Metabolic Total Body is an excellent metabolic strength training workout. It is part of Cathe's ICE fitness program (Intermediate Conditioning Extreme). Like Low Impact Sweat, I didn't find this workout as easy as I expected. The "intermediate" is deceiving. However, I did automatically lift heavier than Cathe on every single exercise. That is one of the aspects … Continue reading ICE: Metabolic Total Body

Cathe Live: Cardio Mish Mosh
Cathe's Live Cardio Mish Mosh is a very cool cardio workout that I know I will return to frequently. It is comparable to Crossfire and To the Max--but only in diversity and intensity. The best way to describe this workout is to think of every single cardio/HIIT/plyo move Cathe does in her vast library of … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Mish Mosh
Peak Fit System
***Update 4/14/16--Michelle Dozois posted an excellent blog post today about home workouts vs gym workouts. In it she talked about her Peak 10 workouts and Peak Fit system. Also, at the very end of the blog post she states that there will be a new Peak 10 system coming out later this year. I am … Continue reading Peak Fit System
Pretty Fierce: Lean Out
**Note: since I am doing two related systems together the first few paragraphs in both reviews are similar. Pretty Fierce: Lean Out is the other fitness program I purchased by new-to-me trainer Lindsay Brin. She has a DVD series titled MIF/Mom's Into Fitness. I bought two of her programs, Pretty Fierce: Weight Loss and this one because … Continue reading Pretty Fierce: Lean Out
Edge Booty Extreme 2
I discovered this workout system from Oxygen Magazine--they sent me a sales email. I was immediately intrigued. I am getting ready to start another round of STS in September and I am planning on adding additional glute focus. I have already tried The Butt Bible for that purpose and loved it, so I decided I … Continue reading Edge Booty Extreme 2
Ultimatum
I cannot even remember how I came across Ultimatum but it has been on my Amazon Wishlist for a very long time. It is expensive. The trainer is Lindsi Sanor and she created an intense metabolic weight training fitness program along the lines of Michelle Dozois's Peak 10 Cardio Strength workouts--except shorter. So I was definitely … Continue reading Ultimatum
10 Minute Torchers
10 Minute Torchers was discovered completely by accident. First, I came across a forum post about a Men's Health workout series called The Anarchy Workout. I was curious so I did some research on it. When I decided to spring for it, I was offered 10 Minute Torchers at the checkout. So, of course, before … Continue reading 10 Minute Torchers
Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn
Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn--that title is a mouthful. I want to start this review by saying I am a big fan of Michelle Dozois and her Peak 10 workouts. But I do not like this one. I actually pre-ordered it and Fat Blaster Cardio Strength when they first came out months ago … Continue reading Peak 10 Fat Blaster Cardio Interval Burn
Jillian Michaels BodyShred
I have been very impatiently awaiting Jillian's BodyShred program! And now that I own it, I look at it with some trepidation. The trailer for it looks scary hard. But I am up for the challenge! BodyShred is the next step after Body Revolution. Body Revolution had 3 stages--beginner, intermediate and advanced. And the advanced … Continue reading Jillian Michaels BodyShred
Breathless Body 4: Going Strong
Going Strong is the newest high intensity workout from Amy Dixon in her Breathless Body series and I love it! I love all of her Breathless Body workouts but this is my absolute favorite. However, it deviates from the first 3 a lot. In fact, it is more along the lines of Patrick Goudeau's awesome … Continue reading Breathless Body 4: Going Strong
