A mix of standing and floor work
Gilad's core workout is a mix of standing and floor work. At over 1 hour, it is a long and intermediate workout which reminds me a little bit of his earliest shows. The workout has four circuits or cycles which, in general, are variations of one another and is therefore, a little repetitive.
Gilad instructs and works out with three ladies and a gentleman. A healthy and extremely fit young lady from the beach also joins the group. A step is optional and you may need a mat.
Here is the breakdown. Most of the exercises and moves are listed.
Total time (1 hour, 41 seconds)
Warm up (4:26): This is made up of light aerobics, including twists, along with stretches.
Circuit 1 (9:27)
Squat and knee lift, with elbow
Twisting punch
Drop, extend, in
Plank and knee
Side bridge and reach
Crunch, with leg lift
Circuit 2 (11:37)
Squat and knee lift
Twisting punch, with knee...
Great workout!
This is a GREAT workout! If you want to get into great shape I recommend all of the Lord of the Abs DVD's!
It is great work out.
I am big fan of Gilad and this is one of my favouirite DVDs now. First time I couldnt even complete all excercises, it was tough. I am working out with DVDs for the past 5 years and this work out i consider as advanced level, though beginners can do it as well just by adjusting excercises as Gilad suggest through the programm. This work out programm doesnt require any equipment (you can use step but its not really necessary). Basically its just few excercises joined in 4 sessions each one increasing degree of difficulty, so you can even stop at the end of any session and move to cool down part if you cant do whole programm. As you are getting stronger you can do the whole thing with advanced level of excercises.
