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.

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
