Kick Butt Kickboxing is a great cardio kickboxing workout. Definitely not the most intense kickboxing workout I've ever done, but it was fun and gave me a good workout. It is made up of punching and kicking drills (but no punch/kick drills) and some cardio bursts. I wore 2 pound weighted gloves to increase intensity. … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kick Butt Kickboxing

JessicaSmithTV: Leg Day
The name of this video is actually Legs, Butt, Hips & Thighs Workout but one of the first things Jessica says at the beginning of the workout is that it is Leg Day. Plus that is the first thing she writes in the workout description. I like the sound of that for a workout title, … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Leg Day
JessicaSmithTV: Weight Loss Cardio Sculpt
Weight Loss Cardio Sculpt isn't a cardio workout. Jessica says that the point of the title is to understand that cardio burns calories in the moment but building muscle burns calories all of the time. This is a metabolic circuit workout. With the right weights, this workout is intense enough to give you a cardio workout, too--that is … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Weight Loss Cardio Sculpt
JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion #1
I did Cardio Mat Fusion #2 before I did Cardio Mat Fusion #1--not on purpose. I just never realized there was a #1 until I was already doing #2. Though this is also a low impact, no equipment workout, I found it different from the second one in several ways. First, this one was more … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion #1

JessicaSmithTV: Total Body Chisel & Burn
Total Body Chisel & Burn is a short metabolic total body workout. And with the right weights it gets pretty intense. I really enjoyed this workout even though there was no Peanut. Though the exercises are done at a controlled pace, this is a circuit workout with very little rest between each exercise. And since the … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Total Body Chisel & Burn
JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Sculpt
Cardio Sculpt is not a cardio workout but a metabolic strength training workout. So it is a fast paced circuit workout where one exercises flows into the next with little to no rest. That is the cardio/metabolic factor. For only 20 minutes, this was a great little workout. I used it in combination w/ Jessica's … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Sculpt
JessicaSmithTV: Cardio + Strength Mash Up
Cardio + Strength Mash Up is only 10 minutes long; 3 minute warm up (the warm up previews first exercise but w/out weights) and 1 minute stretch. So the total actual training time is 6 minutes, not counting warm up and stretch (actually, even less since the last 30 seconds is Jessica talking, so 5:30 minute … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio + Strength Mash Up
JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up
HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up is an incredible workout from Jessica Smith that, as you can tell by the title, mashes a lot of different types of modalities into a single (long) workout. This workout was amazing! One of the best workouts I've ever done--and it is free for everyone on YouTube! Thank you … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: HIIT Strength Pilates Yoga Mash Up
JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet
Kickboxing Ballet is 29 minutes long; 45 second intro. The warm up is about 3 minutes and, since the workout starts with the ballet/barre portion of the workout--that is what the warm up consists of: gentle dynamic ballet type of moves. Then you go into some more aggressive (but not difficult) ballet/barre work, then you … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet
