Body Beast

My review posts have slowed down, but that is because I have been doing the Body Beast program. I'm doing the entire program, so this review will not post until I am finished. First, what is Body Beast? Body Beast is a Beachbody Fitness Program. Beachbody's website describes it as the most advanced, muscle defining, … Continue reading Body Beast

30 Minutes to Fitness: Muscle Up/Lift 2B Fit

Kelly Coffey-Meyer just came out with 2 new workouts in her 30 Minutes to Fitness series: Home Gym Intervals and Muscle Up/Lift 2B Fit. I pre-ordered them both and did them as soon as I received them (I was actually out of town when they arrived, so I didn't get to do them as soon … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Muscle Up/Lift 2B Fit

30 Minutes to Fitness: Weights

Weights is just another reason why I am so thankful I discovered Kelly Coffey-Meyer. Weights alone is an awesome and versatile little collection of workouts! It is really pretty impressive. I've gone through most of my other new-to-me 30 Minutes to Fitness workouts (not all, but most) and I have recently been trying her pure strength … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Weights

30 Minutes to Fitness: Split Sessions

Split Sessions is the second pure strength workout by Kelly Coffey-Meyer that I've tried and I am impressed. I loved Body Shop for what it was: total body workouts. But this is what the title says it is: split series and it does it very well. In fact, I was able to go pretty heavy … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Split Sessions

Killer Buns & Thighs

Killer Buns & Thighs is another excellent and tough workout collection from Jillian Michaels. This is one of the things I really love about Jillian Michaels; not only does she create effective and tough workouts, but she almost always puts several workouts on one DVD and offers them at an excellent price. So you are … Continue reading Killer Buns & Thighs

Great Glutes

Finally! Number 4 of Cathe's newest workouts is finally up to her usual level of torture! Seriously, though, Great Glutes is an intense and challenging workout for your lower body and I adore it. I pre-ordered all 9 of her new workouts and have done 4 so far. Though I really like the other 3 … Continue reading Great Glutes

Lean Legs and Abs

Lean Legs and Abs could not have come at a better time. It is one of Cathe's new workouts but it also arrived right in the middle of one of Cathe's rotations that I am currently doing: Rock Bottoms. I am not following her rotation to the letter, though I am sticking with the core … Continue reading Lean Legs and Abs

STS Week 22 (Disks 34, 35 & 36)

For more info on STS see STS Overview and Prep. This is it! The final week of STS. Meso 3 week 4 workouts are practically identical to Meso 3's week 1, 2 and 3 workouts. Here is the difference: you are now lifting 85% of your 1RM, but for 8 reps. So you have increased … Continue reading STS Week 22 (Disks 34, 35 & 36)

STS Week 21 (Disks 31, 32 & 33)

For more info on STS see STS Overview and Prep. Like I mentioned in the last review, these reviews are going to get shorter because, just like last week, these workouts are very similar to the first two weeks of Meso 3 (Week 19 and Week 20). The difference? For the upper body workouts you … Continue reading STS Week 21 (Disks 31, 32 & 33)

STS Week 20 (Disks 28, 29 & 30)

For more information on STS see STS Overview and Prep. This next trio of Meso 3 workouts is very similar to the first Meso 3 trio. Here are the differences: for the upper body workouts you are lifting 85% of your 1RM and each set consists of 7 reps (rather than 8); for Plyo Legs, … Continue reading STS Week 20 (Disks 28, 29 & 30)
