30 Minutes to Fitness: Build & Burn

Build & Burn is a fitness program from Kelly Coffey-Meyer. It contains 5 workouts that are all just under 30 minutes. There is no calendar but the idea is to start at workout 1 and do one workout a day. She also includes a week long menu and each meal is interchangeable. It doesn't give macro/nutrient or calorie … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Build & Burn

Walk Strong: 6 Week Total Transformation System

Walk Strong is a fitness program by Jessica Smith. It has been on my wish list since I discovered her via her YouTube workouts. I had planned to get it with any Amazon gift cards I got for Christmas and my birthday (since I always get them) but then Groupon offered it for half the price … Continue reading Walk Strong: 6 Week Total Transformation System

HIIT/Step w/ Kettlebell & Heavy Weights

HIIT/Step w/ Kettlebell & Heavy Weights is yet another amazing and fun workout from Yvette Bachman. I know I say it about every one of her workouts but every time I do one, I think it is my favorite. Well, I love this one so much I think it is my favorite now! The time … Continue reading HIIT/Step w/ Kettlebell & Heavy Weights

Fit Body by Julia: Get Pumped #5: Back Focus

Get Pumped #5: Back Focus is my final 2017 workout. I feel kind of sad. I have been really enjoying the long morning workouts I have been doing while on staycation. I do have one more day before I have to return to the daily grind and I have a long Yvette Bachman workout planned … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: Get Pumped #5: Back Focus

Fit Body by Julia: Back & Lat Burst

My back is probably my favorite muscle group to work (with my glutes followed close behind) so when I saw this mini workout was only 27 minutes, I knew I had to give it a try. It could be the perfect finisher for another workout. And I was right! I loved this workout! Very intense … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: Back & Lat Burst

Fit Body by Julia: Deadweight Legs

When I saw the title of this workout, I was anticipating a lower body workout. This is much more than that. This is actually a total body strength workout with a heavy lower body focus--and as the title suggests, a lot of deadlifts. But you do work all of your major upper body muscle groups … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: Deadweight Legs

Fit Body by Julia: PHAT #4

After doing PHAT #2 and not loving it nearly as much as PHAT #1, I considered not doing PHAT #3 and #4 at all. I am so glad I stuck with the plan because I love PHAT #4--as much as PHAT #1. PHAT #4 is awesome! And like PHAT #1, it will grow with you … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: PHAT #4

Fit Body by Julia: Extra Lean PHAT #2

This morning I did a long Fit Body by Julia workout: Extra Lean PHAT #2. I was really looking forward to it after doing her PHAT #1, which I loved, and also because I love the PHAT modality. And this was a good and challenging workout. I did like it and got a great workout … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: Extra Lean PHAT #2

High Intensity Cardio Blast

High Intensity Cardio Blast is another excellent and fun workout from Yvette Bachman. It was just what I needed after doing primarily Fit Body by Julia workouts this week. I love Julia's workouts but they aren't fun and the time does not fly. They are just hard (but very effective) work. Yvette's workouts are fun … Continue reading High Intensity Cardio Blast

Fit Body by Julia: Upper Body Workout

Upper Body Workout is another tough workout from Fit Body by Julia and it was created by Daniela. This workout is very deceiving. One thing I love about Julia's workouts is she gives you the break down below her videos so I can create my workout card in advance and choose my weights before starting. … Continue reading Fit Body by Julia: Upper Body Workout
