Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt is another fun (and free!) fusion workout from Jessica Smith. In this workout you get kickboxing, barre and strength training--all in just under 35 minutes and all low impact. This is not her most intense metabolic workout, but I still loved it.

There also wasn't a ton of kicking in this "kick" boxing workout, but there is some … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Circuit Workout

Plus I had some Groupon credit, so it cost me even less than that! Seemed like a value--a whole year of yoga for $12. So … Continue reading The Yoga Collective

I really enjoyed this workout but first … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion 2 (Low Impact Cardio)
JessicaSmithTV: Met Con 5
"Met Con" is short for metabolic conditioning and the "5" means the workout is made up of 5 key moves. Jessica says during the warm up that this is not a workout for beginners. And I agree. It isn't an advanced workout, but it is intermediate level and pretty intense if you are using appropriate … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Met Con 5
