GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (26 Minutes)

I added the (26 minutes) to the title because GymRa has a second workout with the exact same title and exact same trainer (Raneir Pollard)--except it's 25 minutes. I will be doing and reviewing that one here also, so they need something to set them apart. With the right weights, this is a short but … Continue reading GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (26 Minutes)

JessicaSmithTV: 20 Minute Fat Burning Cardio Workout

In the intro to this workout Jessica says this workout is part of the "healthy for the holidays challenge" and the idea is "something is always better than nothing." So, even tho this is only 20 minutes of cardio, at least your doing something. Neat little idea. And for 20 minutes, this is another great … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: 20 Minute Fat Burning Cardio Workout

Barlates: Mix and Match HIIT

Mix and Match HIIT is another very cool workout collection from Linda Wooldridge. It is made up of five 10 minute, very intense segments. And it is extremely varied. It has a little of everything I've come to love from Linda's Barlates workouts--cardio, barre, kettlebell work, some barre-kickboxing, body weight strength mat work and it … Continue reading Barlates: Mix and Match HIIT

JessicaSmithTV: 30 Minute H.I.I.T.

Jessica Smith's 30 Minute H.I.I.T. is an excellent workout that I (of course) love, but it's not really a HIIT workout. It is an interval workout and I loved it, but I didn't find it HIIT level intense. I have the day off today (4 day weekend) so I got to do a longer morning … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: 30 Minute H.I.I.T.

Gliding Extreme

Just as the title implies this is an extreme workout. It is advanced and it is tough. BTW--I loved it. Excellent, excellent workout from Mindy Mylrea. Gliding Extreme is set outside in a meadow. There is a large round platform set in the grass and Mindy does all of her sliding on this platform. It's just Mindy--no … Continue reading Gliding Extreme

Total Body Double G Workout

Finally! Another Mindy Mylrea workout I enjoyed! I was disappointed in her last two that I tried and was starting to worry. This is another of the many Mindy workouts I got at her $3.99 sale. The big draw of that sale for me was her medicine ball and gliding disk workouts and, since this one combined … Continue reading Total Body Double G Workout

Barlates: Resista-Barre Total Body Workout

Resista-Barre is a collection of cardio and toning segments created by Linda Wooldridge. All of the segments can be done together for a 95 minute total body workout or you can pick and choose from the chapter menu or do one of the 4 premixes. Every segment on this DVD uses either a resistance loop … Continue reading Barlates: Resista-Barre Total Body Workout

Awesome Intervals

Awesome Intervals is another workout DVD that I got at Mindy Mylrea's $3.99 sale and it was another disappointment. During the warm up I nearly turned the thing off and stuck in Cathe's Cross Fire (always my go-to workout if another workout doesn't work out for me). The step choreography for the warm up was immediately … Continue reading Awesome Intervals

Med Ball Madness

Med Ball Madness is one of the many workouts I bought at Mindy Mylrea's one day $3.99 sale. And I am glad I didn't pay more for it. I was not impressed with this one. Which really disappointed me. I bought quite a few of her workouts that use a medicine ball at her sale … Continue reading Med Ball Madness

JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Mash Up

HIIT Mash Up is a 61 minute workout from Jessica Smith--and it is free on YouTube. Though this workout is intense and worked me hard, I don't know that it deserves "HIIT" in the title. My heart rate never peaked but it did get my heart rate up into the cardio zone and kept it … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Mash Up
