PiYo - it's pretty awesome

PiYo!!!! 

I am about a month into PiYo and I gotta say....I'm surprised! The first couple of weeks seem kind of easy...they're still great...but they seem easy if you are used to working out frequently. 

Well now I'm starting to see why!!! The first few weeks are all about getting down the moves, perfecting your form and getting used to the routine. I'm in week 4 and I am now seeing that not only are those routines effective...but thank God I did them!! I am so sore this week in all of the best ways and it seems like with every workout I'm seeing more and more definition and tone...and Im getting stronger. There is a method to the madness!!!

But enough about me...you probably want to know what PiYo is right???  

 



Here's what I know...
Have you been hearing about this new workout program that Chalene Johnson was just released?! I'm in the midst of doing PiYo and I am really enjoying it. I have always enjoyed extreme workouts - but I see the best results from the yoga and Pilates routines that go along with those workouts...(Hello X3 yoga and isometrics!) so I am really really excited about PiYo!!!!

Who will benefit from PiYo?

 EVERYONE!  It is a high intensity low impact workout that can be modified to meet everyone's needs.  It is meant to improve flexibility, torch calories and get you in the best shape of your life!
 
There is no jumping in this workout so it is great for someone who needs a low impact option.  It will overall give you a toned, sleek, and complete body transformation.  PiYo is inspired by Pilates and Yoga and was developed by Chalene Johnson who is also the creator of two of Beachbody's most popular programs Turbofire and Chalean Extreme.  There are no weights required for this workout. 

 

What PiYo Workouts are included with the program?

 

 

•  Align (46 mins): The Fundamentals (46 mins)
• Upper Body (35 mins): this focused workout will strengthen and stretch your entire body, while building on the movement patterns you have learned in Align.
• Define: Lower Body (25 mins) will shape and tone everything from your glutes, hamstrings, quads and calves gently, yet effectively to help you get sleek and lean legs.
• Sweat (35 mins) is a traditional PiYo Workout that is fast paced with body weight strength training and ab work!
• Core (30 mins) an ab-centric workout that targets every angle of the abdominals and back. I’ve read this will be a calorie-torcher too!
• Drench (45 mins) is a total body workout to get you sweaty, burning calories, and going to have your metabolism on fire!
• Strength Intervals (25 mins) designed to tone the whole body and burn tons of calories with no weights required!
• Sculpt (30 mins) no weights are required for this intense, full-body workout either!
• You’ll receive 9 workouts total including a Bonus DVD when you order through a coach...like me! ;)

 The PiYo kit also includes a really detailed and simple nutrition guide and calendar that tell you WHAT to do and WHEN to do it in terms of your fitness AND nutrition to get the very best results from this program.
