Never has marketing sold me on a program as strongly as it has Meta Shred. I am familiar w/ BJ Gaddour from 10 Minute Torchers and though I liked him and his workouts, his name is not what sold me. I follow Men's Health on Facebook and the ad for Meta Shred kept popping up. I … Continue reading Meta Shred 21

The Master’s Hammer & Chisel
When Hammer & Chisel was first announced I was so excited! I loved Body Beast so when I saw Sagi was coming out with a new strength training program I planned to purchase it as soon as it was available. They initially announced it via a cryptic trailer several months before it was released and showed … Continue reading The Master’s Hammer & Chisel
Element: Cardio & Conditioning Yoga
I happened to be browsing the workout DVDs at the library and I saw they had a few brand new DVDs--workouts that had just been released in December 2015! Element's Cardio Conditioning Yoga was one of them. Since I am so enamored of most the Element workouts I've done so far, I decided to give … Continue reading Element: Cardio & Conditioning Yoga
Kettlebell Drills
Kettlebell Drills by Paul Katami is a great kettlebell workout collection. It contains a 35 minute clinic in which Paul teaches you kettlebell basics such as the different grips and 15 kettlebell exercises. It was not as easy as I expected it to be, either. Yes, you get long breaks as he teaches and demonstrates … Continue reading Kettlebell Drills
Killer Arms & Back
Killer Arms & Back is the 4rd (and final) workout collection in Jillian Michael's Killer series. The other 3 workout collections in the series are Killer Abs, Killer Buns & Thighs and Killer Body. This DVD contains 3 approximately 30 minute workouts that work the entire upper body--not just the arms and back. And since this … Continue reading Killer Arms & Back
Physique 57: Express 30 Minute Full Body Workout
Express 30 Minute Full Body Workout is another excellent Physique 57 workout. I wasn't expecting this one to hit my lower body as hard as Thigh & Seat Booster, but it did! It fried my lower body! It isn't really the total body workout it claims to be tho. It does hit your core nicely … Continue reading Physique 57: Express 30 Minute Full Body Workout
30 Minutes to Fitness: Strength & Stamina
Strength & Stamina is Kelly Coffey-Meyer's other new workout DVD in her 30 Minutes to Fitness series. The other one that was recently released is Athletic Conditioning 2, which I did and reviewed yesterday. Consensus is--they are both awesome workouts! Just like all of her 30 Minute to Fitness DVDs, this one contains 2 approx. … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Strength & Stamina
30 Minutes to Fitness: Athletic Conditioning Volume 2
Athletic Conditioning Vol 2 is the second volume in Kelly Coffey-Meyer's Athletic Conditioning series. They are a "young adult series" within her 30 Minutes to Fitness series that was apparently created to help young people stay in shape in their off season. This was explained in Volume 1. Volume 2 just carries the title and … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Athletic Conditioning Volume 2
Physique 57: Thigh & Seat Booster
I really wanted to try Physique 57 workouts after doing Xtend Barre: Lean & Chiseled because it was recommended to me as being similar. I loved Xtend Barre and was very disappointed to discover there were no more by the trainer and that it wasn't a series. I was disappointed that my public library did … Continue reading Physique 57: Thigh & Seat Booster
Burn at the Barre: The Advanced Workout
Burn at the Barre: The Advanced Workout is another library check out. I have already done Burn at the Barre (intermediate level I guess?) and they also have a Beginner level workout. The first one I did (the subtitle for that one is Total Dancer Body Workout for all levels) was 62 minutes long and … Continue reading Burn at the Barre: The Advanced Workout
