Are you ready to lose those last ten pounds? This workout can help! Led by fitness expert Jessica Smith, this non stop, action packed 60 minute workout has it all - cardio, sculpting and abs - done at a cardio pace to burn maximum calories, melt away fat, and drop those pounds - fast! Get everything done in one workout: develop endurance, agility, balance and strength all while you tone, tighten and define your entire body. A mat and 5 lbs. dumbbells are recommended for this workout. The 10 Pounds DOWN Series was created to help you reach your weight loss goals - 10 pounds at a time! Whether it's your first or last 10 pounds, this workout can help you sculpt, slim and define your entire body. Intervals of near-anaerobic-speed cardio alternated with fast-paced toning exercises. Your heart rate never drops -- this program keeps you constantly moving with quick transitions and well-paired aero/tone sequences (e.g. a mountain climber aerobic segment that flows into a similar-position plank toning series is non-stop motion). The cardio exercises are truly challenging. You don't simply "follow the beat;" instead, you "move as fast as you can!" The standing and floor toning intervals are also well-designed. They often feature compound exercises with skillfully intensified versions of classic moves (e.g. an ab crunch with straight legs). Clear, precise cuing.
