TENDU TONING

New DVD from Ballerina & Fitness Pro Rachel Speck

 

According to the press release:

Professional Ballerina turned fitness professional, Rachel Speck, has combined her two loves and created “Tendu Toning” a revolutionary, fusion workout that brings together the toning of ballet with the strength of body building.  Rachel Speck, owner of Speck Fitness, created “Tendu Toning” as a way for her, and other dancers, to stay strong, and in tiptop ballet shape, and to help anyone achieve a ballet dancer’s body without spending years training. 

 

The “Tendu Toning” DVD (60 minutes, $25.00, www.speckfitness.com) is a total body workout that fuses traditional ballet techniques and positions and combines them with weights, resistance, and increased repetitions to maximize results in a short amount of time. Tendu, means to stretch or extend the leg, and in Speck’s program, when Tendu meets with toning a heart pumping, calorie burning workout is borne.

 

Arabesque grande-battements and second position plie’ glides are just some of the fun ballet fitness moves viewers will perform with “Tendu Toning.”  A simple ballet step called an attitude, when combined with weights and repetitions, is one form of how the “Tendu Toning” method works to gain long, lean muscles while releasing the ‘inner ballerina.’  Rachel guides viewers through a total body workout with help from Daniella, who does the advanced portion, while Ally demonstrates modifications for beginners.

 

The DVD is divided into sections, or various series, that include a warm-up of all muscles and body parts as Rachel stresses the importance of proper breathing while raising the heart rate. A barre or chair are required for the workout, along with a small ball and resistance band. Ankle weights and small hand weights are optional.

 

First up, after the warm up is the Squat series that works the legs, glutes and hips. Then, the Attitude series works the glutes, hamstrings and back. The 2^nd Position series requires a small glide disc. A paper plate or power towel can be substituted depending on surface. The 2^nd Position section incorporates squats, leg stretches and arms. The Band Kick Back series uses the resistance band to work the legs and back, while the Lunge series continues with the glide, and incorporates hand and ankle weights on the barre. The program continues with floor work for Arms and Abs, and ends with stretches and cool down.

 

More about Rachel:

Rachel does private training sessions, teaches group Tendu Toning classes, ballet classes for kids, as well as private ballet lessons. Rachel currently resides in Miami Beach, FL.

The Best Fitness Food For Women



Blasting away stubborn fat, building lean muscle, and toning up is nowhere near as easy as

those late night infomercials would have you believe it to be.

Those snake oil salesmen are going to try and peddle you the latest and greatest weight

loss/muscle building gizmo, gadget, or formula of ingestible glop all while promising the moon and the

stars as far as results go (for just 9 easy payments of $19.95, no less), understanding the whole time

that the only thing they are really selling is disappointment.

Thankfully though, you really can speed up your weight loss or muscle building results –

creating the beach ready body of your dreams – in no time at all, just by choosing the best fitness

foods for women.

Here are four of the top super foods you’ll want to start weaving into your daily diet ASAP!

1. Avocados get the fat burning fires going

Loaded with all kinds of healthy fats (and tasty, too), you’re going to really love everything that

avocados bring to the table.

Researchers at the University of Buffalo have long proven the health boosting properties of this

superfood. Filled with monounsatured fats that lower cholesterol, proteins that speed up muscle

repair, and all the building blocks you need to jack up your metabolism, this is a super fitness food

you need more of in a hurry!

2. Carrots aren’t just great for eyesight

When prepared the right way (gently roasted or pan glazed in a little bit of butter) carrots are

going to almost trick you into thinking you’re eating a dessert – when in reality you’re chowing down

on a real deal super food!

Packed with complex carbs that cannot easily convert into fat but instead produce a reasonable

and consistent supply of energy when you need it most, the potassium that carrots have in them will

also even out your blood pressure and slow down your muscle contractions.

3. Chicken breasts, thighs, and drumsticks

Probably the tastiest of all the cheap lean protein sources, you can prepare chicken in only about

a million and one different ways – and every cut is packed with the protein your body needs after a

workout to get you back to better than brand new quickly.

Tasty, versatile, and filled to the brim with protein (and incredibly inexpensive), there’s a reason

why so many world class bodybuilders, elite athletes, and top fitness models the world over eat

chicken on a daily basis.

4. Chocolate Milk?!

Milk definitely does a body good, but there’s nothing quite like being able to calm down a

craving for sweets with a glass of chilled chocolate milk. If you’re willing to put in a bit of extra  

time you should look to melt down real deal dark chocolate to be added, but in a pinch that

bottled syrup will do.

Limit your intake to avoid overloading on simple carbs and you’ll still be able to get quite a bit of

extra rapidly digestible protein while kicking your cravings for junk food to the curb. It doesn’t get any

better than that!
