21 Day Fix Flat Abs Fix & Barre Legs - Thoughts

Image
21 Day Fix targeted workouts DVD consist of two workouts, one for the abs and one for the legs. Both are 30 minutes workouts and feature a modifier. These workouts are part of the Ultimate Upgrade Package. Flat Abs Fix is the targeted AB workout.  This workout does not contain a warm up or cool down.  After a brief introduction, Autumn jumps right in.  You are working the abs from all angles - standing, prone, supine, lying side and seated. There are twelve exercises.  Autumn does two exercises and then she repeats them before moving on to the next two.  In several of the exercises, you start the exercise on one side working for 30 seconds before switching to the other side for the last 30 seconds.  The rest are between 16 and 27 seconds so the rest vary. The equipment used is a single dumbbell and a mat. Barre Legs is the second targeted workouts.  This workout uses the same warm up as many of the other 21 Day Fix workout.  This workout...

21 Day Fix Plyo Fix - Review

Image
Plyo Fix is a "bonus" workout that comes with the 21 Day Fix system. This workout clocks in at 31:20.  It follows a similar format as some of the other 21 Day Fix workouts.  In Plyo Fix, you do six rounds.  Each round consist of two exercises that you repeat twice before moving on.  You do each exercise for about a minute. You do get a rest between each exercise and the rest vary from 20 to 39 seconds.  As this is a "plyo" workout, all moves contain some type of hopping or jumping move. However, there is a modifier for each exercise. Not bad.  3 & 1/2 stars

Disc 2 of teh 21 Day Fix contain the following workouts: Cardio Fix Dirty 30 Yoga Fix 10 Minute Fix for Abs . Cardio Fix and Dirty 30 contain the same warm up moves as Total Body Cardio Fix, Upper Fix, and Lower Fix.  The moves are jog in place, jumping jacks, windmills, side stretches and toe touches. Cardio Fix and Dirty 30 has the same format as those workouts where you are performing the exercises in rounds that you repeat. Yoga Fix is similar to the Pilates Fix workout where you perform exercises as a series of moves.  10 Minute Fix For Abs is also performed in rounds.

There is a modifier for each workout. There is a music off options. One thing I forgot to mention is that each workout has an Equipment Needed page that tells you what equipment you need for th...

Total Body Cardio Fix , Upper Fix , and Lower Fix contain the same warm up moves and cool down moves.  Roughly the warm up and cool down runs around 3 minutes per workout.  Also all three of these workout use weights.  Pilates Fix is made up of a series of exercises as oppose to rounds.  Depend...
