Express 30 Minute Full Body Workout is another excellent Physique 57 workout. I wasn't expecting this one to hit my lower body as hard as Thigh & Seat Booster, but it did! It fried my lower body! It isn't really the total body workout it claims to be tho. It does hit your core nicely … Continue reading Physique 57: Express 30 Minute Full Body Workout

Physique 57: Thigh & Seat Booster
I really wanted to try Physique 57 workouts after doing Xtend Barre: Lean & Chiseled because it was recommended to me as being similar. I loved Xtend Barre and was very disappointed to discover there were no more by the trainer and that it wasn't a series. I was disappointed that my public library did … Continue reading Physique 57: Thigh & Seat Booster
Precision Toning
I decided to try one more of Tracy Anderson's offerings (for now). I have zero interest in her cardio workouts, but the reviews for this collection stated it is the most focused of all of her workouts. She actually keeps track of how many reps you do and you do the same amount of reps … Continue reading Precision Toning
Exhale: Core Fusion Barre Basics
The full title of this workout is Exhale Core Fusion Barre Basics for Beginners. I chose this workout because, in spite of the word "beginner" in the title, it got some impressive reviews. One in particular swayed me. She posted the review in May of 2013 then updated it in August of 2013. She had … Continue reading Exhale: Core Fusion Barre Basics
Burn at the Barre
Burn at the Barre is the final workout I scheduled for my barre week. However, it is not the last! I enjoyed these workouts so much that I checked out two more from the library today but I am not sure when I will get to those. Burn at the Barre is a total body … Continue reading Burn at the Barre
Xtend Barre: Lean & Chiseled
I love this workout! Of all of the barre workouts I’ve done so far this week, Xtend Barre: Lean & Chiseled is my favorite. It is an excellent total body workout that is so fast-paced you get some cardio, too. I did not find any of the moves too fast to do with good form … Continue reading Xtend Barre: Lean & Chiseled
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
The Tracy Anderson Method: Mat Workout
The Tracy Anderson Method: Mat Workout is the second workout I have done by Tracy Anderson. And this one is different from The Perfect Design. Just like with Perfect Design I have a lot to say about this workout. I actually like it more than Perfect Design. Mat Workout is a total body workout (though … Continue reading The Tracy Anderson Method: Mat Workout
The Perfect Design: Level II Intermediate
I have read a lot about Tracy Anderson over the past year and none of it has been good. I don’t mean I haven’t read reviews by people who love her workouts. I have; but it seems you either love her or hate her. There are some strong feelings associated with this trainer. Plus, it … Continue reading The Perfect Design: Level II Intermediate
Figure 30: Hips
Figure 30: Hips was purchased in my attempt to take better care of myself. Yes, I exercise every day and push myself hard, but sometimes I think that is a problem--I am focused on the wrong things. It's not all about how heavy I can deadlift and how high I can tuck jump--there is also … Continue reading Figure 30: Hips
