Medicine Ball HIIT Workout

Medicine Ball HIIT Workout is another excellent and fun workout by trainer Yvette Backman. For the majority of the workout you use a medicine ball for everything--you never put it down. I love workouts that let me use all the equipment I accumulate but don't use that frequently and this gave me the opportunity to use … Continue reading Medicine Ball HIIT Workout

Cardio HIIT/Bicep/Back/Core Circuits

Cardio HIIT/Bicep/Back/Core Circuits is another awesome workout from Yvette Bachman. I have worked every other muscle group this week except back. I had a different back workout scheduled for today but I love Yvette's workouts so much that when I saw this workout had "back" in the title I did a swap. It didn't give … Continue reading Cardio HIIT/Bicep/Back/Core Circuits

Legs (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio

Leg (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio was an incredible workout. I loved it! This is the second workout I've done by Yvette Bachman and it feels like I am rediscovering Cathe (and Cathe Live) for the first time. I am not implying that she creates Cathe-like workouts. Yvette's workouts are her own creation … Continue reading Legs (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio

JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Bootcamp Boogie

Cardio Bootcamp Boogie is an intense and fun little cardio workout from Jessica Smith. It isn't what I have come to expect from a workout with "bootcamp" in the title. Bootcamp workouts usually combine strength and cardio in timed intervals. This is just straight cardio. I suppose it is done in intervals but they didn't … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Bootcamp Boogie

Cardio Kickbox/Bootcamp

Wow! What a workout! A reader recommended this trainer to me: Yvette Bachman. She owns a studio in Iowa and teaches fitness classes. About 3 months ago she started posting full length workouts. So I had a look and was immediately impressed. I could tell right away that I would really like her workouts but, … Continue reading Cardio Kickbox/Bootcamp

JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Core Flow

Cardio Core Flow is a low impact cardio workout that uses no equipment. It isn't super intense but I worked up a sweat and I did enjoy it. It is a solid steady state cardio workout. Since there is no impact, part of the intensity comes from using large/broad arm movements and lots of torso … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Core Flow

Fit Body by Julia: No Equipment Crazy Cardio

No Equipment Crazy Cardio is a workout from Fit Body by Julia, a YouTube workout channel. Now that I have scheduled so many of Julia's workouts over the next month I have noticed that, though she performs all of the workouts, many of them are created by other people and she always gives credit to … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: No Equipment Crazy Cardio

Barlates: Interval Barre Fusion Lower

Interval Barre Fusion is actually a 3 DVD series but the only DVD I purchased is the one for the lower body (there is also an upper body DVD and a core DVD). They all contain three 25 minute workouts. Lower Body also has a warm and stretch (the other two probably do, too, but … Continue reading Barlates: Interval Barre Fusion Lower
