Guest guest Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Hi Everyone, I FINALLY did the Ellen Barrett workouts I taped from Fit TV probably a year ago! I did Pilates Sculpt and Slo Robics. Pilates Sculpt is a bit like her Crunch Burn & FIrm in that you do standing Pilates/dance inspired moves while holding light handweights. Slo-Robics is a bit different - it isn't quite as Pilates inspired as her other workouts - but it emphasizes the same principles of slow and controlled movements - I'd say it is Pilates-like but with an more athletic twist. Both workouts end with short " mat-work " segments - although not done with the the traditional Pilates-sequence - more Pilates inspired. As with all of Ellen's workouts that I have tried I found it to be a sneaky workout - seems easy, but you start to feel it a few hours later in your muscles. Depending on how that goes I may switch things up and do my steady state cardio workout tomorrow and my cardio/sculpt session on Friday. Doing Ellen's workouts today made me want to buy her new one from Collage. I don't know if I should go for it or wait to see if it turns up elsewhere for cheap. Of course, if I am going to buy something from Collage I may finally break down and get that foam roller kit from Voight, too! Thinking that would make an excellent series to use during my P90X recovery weeks. Take care everyone - life and work are crazy today!
