September 22, 2011 by Kelsey
I’ll admit it: I’ve gained a few pounds in the last year. So I was intrigued by Tone It Up! One Day Fat Blast when I first picked it up. Gosh knows I could stand to “tone it up” a bit. Although it took me awhile to gear... Continue reading...
Review: Flabs 2 Abs (And Two Super-Goofy Dudes)
August 25, 2011 by Jenn

Review: Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30
April 13, 2011 by Jenn
Not that Jillian was playing before, but in Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30, she certainly isn’t playing. She’s fired up, and in four 30ish-minute workouts that go from slightly hard to “OMG, Jill, why do you hate me and... Continue reading...

Work Out With Kendra in This DVD
March 29, 2011 by Jenn
