Yoga Booty?

[dss62467]

I work with this woman who does Yoga Booty and loves it. She's so funny when she talks about it. She hasn't been a regular exerciser and is just trying to get into it. I think now that she's hitting 30, she realizes that you can't just get by without it.

Has anyone tried it? I'm wondering if it's worth anything?

I know a lot of people like it, but when I tried it I HATED it. I hardly got my heart rate up and for some reason the ladies sounded ridiculous to me. It all seemed put on or something. There was a lot of talking and bleh, I just couldn't stand it at all.

I previewed about 4 Yoga Booty's from Netflix, and did one of them. I HATED it too! It is not a workout at all. I even thought I'd give it the benefit of the doubt and considered using it for rest days, but the woman are so annoying, as is the music, and the moves are just plain weird. I got nothing out of it whatsoever, and was so glad I was able to test it out through netflix! I would not recommend it all, unless someone is brand new to exercise, or unless someone is looking for something to do on rest days and does not have a problem with the women or the music.

I like the Live Series which I mostly do on my recovery days. I have to put a lot into it to get my HR up and usually add more intensity than they do. HOwever, I think they are fun "feel good" workouts. They are very short, so I usually repeat the cardio segment a few times to make it a longer workout. That is fine with me, as it gives me time to learn the moves. I love Jillian and Teigh who lead it. I guess we're all different.

I tend to do a large variety of DVDs. I don't think the sculpting DVDs are that good though. My favorite is Hip Hop Abs and Cardio Burlesque. think it feels good to move your hips and torso the way they have you move them.....as it's different than the traditional movement you get with Cathe and it loosens up areas in your body that are tight. I did take dance when I was younger....so I can appreciate moving my torso the way they do.

Thanks for the info! I wonder what the women I work with would think if I loaned them a Cathe? Probably would blow their mind if they think Yoga Booty is a workout!
