The Xtend™ workout targets all the major muscle groups. Classes begin with an invigorating warm up which increases the heart rate and prepares students for the work ahead. Then the upper body segment begins using light weights to target the shoulders, biceps, triceps, and upper back muscles. Next, students challenge their entire body, executing an intense seat and thigh series with the support of a ballet barre. Xtend™ then engages the core deeper with an intense abdominal series performed on the floor. A calming stretch series relaxes the body and mind, concluding the Xtend™ class. Choreography and music consistently change to keep classes fresh and clients motivated. No Xtend™ class is ever the same!
