getting about 2 workouts a week in at the local YMCA. That was mostly cardio and leg press machines. If I added upper body on those same days, I just felt drained afterwards. Having 4 kids and feeling drained is not a good mix.
The plan was to alternate YMCA workout days with toning exercises . That rarely panned out.
That's one of the reasons why this video has been such a blessing. Founder Debra Mazda is very motivating. Thank goodness she believes "Fitness Comes in Many Sizes" Because of this, I enjoy working out to her videos as I do not feel the added stress of trying to look like a barbie doll or being able to do ridiculously difficult routines in order to 'get my sweat on'. I can definitely see how this video would be a blessing to those seriously overweight or had 'tender' legs as it is all low impact.The workout in Let's Get Moving 2 is approximately 56 minutes. Happily, it's 56 minutes that leaves you feeling 'worked-out' without the 'I've been hit by a truck' feeling. After a warm up, Debra alternates arm exercises with light weights and plain low impact cardio.
Hurrah! I can function using this DVD on opposite days from my workout at the gym!
