I bought this workout DVD partially for the title alone. Kitchen Sink Conditioning. What an odd and somewhat humorous title! And since it is by Patrick Goudeau, it deserved further evaluation. I did more research and, just as it sounds, it is based on the idiom "everything but the kitchen sink"--as in, this workout uses … Continue reading Kitchen Sink Conditioning

Play Ball
I really wanted to love this workout by Patrick Goudeau. Play Ball is described as a "30-minute total body blast [that] is jam-packed with fun" and all you need is a medicine ball. Well, I have 3 medicine balls--2 eight pounders and 1 four pounder that don't get enough play. And the fact that it is … Continue reading Play Ball
Rapid Fire 2: Results
I now own all 4 of Susan Chung's Rapid Fire workouts and I love them all so much, I can't decide which is my favorite! Rapid Fire 2: Results is just as awesome as the other 3! Part of me thinks I like this one best, but I think that every time I do one … Continue reading Rapid Fire 2: Results
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
Cathe’s Core Max
Core Max is part of Cathe’s Hardcore series. It is a multi-workout DVD and contains 3 core workouts.

Cathe’s Terminator
The Terminator DVD is another of Cathe’s compilation DVDs. It contains 3 long workouts that are created by combining segments from 4 existing workouts from her Intensity Series: Imax 2, Cardio & Weights, Muscle Endurance and Bootcamp. So they are all basically long premixes--and they are tough. Premixes on crack. I’ll give a brief summary … Continue reading Cathe’s Terminator
Cathe’s Muscle Endurance
Just like Bootcamp, I am updating and rewriting the Muscle Endurance review. It was the second review I wrote for this blog (posted 4/20/12) and like I mentioned in the new Bootcamp review, I knew what I wanted, but I clearly hadn’t achieved it in those two reviews. However, I am leaving them up--so if … Continue reading Cathe’s Muscle Endurance
Cathe’s Bootcamp
Bootcamp was the first workout I reviewed when I created this blog. I knew what I wanted this blog to contain, but until 4/17/12 I had done everything on paper. So it took some practice before the reviews look the way they do now. So I decided that Bootcamp and Muscle Endurance deserve to be … Continue reading Cathe’s Bootcamp
Cathe’s Circuit Blast
**Note--this review was written in stages--so it is created and formatted a little differently than previous reviews due to things I've learned along the way.Circuit Blast is a rather unusual workout by Cathe. Initially, I was unsure how to categorize it; cardio or cardio + strength? It was created as part of the Shock Cardio … Continue reading Cathe’s Circuit Blast
