Upper Body Strength is quick but thorough and efficient upper body strength workout. I used in combination with Jessica's 40 minute Leg Day for an hour long total body strength workout. If you use heavy enough weights, this is pretty intense. Upper Body Strength Workout is 21 minutes long; 2:30 minute warm up and Jessica … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Upper Body Strength

2-in-1 Toning is another short but comprehensive total body metabolic strength workout. Jessica really excels at creating these short but very effective workouts. I really enjoyed this workout.

JessicaSmithTV: 10 Minute Total Body Stretch
10 Minute Total Body Stretch is a great way to finish off a total body workout. I really love that Linda Wooldridge has her free Barlates warm up and upper and lower body stretches to start and finish workouts but she doesn't have a total body stretch to finish off a total body workout. Well, … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: 10 Minute Total Body Stretch
JessicaSmithTV: Weight Loss Cardio Sculpt
Weight Loss Cardio Sculpt isn't a cardio workout. Jessica says that the point of the title is to understand that cardio burns calories in the moment but building muscle burns calories all of the time. This is a metabolic circuit workout. With the right weights, this workout is intense enough to give you a cardio workout, too--that is … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Weight Loss Cardio Sculpt
JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion #1
I did Cardio Mat Fusion #2 before I did Cardio Mat Fusion #1--not on purpose. I just never realized there was a #1 until I was already doing #2. Though this is also a low impact, no equipment workout, I found it different from the second one in several ways. First, this one was more … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion #1
JessicaSmithTV: Dynamic Stretch
Dynamic Stretch is a flowing active yoga routine. I really, really enjoyed this. I have been doing a lot of Jessica's stretching and yoga routines lately and I do like them a lot but they are pretty gentle. I like that this one is a bit more aggressive. Now, it's definitely not an aggressive yoga … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Dynamic Stretch

JessicaSmithTV: Total Body Chisel & Burn
Total Body Chisel & Burn is a short metabolic total body workout. And with the right weights it gets pretty intense. I really enjoyed this workout even though there was no Peanut. Though the exercises are done at a controlled pace, this is a circuit workout with very little rest between each exercise. And since the … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Total Body Chisel & Burn

Yoga for Back Pain is a 43 minute yoga routine by Jessica Smith. The purpose of this routine is to relieve and prevent back pain.

JessicaSmithTV: Short & Sweet Stretch
Jessica's stretching routine is exactly what the title says--short and sweet. She gives you a total body stretch in just 16:30 minutes. Today I used this workout to finish off one of Linda Wooldridge's Barlates total body mat strength routines. Linda did stretch me out afterward, but I have been doing a lot of Barlates … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Short & Sweet Stretch
