Leah Sarago Ballet Body Total Body - Review



Ballet Body by Leah Sarago has the following DVD menu options:

Play Full Workout (75 minutes)
Warm up (5 minutes)
Upper Body Workout (20 Minutes) uses light dumbbells
Lower Body Workout (20 Minutes)  uses a barre
Core Workout (20 Minutes)
Cool Down/Stretch (10 Minutes)
Instructional Segment (12 Minutes)

There is also a 3 minute introduction to the workout.

Except for the Instructional Segment, Leah is the only cast member.
During the Instructional Segment, Leah has Daina, show different modifications for the core, upper, and lower body exercises that you will see Leah perform in the main part of the workout.

At 75 minutes, I did think the main workout long but you can choose to do just a couple of the individual workouts or even parts of those individual workouts. While the workout as a whole moves from exercise to exercise without stopping, the DVD does contain chapter points (segments) that allow you to move forward to a particular point on the DVD.
In the Upper Body Section, there are 5 segments.  The first one is plank/push up work, the second segment is side plank work, the third segment is more side plank and triceps work, the fourth and fifth segment contains standing dumbbell work.
There are 5 segments in the Lower Body Section.  In this workout, you do several series of single leg work, double leg work and even a bit of floor work.
The core section has 5 segments.  I felt this section put the most emphasis on the lower abs ,but there is some oblique and upper body work as well.  All the segments in the section are floor based.

I like that Leah did not use a voice over for this workout.   I also like that super size Ballet Body mat.  I would love to have this, but I only saw the small Ballet Body Mat on Leah's website.

I like this workout and I like that it is a Total Body workout. I just wish the overall workout length clocked in under an hour.

3 & 3/4 star
