Rippedism

Rippedism is an online only, streamed workout program. The program has 3 phases and lasts 60 days total; so the phases (called "Tiers") are each 20 days long. There are 17 workouts in the actual program. 16 of them are approximately 35 minutes long and one of them is an 11 minute abdominal workout. There is also an "Intro/Bonus" workout … Continue reading Rippedism

10 Minute Body Transformation, 2nd Edition

A second edition! I was very excited when I saw this. I love Jillian's first 10 Minute Body Transformation. It was very well done and it is one of her workouts I return to more frequently than her others. Since it is set up in approximately 10 minute segments, it's perfect to use as an … Continue reading 10 Minute Body Transformation, 2nd Edition

Cathe Live: Body Works

Body Works is an interesting Cathe Live workout. I did like it, but I have noticed something about the most recent Live workouts I've been doing. They are not terribly intense. They seem to be more intermediate level workouts. I do enjoy them and I am still getting good workouts but I don't feel like … Continue reading Cathe Live: Body Works

Cathe Live: Rock Body Boot Camp

Another bootcamp workout from Cathe Live! I really enjoyed this workout but it definitely was not her most intense. I did use it for a metabolic cardio day workout but even the cardio/metabolic aspect wasn't super intense. But it was still a good workout and worked well for a Sunday when I normally try to … Continue reading Cathe Live: Rock Body Boot Camp

Cathe Live: Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core

Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core is another fun, effective and excellent workout that is unique to Cathe Live. You get it all in this workout: cardio, barre, core and total body strength training. Now, I will say it isn't the most thorough strength training workout and, because of the brisk pace, you cannot lift … Continue reading Cathe Live: Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core

Cathe Live: Body Blast Boot Camp

Body Blast Boot Camp appears to be based on the Strong & Sweaty series Boot Camp workout. That is an excellent bootcamp workout and so is this one. It is intense and fun. I like to use these bootcamp workouts more as metabolic cardio workouts rather than strength training, so I used the same weight … Continue reading Cathe Live: Body Blast Boot Camp

Cathe Live: Keep the Cardio Coming

Keep the Cardio Coming is an intense all cardio workout. And for a Cathe Live cardio workout, it is long. It is even long for Cathe's more current DVD cardio workouts! Cathe used to do lots of hour long DVD cardio workouts (some even longer than an hour--Maximum Intensity Cardio), but those days are over unless … Continue reading Cathe Live: Keep the Cardio Coming

Svelte U: Workout Two

Workout Two is the second of the Svelte U workouts created by Tracey Mallett. Like Svelte U: Workout One, there are actually three 20 minute workouts on this DVD. So if you purchase Workout One and Workout Two you would get six 20 minute workouts that actually work very nicely together. I did all 3 … Continue reading Svelte U: Workout Two

MetaShred Extreme

Since I loved B.J. Gaddour's MetaShred 21, I was very excited when he announced the next level--MetaShred Extreme. My husband pre-ordered it for me as a birthday gift. I had already impulse purchased B.J.'s DeltFit Speed Shred and that has been sitting on my shelf for several months. The original plan was to do DeltaFit first, … Continue reading MetaShred Extreme

Ignite by Spri 900 Calorie Burn

900 Calorie Burn is another workout from Ignite by Spri. This one is led by celebrity trainer Ashley Borden. Her little bio on the back of the DVD states she has trained Ryan Gosling and Christina Aquilera. I went to her website and she has also trained 9x UFC Champion Matt Hughes and many others. Impressive. I almost … Continue reading Ignite by Spri 900 Calorie Burn
