Curvy Goddess Workout – Crystal Series #2: Intro, Part I and II [Video]

by Diane on September 21, 2009



Welcome to NYC Personal Trainer Curvy Goddess Workout on video. This is Week #2 of the Crystal Series. Each video is approximately 10 minutes long. I have a natural pace on the videos but I want you to focus on your natural pace. Don’t try to keep up with me. I want your movements to be conscious and controlled, making sure that you’re in touch with what you’re feeling when you’re doing the movements.

I’d like you to start with 3 days/week with both Part 1 and 2. You may do the workouts everyday if you wish. Don’t be preoccupied with having to take a day break to rest body parts etc. etc. They are 10 min. long — very short and sweet. The focus for the Crystal Series is to get the body used to just moving again — how it’s designed to do.

Thanks so much for all the help your website has provided me with. I have really never heard of the pilates ring before now, but I like it and will definitely have to put that on my list of things to purchase soon. I need a lot of help with my inner thighs and this looks like an exercise I can do without hating it. So thanks again.
