iStretch 8 take 1
Who: Radagast and SO
Exercise type: iStretch 8 - Athletic stretch (a downloaded, mp3-based stretching workout)
Portions of mp3: Entire 20-minute workout
Duration: ~20 minutes
Notes: This was a hips- and legs-focused stretching workout that also included a few good balancing exercises/stretches. This required a bit more muscular work than Pure and Simple Stretch, but wasn't nearly as comprehensive of a stretch workout (it was also half the length).
This was an audio-only workout from iTrain; the audio prompting was easy to follow. The workout also included a supplemental PDF with pictures and descriptions of the poses. Unlike iStretch 6, this PDF was comprehensive (including good text descriptions of each stretch), though because the audio commentary was so good we only referred back to the PDF once during the entire workout. We both liked the background music.
Radagast's totals: 46/225; 4/75; $425.00
Radagast's SO's totals: 49/225; 4/75; -$20.00
