PiYo Workout By Chalene- Using Your Body Resistance


Chalene is one of my favorite trainers. I have tried TurboFire and ChaLeanExtreme on DVD; I was so excited to do a live workout at the gym! I did a live PiYo workout with about 40 others last year, and I fell in love with it. The unique workout is designed to improve flexibility, torch calories, AND build sleek muscles. It really is the whole package!

What is PiYo?

PiYo is a full-body workout that helps build strength, endurance, and flexibility through a blend of Yoga and Pilates. It’s perfect for someone just starting or someone super-fit. As we become more fit, the more flexibility training we need to continue to build muscle, and this workout is a calorie-torching way to safety stretch and get long, lean muscles.
There is no jumping or weights required for PiYo either so it’s a good low-impact option workout. It also is going to be super convenient for frequent travelers because it doesn’t require weights.

My PiYo experience

While I did a live workout, The PiYo Workout DVDs are exactly the same. PiYo has actually been in a lot of gyms for years, and now I’m so excited that it is on DVDs now too for non-gym goers! I wanted to tell you all about my experience with PiYo.

First, here is how she describes the workout though:
PiYo™, a strength workout, is all about working it to get the most for your money. It’s the perfect blend of many disciplines: sports training, core conditioning, dance, stretch, and athletic drills that will help kick up the calorie burn and build muscle! The dynamic blend of movement increases strength, core stability, and agility. This workout provides an incredible experience and helps you lose weight.

Her description is so accurate — PiYo combines so many fitness principles it’s crazy. 
The PiYo workouts by Chalene Johnson are perfect for people trying to get as much in  as they can in a short time or for someone that has a hard time focusing with yoga (me!). I loved how she combined light cardio with sculpting and stretching.
