Cardio Sculpt is not a cardio workout but a metabolic strength training workout. So it is a fast paced circuit workout where one exercises flows into the next with little to no rest. That is the cardio/metabolic factor. For only 20 minutes, this was a great little workout. I used it in combination w/ Jessica's … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Sculpt

JessicaSmithTV: Cardio + Strength Mash Up
Cardio + Strength Mash Up is only 10 minutes long; 3 minute warm up (the warm up previews first exercise but w/out weights) and 1 minute stretch. So the total actual training time is 6 minutes, not counting warm up and stretch (actually, even less since the last 30 seconds is Jessica talking, so 5:30 minute … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio + Strength Mash Up
JessicaSmithTV: Stretch, Rest & Relax
Stretch, Rest & Relax is a 30 minute full body stretching routine from Jessica Smith. It is nice and gentle, and Jessica stretches you out thoroughly from head to toe. It is filmed in Jessica's backyard. I think I've seen every inch of Jessica's house--inside and out! Just from doing her workouts. Equipment: a mat, … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Stretch, Rest & Relax
JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up
HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up is an incredible workout from Jessica Smith that, as you can tell by the title, mashes a lot of different types of modalities into a single (long) workout.

JessicaSmithTV: Recovery Day Routine
Recovery Day Routine is another nice, relaxing flexibility routine from Jessica Smith. The title says it is 20 minutes but it is actually 26:30 minutes long. This was exactly what I needed after a week of Barlates. This morning (and yesterday) every single muscle in my body was hurting. I started with Jessica's Kickboxing Ballet … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Recovery Day Routine
JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet
Kickboxing Ballet is 29 minutes long; 45 second intro. The warm up is about 3 minutes and, since the workout starts with the ballet/barre portion of the workout--that is what the warm up consists of: gentle dynamic ballet type of moves. Then you go into some more aggressive (but not difficult) ballet/barre work, then you … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet
JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt
Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt is another fun (and free!) fusion workout from Jessica Smith. In this workout you get kickboxing, barre and strength training--all in just under 35 minutes and all low impact. This is not her most intense metabolic workout, but I still loved it. The intensity actually builds as the workout progresses. When … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt
JessicaSmithTV: Total Stretch
Total Stretch is a gentle flexibility and yoga routine Jessica did as part of a 5 day fitness challenge she did with MyFitnessPal. It is 26:30 minutes long and I did it today to finish off Jessica's Superset Sculpt, a total body strength workout. This routine finished that workout off very nicely and stretched me … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Total Stretch
JessicaSmithTV: Superset Sculpt
Superset Sculpt is yet another excellent workout from Jessica Smith. This is a total body strength workout. Jessica supsersets muscle groups and also does a combination of slow and fast tempo reps to really burn your muscles out. And because this is a circuit workout in which one set flows immediately into the next, your … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Superset Sculpt
JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Circuit Workout
Wow! Another awesome workout from Jessica Smith! I loved this workout! Cardio kickboxing drills alternated with metabolic weight training. It was intense and it was fun. This is a high impact workout but Jessica always shows low impact options. There also wasn't a ton of kicking in this "kick" boxing workout, but there is some … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Circuit Workout
