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

Barlates: Beginner Intervals: Ramp It Up
Beginner Intervals: Ramp It Up is the fourth workout in Linda Wooldridge's Beginner Interval series. The other 3 workouts are Old School Aerobics, Compound Moves and Cardio Sculpt. I love all of these workouts but I think Old School Aerobics is still my favorite. Ramp It Up, as indicated by the title, is a bit … Continue reading Barlates: Beginner Intervals: Ramp It Up
Barlates: Long Lever Upper & Lower
This was an excellent total body barre workout using light weights. The only muscle group not touched is your back. Linda Wooldridge offers this workout free on YouTube. When the workout begins, the intro/title screen says "Glute Bridge on the Ball" but it is actually Long Lever Upper & Lower, as labeled--so don't worry! You … Continue reading Barlates: Long Lever Upper & Lower
Barlates: Beginner Intervals Compound Moves
Compound Moves is the other Beginner Intervals workout Linda Wooldridge created and posted to YouTube. Yesterday I did and reviewed Cardio Sculpt. Not an intense workout but lots of fun and I really enjoyed it. Same with this workout. Compound Moves is similar to Cardio Sculpt--the moves are different but it is a short (20 … Continue reading Barlates: Beginner Intervals Compound Moves

All Out Cardio Step/Kickboxing
All Out Cardio Step/Kickboxing is an intense (and long!) all cardio workout. Instead of reserving this for a weekend, I just got out of bed 10 minutes earlier this morning. There is no strength work in this workout and the majority of the workout is not done interval style (Yvette's workouts are usually done interval … Continue reading All Out Cardio Step/Kickboxing

And here is a page … Continue reading Walk Strong 3
BOSU/HIIT/Bodyweight–Calorie Burning Workout
Bosu/HIIT/Bodyweight is another excellent bosu/cardio workout from Yvette Bachman. Yvette's Youtube workouts are what prompted me to actually get a bosu ball and I am loving her workouts that use them. This one is an intense cardio workout with some body weight strength work. But it is primarily cardio. I love her bosu workouts. They … Continue reading BOSU/HIIT/Bodyweight–Calorie Burning Workout
Walk Strong: 6 Week Total Transformation System
Walk Strong is a fitness program by Jessica Smith. It has been on my wish list since I discovered her via her YouTube workouts. I had planned to get it with any Amazon gift cards I got for Christmas and my birthday (since I always get them) but then Groupon offered it for half the price … Continue reading Walk Strong: 6 Week Total Transformation System
BOSU Cardio Mashup
I was very excited to do Bosu Cardio Mashup. In fact, one of my Christmas presents this year was a bosu ball that I wanted primarily to do Yvette's bosu workouts. Since then I have found a lot more bosu workouts; workouts by Fit Body by Julia and Mindy Mylrea specifically, but some others on … Continue reading BOSU Cardio Mashup
