10 Minute of Fat Burning Ballet Cardio - With NO JUMPS 

That's a great idea

May I ask what jumping exercises you did in the past and how long you did them for? I always liked doing HIIT but then I realized how damaging it can be to the body

All kinds of jumps: jumping jacks, high knees, squat thrusts, and many more kinds that I don't remember the names of. And yes, I've done HIIT before and I think that may have worsened the knee problem. My sister who works in physical therapy thinks my quads may still had not been strong enough yet for higher impact exercises and that I quite literally jumped into them before I was truly ready.

@@MizzKittyBichon oh I am sorry...I'm glad your sister can advise you going forward. 🤗Nest Wishes for healing and health.

Sorry for late reply, but nay I wonder what's so bad about HIIT?

@@user-hf5xo3ly4q A lot of HIIT workouts involve jumping, which increases the intensity. Yes, I realize that there are low impact HIIT workouts out there, but the kind I used to do had higher impact, which is how I injured my knees.

Hi Reham I have few free workout plans to guide you through the exercises every day. You can check out them here www.lazydancertips.com/workout-plans They are easy to follow and perfect to start :) Hope they help :) Love Alessia

ahahahah Ellen, I don't know why I came out with bounce :D It's stuck in my head! :D

@@lazydancertips must be a ballet thing luv:)- I am out of commision - I have a bum right knee (chronic) and I overdid step aerobics and other high impact fun stuff over the last few weeks- NOW my left knee is shot- . . . I had to cancel my fitness classes & am off to Georgia today- I am debating if I should get one of those wheel chairs @the airport. . . .. whaaaaa- chronic pain sux. . . . Have a splendid w.end xx

Sadly no. It takes many years of professional training from childhood to become a professional ballet dancer. It isn't something you can teach yourself or learn (at a high level) from watching videos. You can still enjoy doing it at home and taking beginning classes at a studio though.

I don't think it would be a problem, Varicose varies in each individual. Definitely moving an exercising helps with the blood circulation. I often use compression tights/socks as they help with drainage and long time standing fatigued legs. Always check with your doctor in case there is something more to know, and I definitely don't want to give you wrong advices. :) Love Alessia

Lazy Dancer Tips ok sure. Thank you so much!

Spinal decompression works if you can tolerate being strapped to a table that inverts you. It feels great but some people can't do it because of medical conditions. Peace and Blessings to you

@@AraCod thanks a lot ☺️🙏

Keep working on posture :)

pilates workouts can definitely help. I had a ballet teacher remark on improvements in my body and I had not really been trying to make changes; I just enjoyed pilates workouts. Her comment included, "joy has been doing pilates over the summer" in response to improvements on my extensions (ability to lift leg and keep my back up). I was dancing as an adult so improvement after my "prime" was really nice. I would love to do some spinal decompression too because I have pinched nerve issues.

As we mentioned already, there's no way we can turn the camera 180. The goal of a video is to communicate value and in this case, a workout routine. There's no way we can change the set so we're using lights to fill up the mid tones, we know that lens aberrations on backlit set ups are not ideal but a bright backgrounds produce silhouettes quite well and help with contrast. the tradeoff is that the scene is dryed a little, unfortunatey we can't do anything about that. The skintone in the video is quite lifted to not appear dark and the scene is quite contrasty which looked ok to us, again, no perfect. People please tell us if you can't see Alessia because she looks quite sharp to me. Again, in a more controllable situation, we would have arranged the lighting in a completely different way but I don't think anyone is interested on seeying our kitchen in the background and being distracted by the mess, therefore we had to come down to compromises on photographic quality. Please feel free to keep commenting on the lighting, but there's no way we can change it I'm afraid. We believe the image is as good as we can afford it for the moment. Remember also that all of the content on the channel is free and far from being about set lighting techniques. Many Thanks -Iacopo - Co-Director at Lazy Dancer Tips.
