Simply Circuit is a cardio + strength workout, and the strength work is all upper body focused. Those types of workouts are hard to come by so as soon as I read that this was upper body focused, I bought it! I got this workout on sale on Gin Miller's website a while ago--and it … Continue reading Simply Circuit

Cathe Live: Sweat, Jump & Pump
Another tough and awesome cardio + strength workout from Cathe Live. This one really wore me out! Excellent total body strength training plus intense HIIT level cardio. I loved it! She calls it "random" training, I guess because there is no pattern to the strength and cardio intervals. It moves pretty quickly, too. And Cathe … Continue reading Cathe Live: Sweat, Jump & Pump
Hard Work Conditioning 24/7
Hard Work Conditioning 24/7 is the 3rd Hard Work Conditioning workout by Patrick Goudeau. Patrick is the master of metabolic strength training and this is another excellent addition to his collection. It is called 24/7 because he has it set up so you can use this workout every day in different ways. In fact, the … Continue reading Hard Work Conditioning 24/7
Cathe Live: Cardio Circuit Mash Up
Cardio Circuit Mash Up is a metabolic cardio workout. It was a pretty intense little workout and I really enjoyed it. It appears that the structure of this workout was supposed to be cardio exercises alternated with strength exercises but as the workout progresses Cathe forgets to do some of the strength exercises so it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Circuit Mash Up
Cathe Live: Ramped Up Cardio & Weights
It's been a while since I've done a new Cathe Live. I am still doing Cathe Live workouts, but they are ones I've already done and I know in advance what weights to use. However, I do love Cathe's cardio + strength workouts. I've done all of her Cathe Live ones that are total body workouts … Continue reading Cathe Live: Ramped Up Cardio & Weights

It contains 5 approximately 10 minute workouts, plus a separate warm up and cool down that you can add onto the workout(s). I really, really loved this DVD. I've only … Continue reading 10 Minute Body Transformation
Boot Camp Body Blast
Boot Camp Body Blast is a new workout by Cathe Friedrich. Unlike her other workouts, it was not produced by her and it is not sold by her. It is sold through IDEA, a health and fitness association. They had a conference this year and Cathe taught a class to other trainers to teach them … Continue reading Boot Camp Body Blast
Bikini Body: Bootylicious
I am now a big fan of Tracey Mallett. After doing the fabulous F.I.T. and The Booty Barre: Total New Body, she is filling up my wishlist. Her workouts are hard, effective and she brings such a warm and personable presence to her workouts. She is encouraging and likable and I just love doing workouts … Continue reading Bikini Body: Bootylicious
Get Ripped in 6 Minutes
I'm a big fan of Jari Love though I do not do her workouts as frequently as I used to, they are always good and very effective. Her workouts are usually high rep/endurance level circuit workouts that are frequently metabolic and so are giving you cardio with your strength work. The real benefit of some … Continue reading Get Ripped in 6 Minutes
Cathe Live: Smokin’ Upper Body Blast
Smokin' Upper Body Blast was tough! Surprisingly tough! Excellent workout. I love cardio + strength workouts--especially when they isolate the upper body. There aren't a lot of those types of workouts out there (they are usually total body or lower body focused), so when I discover one, I glom it! And this is an especially … Continue reading Cathe Live: Smokin’ Upper Body Blast
