Simone De La Rue Body By Simone Trampoline Cardio - Thoughts

Image
Trampoline Cardio clocks in at 59:07. Along with Simone, there are four other cast members. The workout starts with a floor warm-up. It is the same warm-up sequence that has been in all of her workouts. Workout Breakdown: Floor warm up Freestyle on the trampoline - to warm up the feet Dance Cardio 1 - 16 Candles Dance Cardio 2 - Hurl Upper Body using toning band wrist weights Dance Cardio 3 - Rave continue to use toning band Mega Mix - Join dances 1, 2, & 3 Lower Body Strength and Stability Planks Abs Sprints and Jumps Stretch The set is a warehouse, not the same as the other workouts. This warehouse is a bit dingy.  The casts are outfitted all in white I thought that was a pretty cool look. Great soundtrack. Many of the dance routines in the workout also appear in Simone's traditional dance workout as does some of the music selections. This is a high energy fast past workout and again you are basically following along. Although as state...

Tracy Anderson Trampoline Cardio - Thoughts

Image
Trampoline Cardio clocks in at 29:30.  This is  a follow along the best you can type of workout.  The workout starts as soon as you hit play.  Tracy is already into the workout. There is about a 3 minute introduction where the music is turn down so that you can hear Tracy's voice over narrative. After she is done talking about the trampoline workout, the music gets louder. The set is greyed out so that all you see is Tracy jumping on the trampoline. It is hard to tell where the wall and floor intersect. This is not a big deal, just details for those of you who like those type of details. There is NO cuing at all.  I did not try to keep up with Tracy. What I did is follow a move behind. So if she starts with criss cross jacks, when she moved on to high knees, that is when I would do the criss cross jack and so on. That of course left me with one move I didn't get too because the workout just abruptly ends, but now that I  know the ending. I can plan f...

Image
Tracy Anderson's Total Body Mini-Trampoline workout is a 50 minute workout. The workout is broken down as follows: Full Workout (51:30) Muscular Structure (26:30) Trampoline Front (12:04) Trampoline Back (12:54) The muscular structure segment includes standing and kneeling arms, abs, and thigh & buns work.  Tracy uses a pair of light dumbbells and a mat in the toning segment. She also uses the trampoline (mostly as a prop) in this segment.  Expect lots of reps for the leg exercises. The trampoline segments feature lots of kicks, jacks, mini jumps, and knee raises.  Tracy adds various arm movement throughout. This whole workout is a follow along workout.  There is absolutely no cuing what so ever. The only time Tracy talks is during the intro. I did like set and the soundtrack is awesome. Great music to workout too. There is a bit of a warm up but there is not a cool down or stretch. What do I say. It is Tracy. I have come to expect minimum cuin...
