…so I do it at home
Burn 300 Calories in 30 Minutes is another excellent workout from Popsugar. It is essentially a cardio workout but it uses several different modalities to get your heart pumping. I real enjoyed it. It was intense but not super intense. And, I only mention this because of the title, I didn't burn 300 calories. According … Continue reading Popsugar: Burn 300 Calories in 30 Minutes
I already have a blog post called BeFit in 30 Extreme which is the review of a DVD workout I checked out at the library. It contains three 20 minute workouts. You do each workout once a week and repeat for 30 days. Well, that DVD was just the first month of the BeFit in … Continue reading BeFit in 30 Extreme//90 Day Program
Maximum HIIT Workout for Weight Loss is another 15 minute workout from BeFit. This workout is led by Mike Donavanik. I actually own one DVD by him: Extreme Burn Total Body Interval Training. I only did it once but I remember not liking it. So I was a bit hesitant when I realized he led … Continue reading BeFit: Maximum HIIT Workout for Weight Loss
Another great little workout from Popsugar and Anna Renderer. So far I've enjoyed every little Popsugar workout I've done. And the best part? They are all FREE! As usual, I used 20 Minute 200 Calorie Blaster as an add-on/finisher workout. I was already pretty wore out after the Cathe Live workout I had just completed--Total … Continue reading Popsugar: 20 Minute 200 Calorie Blaster
This is the second free GymRa workout I've done and the first thing I want to say is I really liked this workout a lot. However, it had the same problem as the first one I did (Tabata Extreme)--boring, uninspiring music that you can barely hear. Which makes me think that maybe what I need … Continue reading GymRa: Burn 300 Calories Metabolism Booster HIIT Workout
Bootcamp w/ Step is another awesome, fun and effective cardio + strength Cathe Live workout. This workout is set up circuit fashion. There are 8 circuits and each circuit consists of a cardio blast on the step followed by a lower body strength exercise and ending with an upper body strength exercise. The workout ends … Continue reading Cathe Live: Bootcamp w/ Step
Legs w/ Weights & Stability Ball is another tough and excellent lower body workout. This one is along the lines of STS Mesocycle 2's lower body workouts. It is set up in trisets--3 exercises done one right after the other with little rest between. You repeat each triset 3 times. What was really surprising about … Continue reading Cathe Live: Legs w/ Weights & Stability Ball
Quick Fix Kickboxing plus 100 Reps Boxing Bonus Challenge plus Step & Weight Drills--that title is quite a mouthful. And an awesome workout! I loved it! When Cathe announced it, I wanted to do it right away, but I have these rotations I do... and I was in the middle of one... but I managed … Continue reading Cathe Live: Quick Fix Kickboxing plus 100 Reps Boxing Bonus Challenge plus Step & Weight Drills
Holy $hit. This workout was brutal. I did not expect this workout to be so effing hard when I decided to try it. In fact, I had some mixed feelings about it. After watching the video clip, I didn't even really know if I was interested in it or not then decided--what the heck. I … Continue reading Cathe Live: Totally Toned Legs
Fit 'N' Firm is a total body metabolic strength workout. It is a very good workout but for some reason I didn't love it as much as I love most of Cathe's other Cathe Live workouts. However, I did feel thoroughly worked out. Though it is total body, I feel it hits the upper body much harder … Continue reading Cathe Live: Fit ‘N’ Firm
