This workout is a compilation based on The Method TV show. The segments are compiled into 2 20-minute workouts.

Workout 1 features Lisa Wheeler, who is a very enjoyable instructor. She begins with the “sun breath” sequence, then warms up the lower body with some plies, a warrior sequence and a lunge/kick combo done with several tempo variations. Lisa was barefoot here and I followed her lead on that and found this part a bit uncomfortable. Reverse lunges are really something that requires shoes. Following this we did some inner thigh sweepy stuff, then a very brief Pilates floor segment featuring the rolldown, scissors and the frog move. The workout ended with a short stretch, which was nice since most of these compilation workouts lack a proper cool-down.

Workout 2 featured Jennifer Kries, who is not my favourite Method instructor, but does an okay job here. Her workout is fairly standard pilates ab stuff, which was nice to see after all the ab avoidance in the 20/20 Target Toning tape. We start with some seated stretches and twists, then go into some hundred-type stuff, roll-ups, leg circles, single leg stretch, scissors, double leg stretch and bicycle. Then we do the forward bendy stretch stuff from before, and finish with the hundred and some roll-ups. No cool-down stretch.
