I am currently limited to low impact cardio and standing lower body work that uses no dumbbells. So I have been doing lots of barre workouts! This is one of Linda Wooldridge's free Barlates workouts on YouTube. It has been on my To Do list for a while and I finally got to it this … Continue reading Barlates: Ballet Sculpt Lower

JessicaSmithTV: HIIT for Beginners: Cardio Intervals
Since I need to stick with low impact cardio for a while, I decided to check out some of Jessica Smith's free YouTube HIIT for Beginner workouts. I did get a better cardio workout from this than I did from her 1 Mile Belly, Buns & Thighs Walk. It isn't super intense--at least when done … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: HIIT for Beginners: Cardio Intervals
JessicaSmithTV: Lunge Free Lower Body Workout
As I mentioned in my post about Jessica Smith's 1 Mile Belly, Buns & Thigh Walk, I am getting back to working out today but starting slow with short, low impact and lower body focused workouts. So I started with Jessica's 15 minute walk and finished with this 15 minute barre workout. This wasn't the … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Lunge Free Lower Body Workout
JessicaSmithTV: 1 Mile Belly, Buns & Thighs Walk
I have been away for a while but I am back! Not at the same level I was pre-surgery but I am starting recovery level workouts that focus on my lower body and have no impact. This looked perfect. This is one of Jessica Smith's free YouTube workouts. She has a lot of free walking … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: 1 Mile Belly, Buns & Thighs Walk
Cardio Back & Bicep Burn
I am feeling much better this morning so I was thrilled to actually enjoy my workout again! I didn't take Nyquil last night so that wasn't dragging me down this morning either. This morning was Cardio Back & Bicep Burn by Yvette Bachman. This is one of her newer workouts and I knew from the … Continue reading Cardio Back & Bicep Burn
Cardio Kickboxing, Triceps & Abs
I am getting very frustrated with this illness. I can't seem to shake this head cold and the Nyquil I am taking so I can sleep (and breathe) at night is kicking my butt. I love my morning workouts but the past few days I have been struggling through them thanks to the cold and … Continue reading Cardio Kickboxing, Triceps & Abs
HIIT Cardio/Core Workout
I found HIIT Cardio/Core Workout to be a very tough workout this morning. But I do have to add the disclaimer that I have been sleeping poorly and have a lot of stressful things going on in my life right now so I think that is affecting my workouts. Whatever the reason, this workout kicked … Continue reading HIIT Cardio/Core Workout
Fit Body by Julia: Legs, Shoulders & Back Strength Gains
Legs, Shoulders & Back Strength Gains is the latest Fit Body by Julia workout I have done. I haven't done any new-to-me Fit Body by Julia workouts in a while but I have returned to ones I've already done and reviewed here. However, this morning I decided to give this one a try since it … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: Legs, Shoulders & Back Strength Gains
HIIT Step/Bicep Weight Circuits
HIIT Step/Bicep Weight Circuits is an intense cardio + strength workout. Because it is one of Yvette's long workouts (71:30 minutes) this can be shortened into an approx. hour long cardio only workout. The first 52 minutes (including the warm up) is all interval cardio. When Yvette has you add risers to your step, stop … Continue reading HIIT Step/Bicep Weight Circuits
Cardio/Kettlebell Mash Up
Cardio/Kettlebell Mash Up is an interval workout that alternates kettlebell exercises with cardio exercises. The workout ends with some lower body and core work using the stability ball. Since kettlebell work is very metabolic anyway, this is non-stop cardio. Yet another workout from Yvette Bachman that I absolutely love. It is more of a moderate … Continue reading Cardio/Kettlebell Mash Up
