Sticking to those workout goals you set back in January can become a bit more challenging .<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you\u2019re short on time and looking for a good burn, this week\u2019s episode of Well+Good&#8217;s Trainer of the Month Club might just have what you\u2019re looking for. Dancer and Lululemon studio trainer <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/z-p4.www.instagram.com\/theamandabaxter\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/z-p4.www.instagram.com\/theamandabaxter\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amanda Baxter<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> leads viewers in a 10-minute low-impact barre burn.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;If you&#8217;ve never taken barre, it&#8217;s a fusion of yoga, Pilates, as well as ballet technique,&#8221; says Baxter. For the class, she recommends holding onto some sort of &#8220;barre&#8221; to help maintain your balance. She uses a chair, but basically anything you can hold onto (the edge of a table, a sturdy bookshelf) will do the trick.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This workout skips high-impact moves like jumping or burpees in favor of slow and steady engagement of your quads and core. And it may be only 10 minutes long, but because Baxter has you staying low between squats and continuously engaged in your moves, you&#8217;re gonna feel it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAs you&#8217;re going from one position to the next, try to stay low and grounded,&#8221; Baxter says. &#8220;You wanna avoid standing up to transition.&#8221; That&#8217;s because when you come up out of the squat, you&#8217;re letting your muscles rest, which decreases the overall workout intensity (and that spicy muscle \u201cburn\u201d).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baxter starts the workout by walking the legs out to a wide second position (the second of five basic standing positions dancers use in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/new-york-city-ballet-workout\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/new-york-city-ballet-workout\/\">ballet technique<\/a>, according to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbt.org\/learn-and-engage\/resources-audience-members\/ballet-101\/basic-ballet-positions\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.pbt.org\/learn-and-engage\/resources-audience-members\/ballet-101\/basic-ballet-positions\/\"> Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre<\/a>). She then instructs viewers to maintain an upright, engaged core while lowering down into a pulsing squat in this position.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Baxter then adds in a curtsy squat, and has you transitioning between the two. Don&#8217;t worry if that sounds complicated\u2014she explains it all and demonstrates clearly along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"related-content \" style=\"\" data-module-init=\"related-content\" data-module-immediate=\"\" v-cloak=\"\">\n<div class=\"related-content__wrapper \" v-cloak=\"\" :class=\"{'is-loaded':isLoaded}\">\n<p> <span class=\"inline pr-6 text-seafoam-dark\">Related Stories<\/span> <\/p>\n<p> <related-content class=\"related-content__links\" parent-article-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/10-minute-low-impact-barre\/\" current-title=\"This 10-Minute Low-Impact Barre Session Packs a Lot of Burn in a Short Amount of Time\" current-image=\"TOTMC-Low-Impact-Barre-Burn-425x285.jpg\" v-on:parsely-posts-loaded=\"onPostsLoaded\" start-date=\"2022-11-08\" tag=\"div\" inline-template=\"\" url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/10-minute-low-impact-barre\/\" secret=\"w5ztterVB03LGZJLfXS0hf3EvQBuFFIWew9hmVQxthU\" apikey=\"wellandgood.com\" limit=\"3\"> <\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"related-content__card mb-[10px] sm:mb-[20px]\" :class=\"{'related-content__card--full':posts.length === 1}\" v-for=\"(post, key) in posts\"> <a v-on:click.prevent=\"trackLinkGA($event, key)\" :href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/10-minute-low-impact-barre\/post.url\" data-url-source=\"related-content\" class=\"related-content__link\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"\"> <\/p>\n<div class=\"related-content__card--image bg-tan\" :style=\"{ backgroundImage: 'url(' + post.image_url + ')' }\"> <img :src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/10-minute-low-impact-barre\/post.image_url\" :alt=\"post.title\"\/> <\/div>\n<p> <\/a>  <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <\/related-content> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;You\u2019re definitely gonna feel some shakes in the legs. But I want you to remember that those shakes are a sign of strength because we&#8217;re pushing through this,&#8221; says Baxter. &#8220;We&#8217;re building our muscular endurance. So train those muscles, even when they&#8217;re exhausted, to keep working for you.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I want you to remember that those shakes are a sign of strength.&#8221; \u2014Amanda Baxter<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a short workout, but the moves pack a punch in your quads, glutes, and core.
