10 Minute Torchers

10 Minute Torchers was discovered completely by accident. First, I came across a forum post about a Men's Health workout series called The Anarchy Workout. I was curious so I did some research on it. When I decided to spring for it, I was offered 10 Minute Torchers at the checkout. So, of course, before … Continue reading 10 Minute Torchers

Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Strength

Now this is more like it! Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Strength is another tough and intense metabolic weight training workout from Michelle Dozois. The Fat Blasters are the latest installment in her Peak 10 series and I did not like Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn at all. The Peaks were not very intense and … Continue reading Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Strength

30 Minutes to Fitness: Cardio Pump

Cardio Pump is Kelly Coffey-Meyer's other new 30 Minutes to Fitness workout DVD. The other one she just released is Lean Body Circuits. I love them both but this one is my favorite of the two. Cardio Pump contains two approximately 30 minute workouts. One is strength training done "pyramid" style and one is cardio … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Cardio Pump

30 Minutes to Fitness: Lean Body Circuits

Kelly Coffey-Meyer's new workouts arrived! I couldn't wait to try them out. The trailers for both of them look awesome! The other new workout DVD is Cardio Pump--that review should be posting early next week. Lean Body Circuits is very similar to Circuit Burn which is one of my all time favorite workouts by Kelly. … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Lean Body Circuits

Jillian Michaels BodyShred

I have been very impatiently awaiting Jillian's BodyShred program! And now that I own it, I look at it with some trepidation. The trailer for it looks scary hard. But I am up for the challenge! BodyShred is the next step after Body Revolution. Body Revolution had 3 stages--beginner, intermediate and advanced. And the advanced … Continue reading Jillian Michaels BodyShred

Iron Core Kettlebell

Iron Core Kettlebell is a neat collection of Sarah Lurie kettlebell workouts I got on Amazon for a great price. It is actually 4 separate workout DVDs that were originally sold separately: Kettlebells the Iron Core Way Volume 1 (currently $47.75), Kettlebells the Iron Core Way Volume 2 (currently $14.91 used, new $79), Iron Core Warrior  (currently … Continue reading Iron Core Kettlebell

Double Down

Double Down is a new cardio + strength workout led by both Amy Dixon and Paul Katami. Two trainers I love, so of course I had to get it. The concept of this workout is to start an exercise, then at some point double your effort--hence the title Double Down. It is set up in 8 … Continue reading Double Down

Breathless Body 4: Going Strong

Going Strong is the newest high intensity workout from Amy Dixon in her Breathless Body series and I love it! I love all of her Breathless Body workouts but this is my absolute favorite. However, it deviates from the first 3 a lot. In fact, it is more along the lines of Patrick Goudeau's awesome … Continue reading Breathless Body 4: Going Strong

Kettlebell Kickboxing: The Body Series

Kettlebell Kickboxing: The Body Series was a major impulse buy. Even as I review the materials before beginning I feel a little uneasy. Not that I think it will be too difficult, but that I made a mistake. I really like kettlebell workouts so when I saw an entire kettlebell program I decided, why not? I … Continue reading Kettlebell Kickboxing: The Body Series

Killer Body

Killer Body is Jillian Michael's latest offering. As usual she has given us multiple challenging workouts on one DVD for a great price. This collection is a little different than her usual offerings and I really like it. Usually her workouts are total body, or core focused but this collection is giving you splits, which … Continue reading Killer Body
