My new favorite workout routine is Jillian Michaels’ “Yoga Meltdown” video. As you will learn, some of my favorite ways to exercise are using exercise videos — they’re easy to find, inexpensive, and extremely convenient — just grab one, pop it into your DVD player, clear a space, and you’ve got an instant at-home gym! (Equipment may or may not be required, based on the video you choose, but I love the ones where nothing is needed but perhaps an exercise mat or folded blanket.)I picked up Yoga Meltdown one day recently on a whim while out shopping — I was getting a little tired of my previous Pilates video, and had never tried Yoga before as I thought it would be both too difficult, and too slow/boring for me. Not the case with this workout!
This workout kicks my butt, challenges me, and makes me feel great! My puny upper body strength has already almost doubled in less than 2 months! I’m only on Level 1 right now, but looking forward to stepping up to Level 2 in a couple of months.
Whether you are a beginner, or an avid practitioner of yoga, this workout I think will have something for you. I love how you can see both the beginning and advanced versions of each exercise at the same time, and I also love Jillian’s no-fluff, no-frills style. This DVD doesn’t have a long intro at the beginning, which you have to skip or sit through every time – it is straight to the point, clear, and offers great instruction to both beginner and advanced students.
Check out this fun, challenging workout – I bet you’ll love it! (You can find it on Amazon for under $10.00.)
