Buns & Guns is another unique workout from Jessica Smith. I really liked this workout. It is high rep so you cannot lift super heavy but it has a lot of unique upper body exercises. I would never use workouts like this as my primary strength training but I love how many of Jessica's workouts … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Buns & Guns

Legs (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio
Leg (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio was an incredible workout. I loved it! This is the second workout I've done by Yvette Bachman and it feels like I am rediscovering Cathe (and Cathe Live) for the first time. I am not implying that she creates Cathe-like workouts. Yvette's workouts are her own creation … Continue reading Legs (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio

JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Bootcamp Boogie
Cardio Bootcamp Boogie is an intense and fun little cardio workout from Jessica Smith. It isn't what I have come to expect from a workout with "bootcamp" in the title. Bootcamp workouts usually combine strength and cardio in timed intervals. This is just straight cardio. I suppose it is done in intervals but they didn't … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Bootcamp Boogie

JessicaSmithTV: Yoga Tone
Yoga Tone is another excellent yoga-strength fusion workout from Jessica Smith. This morning I did her Yoga Sculpt followed by this workout for a 70 minute yoga-strength routine. These aren't cardio yoga workouts but your heart rate will be elevated and you will sweat--or at least I did! Because this is a yoga workout I did … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Yoga Tone

I did them back to back for a 70 minute yoga-strength routine. These aren't cardio yoga workouts but your heart rate will be elevated and you will sweat--or at least I … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Yoga Sculpt

Wow! What a workout! A reader recommended this trainer to me: Yvette Bachman. She owns a studio in Iowa and teaches fitness classes. About 3 months ago she started posting full length workouts. So I had a look and was immediately impressed. I could tell right away that I would really like her workouts but, … Continue reading Cardio Kickbox/Bootcamp
