Step & Strength Circuit is an awesome metabolic strength workout. It is a cardio + strength workout but I found the strength work more cardiovascularly intense than the step cardio! Jessica even commented that she was breathing harder during the strength work than during the step cardio. I was, too! The strength work is very … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Step & Strength Circuit

JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up
HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up is an incredible workout from Jessica Smith that, as you can tell by the title, mashes a lot of different types of modalities into a single (long) workout. This workout was amazing! One of the best workouts I've ever done--and it is free for everyone on YouTube! Thank you … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up
JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Circuit Workout
Wow! Another awesome workout from Jessica Smith! I loved this workout! Cardio kickboxing drills alternated with metabolic weight training. It was intense and it was fun. This is a high impact workout but Jessica always shows low impact options. There also wasn't a ton of kicking in this "kick" boxing workout, but there is some … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Circuit Workout
GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (25 Minutes)
I added the (25 minutes) to the title because GymRa has a second workout with the exact same title and exact same trainer (Raneir Pollard)--except it's 26 minutes. I have already reviewed Raneir's 26 Min Grueling HIIT, so I needed something to set them apart. This is another great workout led by Raneir. The intensity … Continue reading GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (25 Minutes)
JessicaSmithTV: 30 Minute H.I.I.T.
Jessica Smith's 30 Minute H.I.I.T. is an excellent workout that I (of course) love, but it's not really a HIIT workout. It is an interval workout and I loved it, but I didn't find it HIIT level intense. I have the day off today (4 day weekend) so I got to do a longer morning … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: 30 Minute H.I.I.T.

JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Mash Up
HIIT Mash Up is a 61 minute workout from Jessica Smith--and it is free on YouTube. Though this workout is intense and worked me hard, I don't know that it deserves "HIIT" in the title. My heart rate never peaked but it did get my heart rate up into the cardio zone and kept it … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Mash Up

Barlates: Full Body Weights Express
Full Body Weights Express is the final workout on one of Linda Wooldridge's Barlates workout DVDs that contains three 20 minute workouts. That review is also going up very soon. But since Full Body Weights Express is also offered for free on YouTube, it gets a separate post. And this was an excellent workout. It … Continue reading Barlates: Full Body Weights Express
