…so I do it at home
I already have a blog post called BeFit in 30 Extreme which is the review of a DVD workout I checked out at the library. It contains three 20 minute workouts. You do each workout once a week and repeat for 30 days. Well, that DVD was just the first month of the BeFit in … Continue reading BeFit in 30 Extreme//90 Day Program
Kickbox FastFix is a workout collection by Jillian Michaels. It contains 3 approx. 20 minute workouts. The workouts each have a focus: upper body, lower body and core. The workouts are made up of circuits that alternate kickboxing w/ conditioning that targets the body part the workout is focused on. In the Upper Body focus … Continue reading Kickbox FastFix
So far I've focused on the lower body and cardio YouTube workouts but I decided that I should sample some of the upper body workouts, too, since they could be nice finishers for my longer upper body and total body workouts. So, this morning was Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio & Strength and I finished … Continue reading Popsugar: Strapless Dress Arm Workout
This is not technically my first BeFit workout, but it is my first using YouTube. The other BeFit workouts I've done are part of a program (BeFit in 30 Extreme). I checked out level 1 on DVD at the library and was notified by a reader that the entire program (which includes levels 2 and … Continue reading BeFit: Strong Ass Glutes Bootcamp Workout
Leg Sculpting Hot Pants Workout is another awesome little 10 minute workout from Popsugar led by Anna Renderer. This time it is just Anna. She has no exercisers with her. I really liked this one a lot. It is a perfect add-on/finisher for a lower body workout. That is not how I ended up using it today, … Continue reading Popsugar: Leg Sculpting Hot Pants Workout
This is a rotation I have been planning for a while but it took longer than it should have to take shape. One of the things delaying it was/is Cathe Live. All I want to do anymore are Cathe Live workouts. So I decided to incorporate Cathe Live into this rotation. However, that also means … Continue reading Ripped w/ HIIT & Gym Style Rotation
Bootcamp w/ Step is another awesome, fun and effective cardio + strength Cathe Live workout. This workout is set up circuit fashion. There are 8 circuits and each circuit consists of a cardio blast on the step followed by a lower body strength exercise and ending with an upper body strength exercise. The workout ends … Continue reading Cathe Live: Bootcamp w/ Step
Legs w/ Weights & Stability Ball is another tough and excellent lower body workout. This one is along the lines of STS Mesocycle 2's lower body workouts. It is set up in trisets--3 exercises done one right after the other with little rest between. You repeat each triset 3 times. What was really surprising about … Continue reading Cathe Live: Legs w/ Weights & Stability Ball
Total Body Barbell & Bands was another excellent (and long) total body strength workout. Cathe doesn't have too many long workouts on Cathe Live but the ones she has are challenging and thorough. I really like the set up of this one, too. She starts you out with lower body then hits the majority of … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Barbell & Bands
Holy $hit. This workout was brutal. I did not expect this workout to be so effing hard when I decided to try it. In fact, I had some mixed feelings about it. After watching the video clip, I didn't even really know if I was interested in it or not then decided--what the heck. I … Continue reading Cathe Live: Totally Toned Legs
