Yet another workout DVD I never thought I would purchase--Jillian Michael's Beginner Shred. I love Jillian Michaels' workouts but they are too much for me right now, so I decided it was time to give this a try. This DVD consists of three approx. 25 minute workouts that become progressively harder, so Workout #1 is … Continue reading Beginner Shred

Barlates: Bodyweight Basics Lower
I thought, by the title (Bodyweight Basics Lower), this might be more my speed. I don't have a problem with Linda's Beginner Interval workouts right now, but her Endurance 90 Lower killed me. I thought--maybe this will be easier than Endurance 90 Lower. And it probably is easier. But chemo is really tearing me down … Continue reading Barlates: Bodyweight Basics Lower
Cathe’s Basic Step
Just like High Step Circuit, when I purchased my club step this DVD was included. I am not an advanced stepper but normally I prefer very intense cardio. So, like High Step Circuit, this DVD was just collecting dust. But due to my new circumstances of needing easier workouts, I decided it was time to finally try … Continue reading Cathe’s Basic Step
High Step Circuit
I got this DVD years ago when I purchased my high step (square step)--it was included with the step. The DVD case says Level: Beginner/Intermediate and since I already own and love High Step Challenge and High Step Training, which are advanced workouts, I never bothered with it. Well, anyone who follows my blog knows … Continue reading High Step Circuit
The Perfect Design: Level I Beginner
I never intended to purchase The Perfect Design: Level I Beginner, but my world has changed so much in the past few months that I decided to give this one a try. I have already done The Perfect Design Level 2 & Level 3 and enjoyed the lower body portions of both. Now that I … Continue reading The Perfect Design: Level I Beginner
Barlates: Beginner Intervals: Ramp It Up
Beginner Intervals: Ramp It Up is the fourth workout in Linda Wooldridge's Beginner Interval series. The other 3 workouts are Old School Aerobics, Compound Moves and Cardio Sculpt. I love all of these workouts but I think Old School Aerobics is still my favorite. Ramp It Up, as indicated by the title, is a bit … Continue reading Barlates: Beginner Intervals: Ramp It Up
JessicaSmithTV: Lower Body: Hips & Glutes Focus
This is a great little lower body workout from Jessica Smith--and free on YouTube! I did it after doing one of Jessica's 15 minute DVD cardio walks and it seemed like it actually worked my lower body very well. I was definitely getting some burn in my glutes. Peanut is there for the entire workout, … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Lower Body: Hips & Glutes Focus
Walk On: 15 Minute Fast Fat Blasts
I bought a bunch of Walk On collections by Jessica Smith to help get me through chemo and yet I keep going back to the same ones--5 Fat Burning Miles and 21 Day Weight Loss Plan. I decided it was time to crack open a few of the others I purchased. So 15 Minute Fast … Continue reading Walk On: 15 Minute Fast Fat Blasts
Barlates: Endurance 90 Lower
Endurance 90 Lower is a super tough (IMHO) workout from Linda Wooldridge. I've really been wanting to do this workout ever since Linda posted it to YouTube but I am getting chemo and my workouts are all over the place. I either cannot workout at all, or I have to do something really easy (Jessica … Continue reading Barlates: Endurance 90 Lower
Walk On: 21 Day Weight Loss Plan
Walk On: 21 Day Weight Loss Plan is a workout program from Jessica Smith for beginners. Because I am currently undergoing chemo, I purchased quite a few of Jessica's Walk On DVDs/programs. I need workouts at this level on hand to get me through the rough days during chemo. And this program worked perfectly for that. Though I … Continue reading Walk On: 21 Day Weight Loss Plan
