I love creating workouts for my dancers at a local studio and my friends and I decided to workout to get into shape with the new year. My friends trusted me to come up with some great workouts that would help us build some muscle, lost some weight, and feel good about ourselves. I call our workouts "Workout Hacks with CAT," because I take exercises and adapt the for our more mature bodies and how I want to tone the muscles.
So I created workouts that include a warm-up, workout, stretch and cool down in 30 minutes. Low intensity and modifications provided as needed (no jumping or running.) I have not cut much of the video or done anything fancy to this recording, so you are getting me, my friends and this workout in all our imperfect glory. I teach conditioning at a local dance studio and have a background in sports medicine that I use to come up with some fun & effective routines. Watch my journey as my friends and I tone up and lose weight.
Watch my journey as my friends and I tone up and lose weight. We started working out once a week in January of 2020. When we went into quarantine, we started working out on zoom 2x a week. We have watched each other slim down, tone up, and increase flexibility over the year. Sometimes we are sore, and sometimes we are not, but we notice the muscles changing on our bodies and that is our true focus. Exercise shouldn't be something we dread or hate as we get older, but a way to connect with each other and improve our body image. We also didn't want anything that would hurt our backs, knees, etc. so my focus became creating low impact workouts. At some point I got the smart of idea of recording our workouts.
