Gliding Step & Strength Combos
Rob GlickYear Released: 2004
Categories: Gliding Disks, Total Body Workouts
The workout divides into several intervals alternate between step and strength. The first combo, you do step which emphasizes on squats and then you do the squats interval (you do squat at one end of the step and then jump to the other end to do squat again). 2nd combo emphasizes on lunges, you will do step with slow lunges and then you will do quick lunges (jump switch) during the strength interval. 3rd combo emphasizes on hips, so after you finish the step routine with lots of side or back leg lifts you will do the intervals with leg lifts (with jump to increase the intensity). After the 3rd combo, you will use the glide disc to work on your lower body - inner thighs (jumping jack using the glid disc - pretty tough IMO), outer thighs...kind of doing ballet moves with the disc. Finally, you will do core and abs incoporating the disc.
Overall, I enjoyed this workout. I
think it has the highest intensity
among other workouts from Rob
that I have tried (CIA, Brick by
Brick). The moves are pretty
simple not as dancy as other
ones but I don't feel that it's
boring.
Instructor Comments:

did a great job with cueing. I
really enjoyed working out with
him.
