Until today. And having now done it--I should have gotten to it sooner! Excellent workout! PHA … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: PHAT Workout

Freestyle Training: Back/Shoulders/Butt
Michele Lumadue is a new-to-me trainer who was recommended to me by a reader. I perused her workouts and at first was resistant due to the length of them (most are well over an hour long--pushing 2 hours--and many are over 2 hours long!). I do not have that kind of time in the mornings … Continue reading Freestyle Training: Back/Shoulders/Butt

Cardio Madness is a Fit Body by Julia workout. This is my 4th workout by Julia. It was actually created by someone named Daniela but, of course, it was performed by Julia.

Legs (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio
Leg (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio was an incredible workout. I loved it! This is the second workout I've done by Yvette Bachman and it feels like I am rediscovering Cathe (and Cathe Live) for the first time. I am not implying that she creates Cathe-like workouts. Yvette's workouts are her own creation … Continue reading Legs (& Chest) Day w/ Step & Cardio
