I discovered this workout when perusing fitness forums. I vaguely remember some contest run by both Men's Health and Women's Health about choosing the next "top trainer." The winner got to create a workout series. That's the last I heard of it. Well, as it turns out, The Anarchy Workout was created by the male … Continue reading The Anarchy Workout

Jillian Michaels BodyShred
I have been very impatiently awaiting Jillian's BodyShred program! And now that I own it, I look at it with some trepidation. The trailer for it looks scary hard. But I am up for the challenge! BodyShred is the next step after Body Revolution. Body Revolution had 3 stages--beginner, intermediate and advanced. And the advanced … Continue reading Jillian Michaels BodyShred
You Are Your Own Gym (YAYOG)
After doing Mark Lauren's EFX and reading his books (You Are Your Own Gym and Body By You), I had to get the rest of his DVDs. This series/program is based on his book with the same title: You Are Your Own Gym or YAYOG for short (he also has an app based on his … Continue reading You Are Your Own Gym (YAYOG)
Ripped with HIIT: HIIT Upper Body Circuit
For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post. (Also, these reviews are being posted out of order--this was the first workout I did after receiving the series, but it is the last one that will post--that is why they read a little "off.") It arrived! It finally arrived! Cathe's new series/program … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT: HIIT Upper Body Circuit
30 Minutes to Fitness: Your Best Body
I am at the end of my new-to-me Kelly Coffey-Meyer workouts (though I have her newest on pre-order) and it seems I have saved the best for last. Your Best Body is an incredible workout duo. In some ways it is similar to Weights (which I also love) but in other ways it is unique. … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Your Best Body
Tonique 2
Tonique is a unique series of workouts created by Sylwia Wiesenberg. These workouts were recommended to me as advanced workouts, so I, of course, quickly ordered one to check it out for myself. I found the descriptions of the workouts a little odd; they didn't really give me the information I am looking for when … Continue reading Tonique 2
Hard Body
Hard Body is one of Jillian Michael's newer workouts (she just released another one, One Week Shred, which I had on pre-order and just received this weekend. I'll be reviewing it soon!). Hard Body consists of two cardio + strength workouts that are 45 and 50 minutes. Neither of them are beginner workouts. I would say Level 1, if you … Continue reading Hard Body
Chiseled
Chiseled is a tough cardio + strength/metabolic strength training workout from Toby Massenburg. It is advanced, but very doable for all fitness levels. This is my second workout by Toby and what I like is how in both of his workouts that I've done, he incorporates just the right amount of recovery so you can … Continue reading Chiseled
Intensity Overload: No Equipment Required
Mindy Mylrea is another of the many new-to-me trainers I am sampling. Thus far I have been extremely happy with the new trainers and I really like Mindy, too--but I am not completely thrilled with this DVD. I actually got two workouts by Mindy--this one and Tabata with Toys. I am loving Tabata with Toys, … Continue reading Intensity Overload: No Equipment Required
Rapid Fire 3
Susan Chung is another new trainer for me! And I have found yet another one I really like! I can't believe the new gems I am discovering. Susan doesn't have a lot of workouts for me to glom, but glom them I will! Susan creates kickboxing workouts. I don't know the composition of the other 3 … Continue reading Rapid Fire 3
