Wow! That title is no joke! This is the second Patrick Goudeau workout I've done (Kickbox Burn doesn't really count because it's really Heather Corndorf) and it is hard work. I own Hard Work Conditioning 1 but haven't done it yet, so I cannot compare at this time--but Hard Work Conditioning 2 earns its name! … Continue reading Hard Work Conditioning 2

Michelle Dozois’s Ultimate Workout
Michelle Dozois's Ultimate Workout is a pretty neat concept. In her intro, she states that many of the people who come to her gym are looking for one class that does it all—strength, cardio, core and flexibility and in minimal time. That is why she created this workout. If you do all three segments you get … Continue reading Michelle Dozois’s Ultimate Workout
Kickbox Burn
What a find! Kickbox Burn was recommended to me by a reader of this blog and wow, am I grateful! Patrick Goudeau is a new find for me (tho he has been around for a while) but this workout is a little different. He doesn't lead it. In fact, the top of the DVD says … Continue reading Kickbox Burn
Kettlebell Cardio Shred
Kettlebell Cardio Shred is part of Bob Harper’s Inside Out Method series and yet another excellent workout. I love kettlebell workouts but I think I love Bob Harper’s best. He doesn’t have that many—only two and a short 30 minute one that comes with his kettlebells but, as usual, Bob gives you an excellent workout. … Continue reading Kettlebell Cardio Shred
30 Minutes to Fitness: Your Best Body
I am at the end of my new-to-me Kelly Coffey-Meyer workouts (though I have her newest on pre-order) and it seems I have saved the best for last. Your Best Body is an incredible workout duo. In some ways it is similar to Weights (which I also love) but in other ways it is unique. … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Your Best Body
Extreme Burn: Total Body Interval Training
Mike Donavanik is another new-to-me trainer. In fact, with Mike, I am at the end of the new-to-me trainers that I have decided to try out. I bought this DVD months ago and am just now getting around to trying it. The thing that made me hold off was the lengths of the workouts. There … Continue reading Extreme Burn: Total Body Interval Training
30 Minutes to Fitness: Trim Down
I absolutely adore this workout by Kelly Coffey-Meyer. Trim Down is part of her 30 Minutes to Fitness series, so it contains two 30 minute cardio + strength workouts that are tough but fun. Kelly alternates boxing combos with compound strength moves and really works you hard, giving you two total body workouts. Your heart … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Trim Down
30 Minutes to Fitness: LIFT
Wow. That is all I can say. Wow. If you are looking for something different, for something to really challenge you in a new way, LIFT is the workout for you. As it is part of Kelly Coffey-Meyer's 30 Minutes to Fitness series, there are two workouts on this DVD. Though they are both excellent and challenging, … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: LIFT
Pure Burn Super Strength
Pure Burn Super Strength is part of Bob Harper's Inside Out Method series and it is an awesome and advanced total body strength workout. It is endurance metabolic strength work--lots of reps and there is definitely some cardio. I haven't done this workout in years but I do remember when I did it how exhausting … Continue reading Pure Burn Super Strength
One Week Shred
Jillian Michael's One Week Shred is her newest workout collection and it is tough. The concept behind One Week Shred is if you need a "crash" weight loss plan for some upcoming event--this DVD provides the workouts and the diet plan to get ready for it. There are two workouts. An AM Strength workout that is … Continue reading One Week Shred
