Good Morning! Today I got up a little late. Did Power Yoga for Happiness Daily Dose of Bliss (40 minutes) and am going for a 30 minute walk at lunch. I also did a headstand for 46 seconds (a new record!) Deanie - I also had pancakes this morning for breakfast (courtesy of DH!:) Hope you...

Hi Everyone! Sorry I've been gone so long but that never-ending project at work is still going on but I should have it wrapped up within the next couple of weeks and hopefully I'll have more time to chat. Today I did Dove #3 and went for a 30 minute walk. Yesterday I did Power Yoga for...

kariev - I have Ultimate Cardio Barre Advanced and I love it. I actually do get a nice cardio workout from it. I find it more advanced than Physique 57 although Physique 57 might have a bit more upper body work (more pushups). The Power Thighs bonus workout (14 mins.) is worth the DVD. I do...

Hi Everyone! Thank you for all your wonderful birthday wishes! Unfortunately, it's another crazy day at work. And to think a few months ago, it was so quiet. I wish I had more time to chat with everyone. Yesterday I did Hard Candy Bellydance Tutorial for the first time which was really...

Good Afternoon Everyone! Sorry my posts are far and few between. Still really busy. I did Dove #1 today and went for a 30 minute walk. Dove today had lots of step ups (parallel and turned out), burpees, for cardio mainly jump rope, for abs - boat, boat crunches, bicycle, rockabyes, reverse...

Hi Everyone! My project at work is slowly winding down so hopefully I'll be able to post more this week. Today I did 4 chinups, HIIT Double Wave Pyramid (only rested after warmup and then was able to get through the rest of the workout with not extra rests!) and a 30 minute walk. I'm...

I liked this DVD but it is definitely not for beginners. I would try another DVD (or an RKC trainer) and get your form perfected first. There are some possibly dangerous moves. She does the overhead swings while running across the room IIRC. I would look at a DVD like Lauren Brooks or any of...

Hi Everyone! I'm back (briefly!) Very busy at work (which I guess is a good thing - it's either feast or famine around here.) I'm back to taking two-step classes this month on Tuesdays. I've also been walking for 30 minutes from Monday to Friday in addition to my workouts. Here are my...

STS Ab Circuits - Stability Ball IIRC, Mindy Mylrea's All About Abs Stability Ball has them too. Marcy

Aquajock - I have all 3 and love them! Power & Agility is probably the toughest. Lots of moves on the floor and getting up. You really need a strong core for these. Cathe's MMA Fusion is similar but I think Budokon is more pure MMA. I could have done without sitting in seza for the...

Like - The variety and the challenge Weights & Plates - one of the toughest ab workouts I've ever done. Liked the Pilates segment. Thought the yoga could have been tougher. Marcy

Good Afternoon! Just a quick check-in. Still really busy at work!:mad: Did Fluidity Intermediate. Since I don't have the Fluidity Bar, I used my pullup bar. Did 2 pullups and 1 chinup. Workout has 16 pushups. Had a great flat back core exercise done against the wall bringing legs...

I trade them at videofitness.com, donate them to the library or Good Will or try and find a friend who might like them. Marcy

Hi Everyone! I'm still feeling like crap but I managed to do a workout today. I broke open a new one - Resist A Ball Rhythmic Stretch & Strengthen with Rebecca Lloyd. Never heard of the instructor but she was good. Lots of balance moves. Some tough stuff like pushups on the ball...

As Conni said, great workout but too long. I've only done the whole thing once or twice. I usually do the premixes (upper and lower body) which are between 38-45 minutes. I don't like the warmup. I feel the deadlifts are too fast. The best part of the DVD for me is the pretzel/clam combo...

Hi Everyone! Sorry I've been MIA this week but am working on a big project at work. Over the weekend, I went to a West Coast Swing class and then had a dance afterwards. They taught us how to do a little bit of dirty dancing (or at least as the instructor put it, "the illusion of dirty...

Good Afternoon! I did Lisa Nunziella's 5-Day Latin - Merengue. Fun, easy to follow. I followed that with Shiva's Daily Energy Flow - Shanti (hip opening practice - ahhhh!) and I went for a half hour walk at lunch (so I won't get all those bad effects from sitting too long!) I've been walking...

Good Afternoon! Sorry I was MIA yesterday. I did Cathe's MMA Kickbox yesterday. Great core work. My obliques are still store. Today I pulled out an oldie - P90X Legs & Back. Those chair squats are still killer but the chair salutations didn't feel as bad as they used to. First round...

Good Afternoon! Today I did Core Fusion Body Sculpt Arms & Thighs segments. I used 5s and 3s for triceps and 5s for everything else. Then I did the warmup, Contemporary (workout only) and cooldown from SYTYCD Cardio Funk. It was good but not as good as I thought it would be. I thought there...

Amy Bento's Kickbox Surge still tops my list. Marcy
