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

Wow. This workout is crazy intense. Patrick Goudeau is another new-to-me trainer and that man is a machine! This is an advanced metabolic strength training + HIIT workout with no down time. None.

30 Minutes to Fitness: Bootcamp
Bootcamp is part of Kelly Coffey-Meyer's 30 Minutes to Fitness series that I have been obsessively collecting (yes, there are more 30 Minutes to Fitness reviews to come). Like Circuit Burn, I approached these workouts a little differently. Instead of doing the 30 minute workouts individually, the first time I did it, I did the premix that … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Bootcamp

I don't even know where to begin with all I love about her workouts and Shape Up is a perfect example of all of those reasons. First, I adore the 30 minute format. Shape Up is … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Shape Up
Killer Buns & Thighs
Killer Buns & Thighs is another excellent and tough workout collection from Jillian Michaels. This is one of the things I really love about Jillian Michaels; not only does she create effective and tough workouts, but she almost always puts several workouts on one DVD and offers them at an excellent price. So you are … Continue reading Killer Buns & Thighs
Chiseled
Chiseled is a tough cardio + strength/metabolic strength training workout from Toby Massenburg. It is advanced, but very doable for all fitness levels. This is my second workout by Toby and what I like is how in both of his workouts that I've done, he incorporates just the right amount of recovery so you can … Continue reading Chiseled
Tabata Bootcamp with Toys
Just look at the title of this workout DVD? How could I resist? Tabata with Toys? A whole DVD devoted to tabata? I had to have it! Mindy Mylrea is new to me, so I didn't know what to expect. (**I started working my way through this DVD before I did Intensity Overload; however because … Continue reading Tabata Bootcamp with Toys
Breathless Body 3: HIIT it Big!
I am a HUGE fan of Amy Dixon's HIIT workouts and HIIT workouts in general, so I snapped this one up as soon as I saw it. Before I go any further, I want to mention how I plan to review this workout. Since it is the 3rd in her Breathless Body series, I want … Continue reading Breathless Body 3: HIIT it Big!
