Defining Shape - Review

Finally, we have new workouts and a new series from Tracie Long. The series is called Longevity and the first workout in the series is called Defining Shape.

Defining Shape is a 50 minute sculpting/weight and balance workout. I say balance because there were lots of balance moves used in this workout.

The sculpting moves are a cross between traditional exercises and functional fitness exercises.

Everything flowed really well and the exercise were completed right in tune with the music.

The workout itself moved fast. Before I knew it, Tracie was saying let's stretch. Before that, you had a floor section in which you work the lower body doing traditional leg floor work. Prior to going down to the floor, you had as series of standing toning sections that work the legs (i.e. squats, dead lifts and lunges) and upper body (i.e shoulder presses, bicep curls, rows etc). There were also push ups.

Tracie is phenomenal. She really has to be one of the top 5 video lead instructors out there. Precise, clear and instructive are just a few of the adjective I could through her way.

The set was nice. The feeling I got from the set was that it could have been Tracie's workout space she carved out in her home.

Loved love love the music.

4 out of 5 stars.
