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: Total Body Chisel & Burn
Total Body Chisel & Burn is a short metabolic total body workout. And with the right weights it gets pretty intense. I really enjoyed this workout even though there was no Peanut. Though the exercises are done at a controlled pace, this is a circuit workout with very little rest between each exercise. And since the … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Total Body Chisel & Burn
JessicaSmithTV: Cardio Sculpt
Cardio Sculpt is not a cardio workout but a metabolic strength training workout. So it is a fast paced circuit workout where one exercises flows into the next with little to no rest. That is the cardio/metabolic factor. For only 20 minutes, this was a great little workout. I used it in combination w/ Jessica's … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Cardio 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
JessicaSmithTV: Met Con 5
"Met Con" is short for metabolic conditioning and the "5" means the workout is made up of 5 key moves. Jessica says during the warm up that this is not a workout for beginners. And I agree. It isn't an advanced workout, but it is intermediate level and pretty intense if you are using appropriate … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: Met Con 5
GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (25 Minutes)
I added the (25 minutes) to the title because GymRa has a second workout with the exact same title and exact same trainer (Raneir Pollard)--except it's 26 minutes. I have already reviewed Raneir's 26 Min Grueling HIIT, so I needed something to set them apart. This is another great workout led by Raneir. The intensity … Continue reading GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (25 Minutes)
Quickies
Quickies is another Mindy Mylrea workout I got at her $3.99 sale. This one contains 12 mini workouts that are 4-9 minutes long (but average 6 minutes). You can go to each segment individually or you can do them grouped into workouts: Gliding Disks & Body Weight (37:30 minutes) and Bender Ball & Medicine Ball … Continue reading Quickies
Boost Metabolism + Muscle
Boost Metabolism + Muscle is a workout DVD by Jessica Smith that has been on my wishlist for a long time but I couldn't decide to get it until I discovered Jessica's YouTube channel JessicaSmithTV. I have done a lot of her free YouTube workouts and I love them--so I finally bought it. This DVD … Continue reading Boost Metabolism + Muscle
All Systems GO!
All Systems GO! is another workout I got at Mindy Mylrea's $3.99 sale. This one uses a body bar and nothing else. Mindy labels it as a cardio and strength workout but it all depends on the weight of your body bar. I have two body bars. One weighs 15 pounds and one weighs 9 … Continue reading All Systems GO!
