**Note: since I am doing two related systems together, the first few paragraphs in both reviews are similar. I have come across a lot of new programs and trainers lately. Lindsay Brin is the latest. She has a DVD series titled MIF/Mom's Into Fitness. Yeah, I'm a mom, but mine are out of the house, grown … Continue reading Pretty Fierce: Weight Loss

Pretty Fierce: Lean Out
**Note: since I am doing two related systems together the first few paragraphs in both reviews are similar. Pretty Fierce: Lean Out is the other fitness program I purchased by new-to-me trainer Lindsay Brin. She has a DVD series titled MIF/Mom's Into Fitness. I bought two of her programs, Pretty Fierce: Weight Loss and this one because … Continue reading Pretty Fierce: Lean Out
Edge Booty Extreme 2
I discovered this workout system from Oxygen Magazine--they sent me a sales email. I was immediately intrigued. I am getting ready to start another round of STS in September and I am planning on adding additional glute focus. I have already tried The Butt Bible for that purpose and loved it, so I decided I … Continue reading Edge Booty Extreme 2
RIPT90
I discovered RIPT90 thanks to Amazon recommending products it thinks I might be interested in based on my past purchases, my wishlist, my browsing history, etc. RIPT90 appears relatively new. I have not seen this particular program before but Amazon has recommended others by the same company: X-TrainFit. I have looked at X-TrainFit's other programs but they have never … Continue reading RIPT90
Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn
Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn--that title is a mouthful. I want to start this review by saying I am a big fan of Michelle Dozois and her Peak 10 workouts. But I do not like this one. I actually pre-ordered it and Fat Blaster Cardio Strength when they first came out months ago … Continue reading Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn
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
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
Insanity: Asylum Volume 1
I have actually had Asylum Volume 1 for several years. I got it for my birthday right around the same time I rediscovered Cathe, which put a halt to me doing any other program for a long time. However, over the past year I have been doing workouts by other trainers and programs, and I am finally … Continue reading Insanity: Asylum Volume 1
Insanity: Max 30
The long awaited (for me at least) Insanity: Max 30 has arrived. I am a big Shaun T fan. I have Insanity and Asylum 1 (review of Asylum should go up in March--at least that is my current plan) but that is all. I didn't want to get Asylum 2 until I did Asylum 1 … Continue reading Insanity: Max 30
