…so I do it at home
The Firm was the series that originally got me addicted to home DVD workouts. They challenged me but didn't kill me. I haven't done them in many years however because my fitness level has increased and they stopped challenging me. However, recently I've become a little nostalgic and have been wanting to revisit not only … Continue reading The Firm: Advanced Cardio Blast
***Update--I just posted this review today, but I already received a comment (below) giving me information I did not have before I posted it. Apparently, everything on the YouTube BeFit channel is free! I had no idea. Since this was posted before I had that information, I am not changing the review post, just adding … Continue reading Be Fit in 30 Extreme
I came across this program completely by accident. While perusing a fitness forum I saw a post about Kelly Coffey-Meyer's LIFT workout. LIFT is a powerlifting workout that I love. It is one of a kind. As far as I knew at that time, it was the only powerlifting DVD workout out there. Well, it … Continue reading Weider P.I.N.K.
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
As I mentioned in my review of Element: Cardio & Conditioning Yoga, while browsing the workout DVDs at the library I noticed they not only had new workouts but workouts that had just been released in December 2015. Tracy Anderson's Targeted Training Boot Camp was one of them. I really like Tracy Anderson's lower body … Continue reading Targeted Training Boot Camp
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
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
The Method Express contains six approximately 10 minute workouts by Tracy Anderson. I chose to try this because I am a big fan of Tracy's lower body work but she never chapters. This actually has things broken down into 10 minute blocks--so it is similar to chaptering. I can go to whatever body part I … Continue reading Method Express
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 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
