DVD Review: XTend Barre: Lean & Chiseled

XTend Barre debuted on DVD from Acacia on April 5th. It was developed by professional dancer, choreographer, and Pilates instructor Andrea Rogers. XTend Barre combines the grace and flexibility of dance with the strength and sculpting of Pilates and results in a strong and lean physique.

XTend Barre is a 55 minute long workout that is divided into three different parts. That way you can customize your routine based on your ability or how much time you have to exercise at one time.  The upper body section helps to create defined shoulders and arms and a beautiful back.  The barre segment uses flowing dance movements to lift and tighten glutes, hips and thighs.  The core program targets your abdominal muscles to help chisel your midsection.

XTend Barre: Lean & Chiseled is about 55 minutes in length.  You will need a chair and light hand weights to complete this routine.   This is definitely not a beginner workout routine.  The exercises themselves aren't that difficult but this one definitely requires grace and stamina. A history in dance would be a good idea too. You'll definitely feel the burn at the end of this workout.
