As some of you may have read, i recently tried the at home work out PiYO from Beach Body.
The trainer Chalene Johnson put together a all new work out based on some of the elements from Pilates, and Yoga. I am a total YOGA junkie, however Pilates is something that i have never excelled at, so i was a bit hesitant. But due to an injury, i was needing a low impact work out, that would get me back into enough shape, and flexibility so i could function!
Anyways, PiYO is a 2 month program- in which you don’t need any required equipment because you are basically using your own body weight as weights ( which for me, thats enough weight to start off with lol ) … Although, i do recommend some type of yoga mat…A cheap one will work ( i personally have a higher end one cause my feet sweat…. a lot, sexy — i know ;) ).
So far, the ‘DRENCH’ work outs are my favourite…and i have lost 10 lbs so far. Unfortunately, i don’t feel that successful because that 10 lbs only got me back to my regular weight because since i injured my back… i happened to blow up, quite large.
Now that i have gotten through most of this work out, i have decided i will probably run through it one more time to strengthen up a bit more, and then maybe move on to something a little bit more challenging. With that said, PiYo is a GREAT work out for people who are just beginning to work out, or are crippled like me - and need something that more low impact !
Have you tried out PiYO? What’s your favourite section out of the work out ?
