10 Minute Solution: Butt Lift

I have purchased another 10 Minute Solution! I can't believe I had forgotten about these workouts. They are such neat little gems. I am digging out some of my older ones to use as add-ons again, so I will be reviewing a few more of these in the future. I was inspired to purchased Butt … Continue reading 10 Minute Solution: Butt Lift

X10

  ***Updated 10/17/13 X10 is INSANE! I don't even know how to describe it. But I will try. X10 is a mix and match conglomeration. It contains five "10 minute" segments. NONE of these are actually 10 minutes--they are all longer, but we'll get to that in a moment. It also contains a warm up … Continue reading X10

10 Minute Solution: High Intensity Interval Training

10 Minute Solution has moved into the HIIT arena with their High Intensity Interval Training. Believe it or not I own a ton of these DVDs. I don't know how many will ever be reviewed on this blog but I do own them and have no intention of getting rid of them. Before I get … Continue reading 10 Minute Solution: High Intensity Interval Training

STS Week 22 (Disks 34, 35 & 36)

For more info on STS see STS Overview and Prep. This is it! The final week of STS. Meso 3 week 4 workouts are practically identical to Meso 3's week 1, 2 and 3 workouts.

STS Week 21 (Disks 31, 32 & 33)

For more info on STS see STS Overview and Prep. Like I mentioned in the last review, these reviews are going to get shorter because, just like last week, these workouts are very similar to the first two weeks of Meso 3 (Week 19 and Week 20). The difference? For the upper body workouts you … Continue reading STS Week 21 (Disks 31, 32 & 33)

STS Week 20 (Disks 28, 29 & 30)

For more information on STS see STS Overview and Prep. This next trio of Meso 3 workouts is very similar to the first Meso 3 trio. Here are the differences: for the upper body workouts you are lifting 85% of your 1RM and each set consists of 7 reps (rather than 8); for Plyo Legs, … Continue reading STS Week 20 (Disks 28, 29 & 30)

STS Week 19 (Disks 25, 26 & 27)

For more information on STS see STS Overview and Prep Mesocycle 3 begins! And since I am doing the 5.5 month rotation (rather than a 6.5 month rotation) I will only be in Meso 3 one month--so the STS reviews will be coming out weekly for the next 4 weeks. I also decided to not … Continue reading STS Week 19 (Disks 25, 26 & 27)

Bob Harper’s Skinny Rules Workouts

Bob Harper has created 12 workouts to accompany his Skinny Rules plan. They are all short workouts, all clocking in at under 20 minutes (not including the warm up; if the warm up is done with the workouts you can tack on 11 minutes, which puts most of them at or over 20 minutes and … Continue reading Bob Harper’s Skinny Rules Workouts

ACE HIIT Series

ACE HIIT Series workouts are led by Chris Freytag. I have a few workouts by Chris and I really like them but I never do them anymore. They are more intermediate workouts and, well, I am an advanced exerciser now. However, when I was a more intermediate exerciser, I found them to be solid workouts. … Continue reading ACE HIIT Series

Peak 10 Cardio Interval Burn Remix

Yet another tough Peak 10 workout by Michelle Dozois. Cardio Interval Burn Remix is cardio/HIIT--no strength. 60 minutes; 4 minute warm up, 51 minute training time and 5 minute cool down and stretch. I like all of Michelle's Peak 10 workouts, but I like the Cardio Strength workouts the best. Not only are they tougher, … Continue reading Peak 10 Cardio Interval Burn Remix
