30 Minutes to Fitness: Slim Sculpting

Slim Sculpting is Kelly Coffey-Meyer's latest offering in her 30 Minutes to Fitness series (she came out with another one as well: Athletic Conditioning) and I love it (as usual). Slim Sculpting is a metabolic strength workout using a kettlebell. I happen to love kettlebell workouts so I was very excited when Kelly announced this. … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Slim Sculpting

H.I.5 (High Intensity 5)

HI 5 is Paul Katami's new workout. I actually have a lot of Paul's workouts on my wishlist, but for some reason I haven't purchased them yet. This one caught my eye, as did his other new one Kettlebell Krush. So I splurged and bought them both. HI 5 is an intense metabolic weight training … Continue reading H.I.5 (High Intensity 5)

Weider Ruthless

Weider Ruthless was discovered by accident. Actually, Amazon's practice of "recommending" things they think I might be interested in buying, based on my past purchases, things on my wishlist, things I browse, etc. is a pretty good method to get me to spend $$ as I have purchased several things because of their recommendations. This is … Continue reading Weider Ruthless

Fierce Force

Fierce Force was given to me by reader of this blog (Thanks Lisa!) as something I might like. I had actually been considering it since Amazon frequently recommended it to me as something I might enjoy. So I'm back, after a month long blogging hiatus, to finally try something new-to-me. I haven't stopped working out … Continue reading Fierce Force

Play Ball

I really wanted to love this workout by Patrick Goudeau. Play Ball is described as a "30-minute total body blast [that] is jam-packed with fun" and all you need is a medicine ball. Well, I have 3 medicine balls--2 eight pounders and 1 four pounder that don't get enough play. And the fact that it is … Continue reading Play Ball

30 Minute to Fitness: Home Gym Intervals

Home Gym Intervals is one of Kelly Coffey-Meyer's newest 30 Minutes to Fitness workouts. I had it on pre-order and I wanted to do it as soon as it arrived, but I was actually out of town on vacation when it arrived so I wasn't able to give it a go until I got back … Continue reading 30 Minute to Fitness: Home Gym Intervals

Body Weight Blast

Wow! Another winner by Patrick Goudeau and I think this one is my new favorite! It is tough, fun and signature Patrick metabolic strength training. I think this is his best one yet. Don't let the title Body Weight Blast fool you--this is not a body weight only workout. In fact, he uses heavier dumbbells … Continue reading Body Weight Blast

30 Minutes to Fitness: Step Boxing

I almost didn't buy this step boxing workout. I bought Kelly Coffey-Meyer's original (non-30 Minutes to Fitness) Step Boxing workout and loved it. But I read some reviews that the choreography in this one was complicated, so I passed on it. I came back to look at the reviews again and I couldn't find them! … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Step Boxing

Hard Work Conditioning (1)

Now, I will admit, I do not own a vast library of Patrick Goudeau workouts, but of the ones I do own, I’ve come expect something from him: a brutal and taxing workout. So with the title of Hard Work Conditioning (and after doing Hard Work Conditioning 2) I was expecting some seriously hard work. … Continue reading Hard Work Conditioning (1)

Moxie 1 & 2

Moxie 1 and Moxie 2 are 20 minute workouts by Heather Corndorf. There is a bit of a story behind these two workouts. The first workout I did by Heather was Kickbox Burn which was "presented" by Patrick Goudeau and sold under his label of DVDs (not sure the terminology for workout DVDs)--basically he produced … Continue reading Moxie 1 & 2
