Gin Miller’s Barbell Blast

October 24, 2010 By Mary 1 Comment

Gin Miller’s Barbell Blast is a fun and effective fat-blasting workout, performed with a plate-loaded barbell system*, designed to increase muscle strength and improve balance. Gin demonstrates each exercise with an emphasis on proper form and technique and provides expert instruction on how to adjust the exercises for your level of fitness.

Each segment features a count-down timer and rep goals are provided at the start of each exercise – along with a reminder of how many reps are remaining in the set.  Calorie counts are provided for those who like to estimate their energy expenditure, but for more personalized accuracy, an exercise monitor is recommended.
If weight loss is your goal, perform the full workout at least 2 times per week, alternating it with your favorite cardio and flexibility workouts.
If you’re pressed for time, you can opt to do shorter workouts by selecting PLAYLISTS.  Choose 1 or 2 of the workouts or mix them up to suit your needs.  This allows you to reduce your workout time per session, increase frequency and diversify your workouts for ultimate results.
