Jessica says this is an endurance cardio workout; you won't get breathless and it is good for a recovery day. I was impressed with this workout. I really liked it a lot.

JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion #1
I did Cardio Mat Fusion #2 before I did Cardio Mat Fusion #1--not on purpose. I just never realized there was a #1 until I was already doing #2. Though this is also a low impact, no equipment workout, I found it different from the second one in several ways. First, this one was more … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Mat Fusion #1

JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet
Kickboxing Ballet is 29 minutes long; 45 second intro. The warm up is about 3 minutes and, since the workout starts with the ballet/barre portion of the workout--that is what the warm up consists of: gentle dynamic ballet type of moves.

JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt
Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt is another fun (and free!) fusion workout from Jessica Smith.

The intensity actually builds as the workout progresses. When … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Kickboxing Ballet Body Sculpt
Dream Body Workout Series
A long time ago I did a Dream Body stand alone workout and I hated it. I never in a million years thought I would do another one. I did get a comment at the time telling me that the series (this review) was way better than the stand alone workout I did. I still … Continue reading Dream Body Workout Series
Workout!
Workout! is the final workout I purchased at Mindy Mylrea's $3.99 sale. I've now done all of the workouts I bought at her sale and this one might be my favorite. It was very intense--no complicated moves, but I loved the combos she put together in this workout. I burned a ton of calories--500 in … Continue reading Workout!
