If you're looking for well thought out and challenging fitness routines, Back On Pointe is a good place to start. She has well-rounded general workouts and several different workouts if you're targeting muscle tone in specific areas of the body.
Upper body strength is of the utmost importance in aerial dance, and I have been on the search for upper body and arm routines that I can supplement my training with. Everything I've read says your body gets used to doing the same sets of exercises over and over again. So, I want to constantly be doing something different.
Her routines are great, because you don't have to go to a gym to do them. Most of the exercises use things commonly found in your house. Some of them occasionally require free weights, but they are inexpensive and can be found at Wal-Mart or Target.
The only thing I don't like about her routines is that she's fond of the Mountain Climber move. I hate that move. I want it to do die in a fire.
It's too soon yet to make any sort of judgement on the effectiveness of the routines, but I will you posted.
