Riptensity is a body weight training system put out by Men's Health. It was created and led by Gideon Akande. He has a very impressive background but I was most excited because he was a crew member in Meta Shred 21! In fact, he was the advanced modifier! His other claims to fame are being … Continue reading Riptensity

Cathe Live: Hooked on Legs
Hooked on Legs is another intense and effective lower body workout from Cathe. And she has so many of them! It is really hard to choose which one I want to do--especially now that I think I've done nearly every single one of her Live lower body workouts (except the most recent one). In this workout … Continue reading Cathe Live: Hooked on Legs
Cathe Live: Rock Bottoms & Core
Rock Bottoms & Core is another tough lower body workout from Cathe Live. I have been doing a lot of Live lower body workouts recently, so to be honest, I am not sure if I'm burning out my lower body or if this was just a hard workout but I seemed to be feeling it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Rock Bottoms & Core
Cathe Live: Long & Sculpted Legs
Long & Sculpted Legs really fried my legs. It seemed particularly appropriate after my last leg workout (Cathe Live Triset Legs) because this workout fries your lower body in a completely different way. No dumbbells, barbell or step are used in Long & Sculpted Legs. Just a sliding device (I used Slide N Glide disks), … Continue reading Cathe Live: Long & Sculpted Legs
Cathe Live: Triset Legs
Wow! This is a tough and effective lower body workout. And super intense! This worked me hard. According to my Fitbit I was in my peak heart rate nearly 1/3 of this strength workout. And it felt like it. I was drenched in sweat by the end. Now, I did lift heavier than Cathe on … Continue reading Cathe Live: Triset Legs
Cathe Live: Legs & Glutes
Legs & Glutes is a Live workout based on the DVD version of Legs & Glutes. So in order to prepare for this workout, I did the DVD Legs & Glutes. I had forgotten how much I love that workout. It is part of her Body Blast Series, which contain some my absolute favorite Cathe … Continue reading Cathe Live: Legs & Glutes
30 Minutes to Fitness: Body Design
Kelly Coffey-Meyer recently created two new DVDs in her 30 Minutes to Fitness series: Body Design and Meltdown. Body Design is a whole new approach to her 30 minute workouts and I love it. Rather than two 30 minute workouts and a bunch of premixes like Kelly's other DVDs contain, this DVD contains six segments … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Body Design
30 Minutes to Fitness: Meltdown
More workouts from Kelly Coffey-Meyer! These are of course auto-buys for me and I pre-ordered them as soon as she announced them. I received them on Saturday and restructured my week to do them. She produced two DVDs in her 30 Minutes to Fitness series and this is the first one I sampled: Meltdown. The … Continue reading 30 Minutes to Fitness: Meltdown
Cathe Live: Total Body Band & Glide
Total Body Band & Glide is an interesting Live workout. It is a total body workout using only a resistance band and sliding disks. It is a pretty good workout. I did enjoy it. Not your usual strength training, but a nice departure from the norm. A good way to mix things up. Personally, I prefer … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Band & Glide
Get Your Body Back
Get Your Body Back is another Tracey Mallett workout. The theme of this workout is to "lose the baby fat"--but trust me, this workout is not just for new moms. This workout is excellent for anyone. There are a lot of ways you can approach this workout. If you are new to exercise for any … Continue reading Get Your Body Back
