WALK #2: STRIDE AND STEP - We'll focus on adding intensity with a bit of an incline to boost your burn while developing agility, coordination and spatial awareness. And, not to worry, you can still get a great workout without the step - watch our modifier Debbie, age 60, for options as she demonstrates the entire walk on the floor.
Another great workout from Jessica. All 3 workouts will get you sweating, especially the first one, which is a high intensity interval workout. It's great that Jessica shows you some more advanced moves, but her mom is there to show you the low impact moves. Depending on how I'm feeling I switch between following the two. One workout uses a step and the other a playground ball, but don't worry if you don't have those-her mom does the workouts without a step and a towel. All workouts are around 32 minutes each so you're done before you know it! Will definitely be adding these into my rotation.
I have several Jessica Smith videos and these low-impace workouts have made a tremendous difference in my fitness level. I'm in my mid-60s with knee issues but these workouts don't aggravate my knees and allow me to maintain a healthy weight. They not only provide cardio but improve balance, agility, coordination and flexibility. Jessica is a genius when it comes to making exercise fun and effective.
