Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hi, I'm glad i saved this one for today - I couldn't have done this one on no sleep yesterday! This one is a blend of kickboxing, bootcamp and light weight training (3's or 5's max, most of the exercises with weights are done at a fast tempo and often incorporate balance challenges - a bit Pilates/core inspired since you have to work your core to balance yourself on one foot). Tracey does a good job of cueing this athletic style workout, but she does giggle alot - it isn't bad, it seems genuine so it is not annoying. There are four backgrounders, two men, two women - one of the women shows modifications - but they're hard to see - from what I can tell she doesn't add weights or balance challenges to the weighted exercises. The DVD is well chaptered and the workout can be pretty intense - I was anaerobic pretty often during some of her 'blasts' Overall a good one if you like kickboxing and bootcamp and a bit of Pilates. There is a bonus at the end - 6 Pack Abs which is Pilates-inspired ab work, which I had time to do today. As usual, I warmed up with T-Tapp Primary Back Stretch. Tomorrow the plan is to do this one's companion - SuperBody Bootcamp Firm It - which is more toning, as I recall. I'm definately enjoying the change up in my routine. I do feel as though I'm fighting something off, I keep taking the airborne and I have my fingers crossed that it doesn't actually materialize into anything. Take care!

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Sounds like a great workout, Donna. Well done! I don't believe I've tried Tracey Mallett before, but I'll keep my eyes open for her, since she comes up on this list alot. -----Original Message----- From: exercisevideos Hi, I'm glad i saved this one for today - I couldn't have done this one on no sleep yesterday!

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Hi Donna! I've only watched this, but it looks fun and hard! Harder than the Firm It one! Thanks for the review! I do hope you're not coming down with something :/ I still feel crummy but am at work today (on my break at the moment) and not sure I'll get to work out tonite. Wannnnh! The good thing about being sick is that I lose my appetite and I feel lighter.. Hugs! Donna M-P wrote: Hi,I'm glad i saved this one for today - I couldn't havedone this one on no sleep yesterday!

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Sorry you are still feeling yucky . Speaking of eating lighter, I am doing an *experiment* and am eating very very lightly for a few days to see what it does to the scale. It was low this morning (my weight), and am curious to see what it reads tomorrow too. I'm sure it was low cause of water weight. I went to bed hungry..grr... I am not starving myself by no means, but am just really being strict for a bit to see what happens. Darcy Hi Donna! I've only watched this, but it looks fun and hard! Harder than the Firm It one!
