6 Week Six Pack

Though I own just about everything else fitness-wise Jillian Michaels has put out there, I have resisted her core workouts. The main reason being I am not a fan of long ab workouts. I like to keep my ab work to 10 minutes or less at the end of a workout, or incorporated somehow throughout … Continue reading 6 Week Six Pack

Cathe Live: Vertical Loading

The name "vertical loading" is from an article in Cathe's blog that came out the same week as this workout aired live.

Cardio Boxing + Plyo Legs is a great little cardio workout. I really enjoyed it. It starts out with cardio boxing.

After the warm up it goes into Cathe's familiar boxing drills/combos alternated with more intense cardio blasts. The … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Boxing + Plyo Legs

PopPhysique: Original Butt

I had never heard of PopPhysique before but Popsugar/Anna Renderer had PopPhysique trainer Sam Harper as a guest trainer and I really enjoyed her 10 minute Leg & Butt workout, so I looked PopPhysique up on Amazon. There were two workouts with "butt" in the title that were cheap if purchased used. The covers of … Continue reading PopPhysique: Original Butt

Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio Leg Blast + Ball Upper Body

This was an excellent and unique total body cardio + strength workout. Cathe does a lot of cardio + strength workouts that focus on the lower body and they are always high impact, so I was very interested when I saw that the cardio blasts in this workout were low impact. Bonus! You get it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio Leg Blast + Ball Upper Body

Focus T25

I have been on the fence about this program for a long time. I couldn't decide from the information and trailer that Beachbody provided whether I really wanted this program or not. That didn't stop me from following (and bidding) on it on Ebay many times over the past few years. I always lost the … Continue reading Focus T25
