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

GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (26 Minutes)
I added the (26 minutes) to the title because GymRa has a second workout with the exact same title and exact same trainer (Raneir Pollard)--except it's 25 minutes. I will be doing and reviewing that one here also, so they need something to set them apart. With the right weights, this is a short but … Continue reading GymRa: Grueling HIIT Workout (26 Minutes)
Betty Rocker: Back Attack
I saved this little workout to a playlist a long time ago then forgot about it. Then I did Betty Rocker's Cardio Barre and decided to give this one a try. I am all about strengthening my back. It is my absolute favorite muscle group to work and there really is nothing sexier than a … Continue reading Betty Rocker: Back Attack
Barlates: Pyramid Upper Body
Wow. This was a tough and excellent workout! A little different from what I have become accustomed to with Barlates workouts, but I still loved it. Linda has done some other excellent strength workouts using heavier dumbbells but, other than Back Strength, nothing this comprehensive (that I have done yet, that is). It is based … Continue reading Barlates: Pyramid Upper Body
Barlates: Pyramid Lower Body
I bought this workout from Linda on Ebay. She has her own Ebay store where she sells workout DVDs--her Barlates workouts and lots of other trainers' workouts. You can also buy it directly from her website. Since I don't know if/how long her ebay listing will be up, here is the link to this workout on her website. There … Continue reading Barlates: Pyramid Lower Body
JessicaSmithTV: 30 Minute H.I.I.T.
Jessica Smith's 30 Minute H.I.I.T. is an excellent workout that I (of course) love, but it's not really a HIIT workout. It is an interval workout and I loved it, but I didn't find it HIIT level intense. I have the day off today (4 day weekend) so I got to do a longer morning … Continue reading JessicaSmithTV: 30 Minute H.I.I.T.
All About Legs
All About Legs is a collection of 4 short workouts that each work your lower body using various equipment--medicine ball, stability ball, step + resistance tube and sliding disks. Each segment can be used alone since they all start with an easy move that functions as a warm up and they all end with a short stretch. … Continue reading All About Legs
Gliding Extreme
Just as the title implies this is an extreme workout. It is advanced and it is tough. BTW--I loved it. Excellent, excellent workout from Mindy Mylrea. Gliding Extreme is set outside in a meadow. There is a large round platform set in the grass and Mindy does all of her sliding on this platform. It's just Mindy--no … Continue reading Gliding Extreme
Total Body Double G Workout
Finally! Another Mindy Mylrea workout I enjoyed! I was disappointed in her last two that I tried and was starting to worry. This is another of the many Mindy workouts I got at her $3.99 sale. The big draw of that sale for me was her medicine ball and gliding disk workouts and, since this one combined … Continue reading Total Body Double G Workout

Every segment on this DVD uses either a resistance loop … Continue reading Barlates: Resista-Barre Total Body Workout
