Cardio Ball Ballet is similar to Jessica Smith's other free workout Cardio Ball Blast--but different, too. During the workout she said she got requests for more cardio ball workouts and more cardio ballet workouts so she decided to combine them into this workout. I haven't done her cardio ballet workout but I did enjoy Cardio … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Ball Ballet

Barlates: Full Body HIIT Series
Full Body HIIT contains three approx. 20 minute workouts. I loved these workouts. Not only are they great workouts on their own, but because of their length, the can be used in other ways. I can use them as my doubles workout which is how I did them the first time I tried them (my second … Continue reading Barlates: Full Body HIIT Series
Callanetics Extreme
Callanetics Extreme is a 70 minute bodyweight strength workout. I decided to try it mostly out of curiosity. Amazon kept recommending it to me and it got great reviews. The trainer that leads the workout is a woman named Lacey Kondi. I did find this to be different than any other workout I've done. It … Continue reading Callanetics Extreme
Barlates: Full Body Barre Express
Full Body Barre Express is a very intense little cardio workout from Linda Wooldridge. Though it is 21 minutes long the actual "work" period is 16 minutes long. This is another workout that is available both on DVD and YouTube. I own the DVD and there are two other workouts included on the DVD, so that … Continue reading Barlates: Full Body Barre Express

Cathe Live: Legs w/ Weights & Barre
Legs w/ Weights & Barre is a Live workout I somehow missed. Not sure how--but thanks to a Cathe forum friend, I did not overlook it! This a great metabolic lower body workout. It is deceiving, too. I created my workout card in advance and was surprised that Cathe used 10 pound dumbbells for everything. … Continue reading Cathe Live: Legs w/ Weights & Barre
Cathe Live: Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core
Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core is another fun, effective and excellent workout that is unique to Cathe Live. You get it all in this workout: cardio, barre, core and total body strength training. Now, I will say it isn't the most thorough strength training workout and, because of the brisk pace, you cannot lift … Continue reading Cathe Live: Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core
The Booty Barre : Beginner’s & Beyond
I'm a big fan of Tracey Mallett's workouts but I put off purchasing this one because of the subtitle: Beginners & Beyond. I am not advanced in the barre realm but I also don't want a beginner workout. But the more I read about it the more I decided I might like it anyway. The … Continue reading The Booty Barre : Beginner’s & Beyond
