Get ready for a challenging 30-minute Barre Ankle Weight workout designed to sculpt and strengthen your glutes, thighs, core and entire lower body. This creative barre workout combines light hand weights, ankle weights, a Pilates ball and chair to challenge the muscles through a huge variety of movements and positions.

We start with a cardio sculpt warm-up using light hand weights and compound barre movements including squats, lunges and relevés to heat up the body and activate the muscles.

Then add the ankle weights and chair for a focused standing glute and thigh section. You'll work one side at a time with leg raises, sweeps and heel lifts, targeting the lower body from multiple angles.

Next, the Pilates ball is placed behind the knee for challenging hamstring and oblique exercises. Using the chair for support, you'll gradually change levels and transition from standing work down to the mat.

The seated chair section targets the inner thighs, abs and quads using the ankle weights and Pilates ball for an extra challenge. We then move into side-lying exercises using the chair as a prop for inner and outer thigh sculpting with plenty of oblique engagement.

Expect creative exercises, controlled movements, pulses and a serious lower-body burn! 

The workout finishes with a relaxing full-body lengthening stretch to release the muscles and improve mobility.
