Can barre count as cardio? You bet.
."Believe it or not, there are such things as ballet burpees," Jake said. Not only will this increase how many calories you'll burn in any given class, but it will also help you torch fat, without sacrificing strength training."HIIT-style workouts are some of the most effective when it comes to burning fat and strengthening the body, and barre workouts are all about elongating the body and making it as lean as possible," Jake said.
While it depends on the type of class and the style of the instructor, Jake explained that, when you incorporate HIIT-inspired exercises and work to hold your poses and form, there's the potential to burn anywhere from 400 to 500 calories on average per class. Plus, by doing barre classes consistently, you'll increase your fitness potential overall, helping you burn more calories in the long run."Barre classes improve your balance and core," Jake said.
