This 6 move workout strengthens the core, builds muscle and helps to lower hormonal stress

We’ve tried Barre before, in fact we even tried doing barre workouts every day for a week, and loved that it can be done from the comfort of your own home and work muscles all over the body without the addition of any fancy equipment. Plus, Barre is a great way to challenge the core and improve your posture and flexibility. But what if we told you it’s also a great stress busting workout?

After all, exercise is so much more than the physical results. Yes, it feels good to know you’ve worked hard after a session and start to see your body change aesthetically. But, working out can also do wonders for our overall wellbeing, and be a real help when it comes to managing things like hormones.

We spoke to Catie Miller, the trainer and founder of the Barre Series, to find out what relationship exercise has with managing hormonal stress and how to use Barre to do just that while we work our muscles in a low impact and effective way.
