***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.

Abs & Push Ups Plus
Abs & Push Ups Plus is another body-weight only workout by Ilaria Montagnani. As I mentioned in the Atletica 4 review, I purchased these two body-weight only workouts for my daughter who is leaving for college and moving into the dorms.

Atletica 4 is another tough and unique workout by Ilaria Montagnani. This one is only 30 minutes but she burns you out in that short amount of time.

ACE HIIT Series

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

Jillian Michaels: Ripped in 30
Ripped in 30 consists of four workouts, each approx. 30 minutes in length. Each workout uses Jillian’s signature 3-2-1 structure: 3 minutes of strength, 2 minutes of cardio and 1 minute of abs. Each workout consists of three of these 3-2-1 circuits. I really like this structure even though it can be exhausting. I will … Continue reading Jillian Michaels: Ripped in 30
