Ripped with HIIT: Lift It Hit It Legs
For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post. Lift It Hit It Legs is part of the Ripped with HIIT series program that focuses on contrast training. I really feel like you can see the benefit of contrast training in this workout more than in any of the others. It … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT: Lift It Hit It Legs
Ripped with HIIT
Ripped with HIIT is Cathe Friedrich's latest fitness program. Like Xtrain, it can be bought as a program (and you get all of the workout DVDs in a clamshell case) or each workout can be purchased individually. So I am reviewing this in basically the same way I did Xtrain. I will do the program … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT
Kitchen Sink Conditioning
I bought this workout DVD partially for the title alone. Kitchen Sink Conditioning. What an odd and somewhat humorous title! And since it is by Patrick Goudeau, it deserved further evaluation. I did more research and, just as it sounds, it is based on the idiom "everything but the kitchen sink"--as in, this workout uses … Continue reading Kitchen Sink Conditioning
Kettlebell Krush
Kettlebell Krush is a new workout by the kettlebell master Paul Katami. It is a tough and effective metabolic strength training workout. And only 40 minutes! He packs a lot into 40 minutes! I really enjoyed both of Paul's new workouts; this one and H.I.5. Both are short but intense and so varied that they are … Continue reading Kettlebell Krush
30 Minutes to Fitness: Athletic Conditioning
Kelly Coffey-Meyer recently came out with two new workouts: Athletic Conditioning and Slim Sculpting. They are both part of her 30 Minutes to Fitness series, but the one I am reviewing here appears to be launching a new series within a series. It is subtitled "Young Adult Series" and the title Athletic Conditioning is actually Volume … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Athletic Conditioning
Bodyweight Dance Conditioning (BodyFit 360 Vol 2)
I honestly did not expect to enjoy this workout as much as I did! I adore Michelle Dozois's new BodyFit 360 series! I have no rhythm and two left feet, so I was certain any workout with the word "dance" in it would end up being shelved after one try. But try it I did … Continue reading Bodyweight Dance Conditioning (BodyFit 360 Vol 2)
Turn Up and Slim Down
Turn Up and Slim Down is Patrick Goudeau's latest workout DVD. It is a cardio and body weight strength training workout broken down into 10 minute segments. So you can do all 6 segments + warm up and cool down for a 69 minute workout or pick and choose to create the workout of your … Continue reading Turn Up and Slim Down
H.I.5 (High Intensity 5)
HI 5 is Paul Katami's new workout. I actually have a lot of Paul's workouts on my wishlist, but for some reason I haven't purchased them yet. This one caught my eye, as did his other new one Kettlebell Krush. So I splurged and bought them both. HI 5 is an intense metabolic weight training … Continue reading H.I.5 (High Intensity 5)
Bodyweight Athletic Conditioning (BodyFit 360 Vol 3)
Bodyweight Athletic Conditioning is Volume 3 in Michelle Dozois's new BodyFit 360 series and it is a toughie! Athletic Conditioning is very different from BodyFit 360 Volume 1. Very athletic and much more cardio, whereas Volume 1 was very PiYo-like. Now, don't get me wrong, these body weight workouts (PiYo and BodyFit 360 Vol 1) … Continue reading Bodyweight Athletic Conditioning (BodyFit 360 Vol 3)
