Rockout Knockout

Rockout Knockout is another of Cathe's new workouts and I love it! This one is a kickbox-style workout and it is a lot of fun. I haven't done all 9 of Cathe's new workouts yet (though I bought them all), but I have done 3 of them and, so far, none of them are advanced level. … Continue reading Rockout Knockout

10 Minute Solution: High Intensity Interval Training

10 Minute Solution has moved into the HIIT arena with their High Intensity Interval Training. Believe it or not I own a ton of these DVDs.

Bob Harper’s Ultimate Cardio Body

Ultimate Cardio Body by Bob Harper is another intense metabolic weight training workout. Bob does make an effort to hit every muscle group so it can also be viewed as a full body cardio + strength workout. What can I say about this workout except it is another super tough Bob Harper torture session. He … Continue reading Bob Harper’s Ultimate Cardio Body

ACE HIIT Series

ACE HIIT Series workouts are led by Chris Freytag. I have a few workouts by Chris and I really like them but I never do them anymore. They are more intermediate workouts and, well, I am an advanced exerciser now. However, when I was a more intermediate exerciser, I found them to be solid workouts. … Continue reading ACE HIIT Series

Total Body Transformation

Bob Harper’s Total Body Transformation is a cardio + strength workout. It is primarily metabolic weight training but it gives your shoulders and your lower body some serious work. This DVD contains two workouts. The full 60 minute workout and a short 14 minute workout. Both are brutal. The problem, however, is that Bob continuously … Continue reading Total Body Transformation

Bob’s Workout

"Bob's Workout" is part of Bob Harper's Inside Out Method workouts and to take it a step further, according to Bob, these are the workouts he does when he works out. I am assuming that they were the workouts that he did in 2010--but now, he is a crossfit junkie and he probably does much … Continue reading Bob’s Workout
