HIIT Step/Bicep Weight Circuits

HIIT Step/Bicep Weight Circuits is an intense cardio + strength workout. Because it is one of Yvette's long workouts (71:30 minutes) this can be shortened into an approx. hour long cardio only workout. The first 52 minutes (including the warm up) is all interval cardio. When Yvette has you add risers to your step, stop … Continue reading HIIT Step/Bicep Weight Circuits

Cardio/Kettlebell Mash Up

Cardio/Kettlebell Mash Up is an interval workout that alternates kettlebell exercises with cardio exercises. The workout ends with some lower body and core work using the stability ball. Since kettlebell work is very metabolic anyway, this is non-stop cardio. Yet another workout from Yvette Bachman that I absolutely love. It is more of a moderate … Continue reading Cardio/Kettlebell Mash Up

Bootcamp/Bodyweight HIIT Workout

Bootcamp/Bodyweight HIIT workout is yet another awesome workout from Yvette Bachman. I loved this one! I know, I say that about all of Yvette's workouts but there are different levels of love and this one is up there in the top levels. Just like all of her workouts, this was intense, however, it was slightly … Continue reading Bootcamp/Bodyweight HIIT Workout

Fat Burning Cardio/Core Mashup

Fat Burning Cardio/Core Mashup is a fun and intense workout that alternates core work with cardio intervals and you use lots of equipment. About 40 minutes into the workout you get a short water break and when you return, you also add in some shoulder strength work, in addition to the cardio and core work. … Continue reading Fat Burning Cardio/Core Mashup

All Out Cardio Step/Kickboxing

All Out Cardio Step/Kickboxing is an intense (and long!) all cardio workout. Instead of reserving this for a weekend, I just got out of bed 10 minutes earlier this morning. There is no strength work in this workout and the majority of the workout is not done interval style (Yvette's workouts are usually done interval … Continue reading All Out Cardio Step/Kickboxing

Chest/Triceps Cardio Circuit

Chest/Triceps Cardio Circuit is a cardio + strength circuit workout that alternates chest or tricep strength exercises with cardio bursts. Cardio + strength workouts are my absolute favorite types of workouts and Yvette Bachman continues to deliver some of the best I have ever done. Between yesterday's workout (Step Cardio with Legs/Shoulders and Back) and … Continue reading Chest/Triceps Cardio Circuit

Step Cardio with Legs/Shoulders and Back

Step Cardio with Legs/Shoulders and Back is another excellent cardio + strength workout from Yvette Bachman. Though "back" is in the title, it didn't get a lot of work--at least compared to the work that legs and shoulders received. But it does get some work. I really enjoyed this workout. It is fun like all … Continue reading Step Cardio with Legs/Shoulders and Back

HIIT/Heavy Weights/Stability Ball

HIIT/Heavy Weights/Stability Ball is another one of Yvette Bachman's long but excellent workouts. But luckily it has two distinct parts so it is easy to cut this down to approximately an hour in length. It is primarily strength + cardio but there is also a good bit of stability ball cardio/core/hamstring work at the end. … Continue reading HIIT/Heavy Weights/Stability Ball

HIIT, Step, Heavy Leg (& Bicep) Work

The title of this workout is actually HIIT, Step, Heavy Leg Work but I added the word bicep because you get as much bicep work as you do leg work. And I wouldn't classify the leg work as heavy though the bicep work is. This is one of Yvette Bachman's longer workouts--76 minutes! But like … Continue reading HIIT, Step, Heavy Leg (& Bicep) Work
