Body Fusion is a total body cardio + strength circuit workout that alternates step combos with weight work. The bonus add … Continue reading Body Fusion

2-Week Turn Around: Cardio
Before my mastectomy I dug out some of the workouts I used while rehabilitating after my heels were crushed 10 years ago. The 2-Week Turn Around workouts were part of my rehab. There are two DVDs--a cardio and a strength DVD. Both DVDs contain multiple short workouts that you can do alone or put them … Continue reading 2-Week Turn Around: Cardio
Element: Yoga for Energy & Relaxation
I am a big fan of Ashley Turner's Element yoga workouts. A blog reader recommended Tamal Dodge's Element yoga workouts, saying they were even better than Ashley's. So I looked them over and stuck two of Tamal's Element DVDs on my Amazon wishlist. I finally got around to trying one and I am so glad … Continue reading Element: Yoga for Energy & Relaxation
Low Impact Step + Total Body Sculpting
After doing the two easy Cathe workouts I've had laying around for years (Basic Step and High Step Circuit) I decided to buy her other beginner level workouts that I'd seen but not bothered with. Cathe doesn't have a ton of beginner level workouts but she does have a few and now I own all … Continue reading Low Impact Step + Total Body Sculpting
Beginner’s Weight Loss Transformation
I bought Bob's Beginner's Weight Loss Transformation a long time ago--before I even started this blog. I was not a beginning exerciser back then but I was in the process of hoarding Bob Harper's workouts. I read the reviews of this workout and the consensus was that it was not a beginner workout. Bob's workouts are very … Continue reading Beginner’s Weight Loss Transformation
Walk On: Walk Off Belly Fat
Walk Off Belly Fat is part of Jessica Smith's Walk On series. On this DVD, Jessica has 3 workouts plus a warm up and a cool down. You can do everything individually or Jessica has a premix menu that combines some of the workouts and lists them by Days (Day 1-5) so you have your workout … Continue reading Walk On: Walk Off Belly Fat
Barlates: Bodyweight Basics Lower
I thought, by the title (Bodyweight Basics Lower), this might be more my speed. I don't have a problem with Linda's Beginner Interval workouts right now, but her Endurance 90 Lower killed me. I thought--maybe this will be easier than Endurance 90 Lower. And it probably is easier. But chemo is really tearing me down … Continue reading Barlates: Bodyweight Basics Lower
Cathe’s Basic Step
Just like High Step Circuit, when I purchased my club step this DVD was included. I am not an advanced stepper but normally I prefer very intense cardio. So, like High Step Circuit, this DVD was just collecting dust. But due to my new circumstances of needing easier workouts, I decided it was time to finally try … Continue reading Cathe’s Basic Step
High Step Circuit
I got this DVD years ago when I purchased my high step (square step)--it was included with the step. The DVD case says Level: Beginner/Intermediate and since I already own and love High Step Challenge and High Step Training, which are advanced workouts, I never bothered with it. Well, anyone who follows my blog knows … Continue reading High Step Circuit
The Perfect Design: Level I Beginner
I never intended to purchase The Perfect Design: Level I Beginner, but my world has changed so much in the past few months that I decided to give this one a try. I have already done The Perfect Design Level 2 & Level 3 and enjoyed the lower body portions of both. Now that I … Continue reading The Perfect Design: Level I Beginner
