Ilyse Baker Your Sexy Everything Booty, Legs, & Thighs - Thoughts

Ilyse Baker Your Sexy Everything is a lower body inspired workout.   The workout is composed of mini routines from 5 to 8 minutes. Each routine has a particular focus. Ilyse incorporates total body moves in each mini workout that gives the routine a cardio effect.


There are two participants along with Ilyse.  One person is showing more basic beginner moves.  The other person is showing intermediate moves. Ilyse is the one doing the advance moves.

The workouts are short but challenging.
The Tabata workout comes with a picture in picture (PIP) that demos the move during the 10 second rest.
The Thighs workout runs through a series of squats and lunges. There are also some plank jacks in this workout.
The Calves workout consists of calve raises, hops and rock and roll calves done in a plank position.
Glutes is where you get down on all fours working hydrants and donkey kicks. There is also a series of single leg squats and balance work.
The Dancer's Floor Stretch is just that; a stretch that is done from the floor. So you are lying and sitting. Ilyse has a very intense delivery which IMO doesn't work well for a stretch workout.  She started out fine but as the workout went on, I felt her delivery was counter to the music and the theme of the stretch workout. 

The DVD menu has the following options:
Introduction
Warm Up
5 Minute Tabata
6 Minute Thighs
7 Minute Calves
8 Minute Glutes
Bonus 1:  Ballet Grooves
Bonus 2: Dancer's Floor Stretch

Play All

I like this workout. I did the workout in two separate session. The first session I combine the warm up, thighs, and calves in one workout.  In the second session, I combined tabata, glutes, and floor stretch.
