I really like Jari Love's "Ripped" and she has just brought out two new dvds, namely, "Ripped to the Core" and " Ripped: Lean and Slim". They are marked down as advanced at Collage, just wondering if anyone has tried either of them and, if so, what do you think? :)
 
Hi Candy. :) I have "Get Ripped" also and really like it, though I consider it intermediate next to Cathe's stuff. I ordered "Slim and Lean" from Collage and should get it in a few days so I'll let you know what I think! :) I've heard it's a few notches up from "Ripped" in intensity...people on the VF website really seem to like it! :)
 
Thanks for your reply. I am soooo jealous lol! I cant wait to hear all about it! She is also bringing out more advanced ones later this year. :)
 
YES!! Please let us know how you like the Slim & Lean! There wasn't any review of it on Collage although the Ripped to the Core had one good review.
Thanks!!
 
I have this DVD and it is more advanced than Ripped, I has more reps, it is an endurance workout, body pump style. I have done Cathe Gym Styles and P90X and I got bulky. Slim & Lean is designed for those who do not want the bulk but want to lean out. I really like it, the ab section is very small, but you can make this workout as hard as you want by adding more weight. I have done it three times this week every other day, alternating with TJ for cardio.

There is a great feature to this DVD, there is a fitness model showing proper form at the begining of a new exercise, during the rest period. You can also pick the exercise from a menu and do just that body part.

Jari is very serious, she does not smile or crack any jokes.

The outfits are charcoal grey and white, the setting could have been improved with more color, the music is not the focus either, but the workout is high rep weight workout that can be tough, I used 40 pounds for legs and 30 for chest, to get through all the reps.
 
So it's not exactly a 'fun' workout, huh? I heard the music on the collage video clip and thought it might have a little 'fun factor'. That's too bad. I gotta have a little fun or I just can't make myself do it!!
 
Yay! Her new dvd Ripped to the Core has finally arrived at Collage so I have ordered that and Lean...cant wait!:7
 
Hi there
I got Slim and Lean last week. Its great actually. I've been doing it twice per week, and a heavier lift video, MM a third day. Jari is great, she always answers her own email!! I would suggest it for sure.
