“Why we love it: the combo of ballet barre work, yoga and Pilates uses ‘slow and controlled movements’ to make your muscles feel it during and after, our sore testers say. Switch between lower-body focused exercises, like lunges on toes, and upper-body exercises, like mini pulses that make your triceps burn. Then finish on the floor with more butt and thigh toners. The instruction, by Sadie Lincoln – her client Madonna is a fan – helps this DVD feel like a private lesson. Just when you’re thinking ‘Am I doing this right?’ she’ll give you spot-on pointers.”
