30 Minutes to Fitness: Shape Up

I LOVE this workout! This is the third workout I have done by Kelly Coffey-Meyer and yet another winner! I don't even know where to begin with all I love about her workouts and Shape Up is a perfect example of all of those reasons. First, I adore the 30 minute format. Shape Up is … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Shape Up

Killer Buns & Thighs

Killer Buns & Thighs is another excellent and tough workout collection from Jillian Michaels. This is one of the things I really love about Jillian Michaels; not only does she create effective and tough workouts, but she almost always puts several workouts on one DVD and offers them at an excellent price. So you are … Continue reading Killer Buns & Thighs

Extreme Shed & Shred

Extreme Shed & Shred is probably my favorite Jillian Michael's workout. I've had it for a long time but I haven't done it in a while. It contains two metabolic strength training workouts--Level 1 and Level 2. I love them both; however, the only one that might justify the title "Extreme" is Level 2. But … Continue reading Extreme Shed & Shred

Kettlebody By Brook

Kettlebody by Brook is a collection of 3 workouts created by Brook Benten. It is actually a very cool little fitness program. In her intro to the workouts, she gives you a rotation schedule to follow: Cardio on Monday, Yoga on Tuesday and Toning on Wednesday. Repeat for a total of 6 days, take a … Continue reading Kettlebody By Brook

Intensity Overload: No Equipment Required

Mindy Mylrea is another of the many new-to-me trainers I am sampling. Thus far I have been extremely happy with the new trainers and I really like Mindy, too--but I am not completely thrilled with this DVD. I actually got two workouts by Mindy--this one and Tabata with Toys. I am loving Tabata with Toys, … Continue reading Intensity Overload: No Equipment Required

A.S.A.P Hollywood Bootcamp 4×4

Paul Katami is a slave driver! I was so impressed with his Burn & Build I decided I needed to sample more of his offerings. So A.S.A.P Hollywood Bootcamp 4x4 was the next one I chose. WOW. Another super tough metabolic weight training workout. I especially needed something like this today--the day after Thanksgiving when … Continue reading A.S.A.P Hollywood Bootcamp 4×4

10 Minute Solution: High Intensity Interval Training

10 Minute Solution has moved into the HIIT arena with their High Intensity Interval Training. Believe it or not I own a ton of these DVDs. I don't know how many will ever be reviewed on this blog but I do own them and have no intention of getting rid of them. Before I get … Continue reading 10 Minute Solution: High Intensity Interval Training

Bob Harper’s Ultimate Cardio Body

Ultimate Cardio Body by Bob Harper is another intense metabolic weight training workout. Bob does make an effort to hit every muscle group so it can also be viewed as a full body cardio + strength workout. What can I say about this workout except it is another super tough Bob Harper torture session. He … Continue reading Bob Harper’s Ultimate Cardio Body

ACE HIIT Series

ACE HIIT Series workouts are led by Chris Freytag. I have a few workouts by Chris and I really like them but I never do them anymore. They are more intermediate workouts and, well, I am an advanced exerciser now. However, when I was a more intermediate exerciser, I found them to be solid workouts. … Continue reading ACE HIIT Series

Bob’s Workout

"Bob's Workout" is part of Bob Harper's Inside Out Method workouts and to take it a step further, according to Bob, these are the workouts he does when he works out. I am assuming that they were the workouts that he did in 2010--but now, he is a crossfit junkie and he probably does much … Continue reading Bob’s Workout
