…so I do it at home
Bodyweight Training is another little collection by Mark Lauren. After doing (and loving) EFX, YAYOG and Mobility RX, I couldn't resist. This one, however, appears to only be featured on Amazon. Mark's website doesn't mention it or offer it. A little odd. But that didn't stop me from buying it! These workouts are based on his … Continue reading Bodyweight Training
Killer Body is Jillian Michael's latest offering. As usual she has given us multiple challenging workouts on one DVD for a great price. This collection is a little different than her usual offerings and I really like it. Usually her workouts are total body, or core focused but this collection is giving you splits, which … Continue reading Killer Body
The long awaited (for me at least) Insanity: Max 30 has arrived. I am a big Shaun T fan. I have Insanity and Asylum 1 (review of Asylum should go up in March--at least that is my current plan) but that is all. I didn't want to get Asylum 2 until I did Asylum 1 … Continue reading Insanity: Max 30
After doing Mark Lauren's EFX and reading his books (You Are Your Own Gym and Body By You), I had to get the rest of his DVDs. This series/program is based on his book with the same title: You Are Your Own Gym or YAYOG for short (he also has an app based on his … Continue reading You Are Your Own Gym (YAYOG)
Mobility RX is Mark Lauren's newest body weight training workout. The tag for it is "Dynamic flexibility. Postural strength. Move with ease. Live pain free." What does that mean for these workouts? First, they are different from his others that I have done, but no less challenging. I would equate them to painful physical therapy. The exercises … Continue reading Mobility RX

If you get the Ultimate Warrior bonus workouts (which I … Continue reading Les Mills Combat
For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post. (Also, these reviews are being posted out of order--this was the first workout I did after receiving the series, but it is the last one that will post--that is why they read a little "off.") It arrived! It finally arrived! Cathe's new series/program … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT: HIIT Upper Body Circuit
For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post. Had I come to this workout by itself, without having purchased and done other Ripped with HIIT workouts as part of a rotation, I might have been a bit disappointed in this workout, primarily because it has the word "HIIT" in the … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT: Low Impact HIIT
For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post. OMG. O.M.G. I know I have already mentioned it in other reviews, but Cathe has really outdone herself with this new series/program. HIIT Lower Body Circuit is incredibly intense and advanced. It kicked my butt! This workout alternates lower body strength work with very … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT: HIIT Lower Body Circuit
For more information on Cathe's Ripped with HIIT program see the overview post. Plyo HIIT contains two HIIT workouts and holy cow--Cathe has really kicked it up a notch! These were super tough and super intense! I always expect intensity with Cathe, but wow! I am on my first week of my Ripped with HIIT … Continue reading Ripped with HIIT: Plyo HIIT
