Boxing w/ Leg Blasts is the second Cathe Live workout I've done and I am impressed. What I am seeing so far with the two live workouts I've done, is that even tho Cathe uses familiar exercises that appear in her DVD workouts, things are put together differently. And in ways that I really like. I suppose … Continue reading Cathe Live: Boxing with Leg Blasts

Cathe Live: PHA Training
This is the first Cathe Live workout I did and I love it! What a great workout and the live aspect of it really mixed things up. This is a great total body metabolic strength workout. I own all of Cathe's DVDs and I honestly don't think she has any DVDs out there that are like … Continue reading Cathe Live: PHA Training
Element: Yoga for Weight Loss
Yoga for Weight Loss is another excellent yoga workout from Ashley Turner and Element. Don't let the term "weight loss" in the title scare you away--it's an overall great yoga workout. I guess they titled it "weight loss" because it is one of her more strenuous yoga workouts. I broke a sweat during it but … Continue reading Element: Yoga for Weight Loss
Element: 5 Day Yoga
5 Day Yoga is yet another offering from Element that I sampled via the library. I liked the idea of a different yoga practice every day of the week and I like the way it is delivered even more. It has one of those menus where you can build your own yoga workout. First the … Continue reading Element: 5 Day Yoga
Element: Power Yoga
Power Yoga is another excellent yoga workout by Element and Ashley Turner. I've done quite a few Element and Ashley Turner yoga workouts over the past few weeks and this one is the most advanced and challenging of the ones I've done so far. I wouldn't say it was advanced, but maybe high-intermediate. I worked … Continue reading Element: Power Yoga
Element: Yoga for Stress Relief & Flexibility
Another major winner from Element and yogi Ashley Turner. Before I even get started, I have to preface this by stating that I have always tried to incorporate more yoga into my rotations. I know it is necessary and I even like and enjoy a lot of the yoga workouts I own. However, I have … Continue reading Element: Yoga for Stress Relief & Flexibility
Element: Yoga for Strength & Flexibility
I am so enamored of Element's workouts that I can't stop checking them out at the library to sample them (and then purchasing the ones I love). The workouts are beautifully produced. All of the ones I've done are set in the same location--a beautiful green, vibrant garden beside the Pacific Ocean. They play relaxing … Continue reading Element: Yoga for Strength & Flexibility
Element: Barre Conditioning
This is my Barre week. I checked out a bunch of barre workouts from the library to sample and this was my first. It will not be the first barre review to post, but that is because there are two workouts on this DVD and at the time of this writing, I have only done one … Continue reading Element: Barre Conditioning
Element: Ballet Conditioning
I love Element workouts—even when I don’t love the actual workout. Does that makes sense? Element creates beautiful, well produced workout DVDs, even when the actual workout doesn’t appeal to me. Element: Ballet Conditioning is one of those workouts. It is not a bad workout. Some of it actually challenged me, but overall it is … Continue reading Element: Ballet Conditioning
Pure Barre: 16th Street 2
My barre adventures continue with Pure Barre: 16th Street 2. The library had several Pure Barre workouts but I chose this one because it had the most 5 star reviews on Amazon. Of course, I was checking Amazon on my iphone while at the library so I didn't actually read the reviews. I read them … Continue reading Pure Barre: 16th Street 2
