Question 3

Does this dvd only include 1 workout or are there options for rotation? could a person do 20 min chunks or is it designed to be one long workout?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for the great question!  There is only one workout on this DVD, and it is balanced and set up to work all of the major muscle groups.  The beginning of the DVD is the warmup, then the workout, and then the cool down. You could do the warm-up and cool down and vary up different sections of the workout each day if you would like.  Keep in mind, our online studio has shorter workouts that are balanced.  Feel free to get back to us if you have any other questions. God bless!

In the Level 1 Mercy Pietra Fitness, the lady uses "swan dive" where you bend forward towards your feet when transitioning to the next stretch.  The "swan dive" does not last long, less than 30 seconds but is used throughout the workout.  There is "pike pose" where the hands and feet are on the floor and the body looks like an inverted V.  This lasts about two minutes at the beginning for stretching.  The "pike pose" is then used briefly as transition several times for the rest of the workout.  I find it best to do the Pietra Fitness, first thing in the morning before breakfast or 3-4 hours after lunch.   When I first got the Level 1 Mercy, I watched the whole thing and then began slow.  I could only do about 20 minutes of it.  The instructor is really good about telling you where to stop or how far to go if you are a beginner, which I was since I had not been able to exercise for almost 5 years because of an illness.   A couple of years after using Level 1 Mercy I bought their Gentle Restoration video.  I originally bought it for my Mom but decided to keep it since it is gentle, yet it helps you stretch.  It has a brief "pike pose" and some stretching while on your hands and knees and most of the workout is done on the floor.  I hope this helps, I have given it to family members as gifts and I have used it for several years now.  It has made a difference for me.
