Tracie Long Stronger Longer Volume One - Thoughts
Stronger Longer Volume One is a 50 minute workout. Tracie uses dumbbells, a medicine ball and functional exercises to increase your core strength.
The DVD is chaptered as follows:
1. Warm-up
2. Single Arm Press and Squats
3. Cardio with Medicine Ball
4. Dead Lifts and Renegade Gows
5. Burpees and Medicine Ball Lunges
6. Squats, Triceps, and Push UPs
7. Turkish Get-Ups
8. Floor Press, Bridge, and Core
9. Thoractic Rotations
10. Medicine Ball Core
11. Stretch
As you move through each chapter, a caption displays telling you the exercise or group of exercises you are performing. Tracie explains and offers tips as she performs the moves - showing you a different option here and there.
There is more weight work than cardio and I didn't feel the cardio was very "cardio" at all. In one of the cardio segments, you were barely moving your feet, it was just mostly upper body and core.
If you are familiar with Tracie's other workouts, you will recognized the music used in this workout. While I like the music, I really didn't think it fit this workout at all. In Stronger Longer V1, the music was mostly used as background music.
I like the set. Nice huge space with several French Doors that looked out to a pool. I believe the French Doors and plants were fake though, but it was picturesque.
Although challenging in some spots, this was not my favorite Tracie Long workout.
