The Bar Method blends intensified versions of traditional toning moves with unique pulse and isometric exercises. It s a surprisingly tough workout   you get elements of ballet, Pilates, Callanetics, stretching and traditional body-sculpting. Most moves isolate a single muscle group, challenging it in a variety of ways (e.g. a squat done on tip-toes increases intensity, isolates the quadriceps … and improves balance). Other results-boosting techniques include short pulses, varied-tempo reps and multi-plane exercises. Throughout, Burr Leonard s cuing is exceptionally clear and detailed (like Pilates, The Bar Method demands discipline, control and precise form). Requires 2 to 4 lb. dumbbells and a ballet barre (or just a sturdy chair).
