Review: Ellen Barrett Live Power Fusion
March 16, 2012 by Jenn
I remember last year when Fit Bottomed Mamas interviewed Ellen Barrett. One line that I loved from the Q&A was her advice on workouts: “Workouts can be nurturing or they can be abuse. Choose nurturing.” Simple but sage… Continue reading...
Review and Giveaway: The Perfect Harmony of Breathing
December 31, 2011 by Erin
We’ve dipped our toes into the meditation waters a few times around these parts, so I was excited when Breathe: The Perfect Harmony of Breathing landed in my mailbox. Who doesn’t need to take a moment (or 20) to herself every… Continue reading...
Review: Core Fusion Power Sculpt (with Giveaway!)
December 28, 2011 by Kristen
Since I’ve been training for a half marathon, I’ve found myself craving workouts that allow me to stretch my running muscles. There’s been a lot of yoga happening in this household, is what I’m saying, and I’ve… Continue reading...
Review: Shiva Rea More Daily Energy Vinyasa Flow Yoga
December 15, 2011 by Kristen
Pretty much all workouts boost my mood and level of energy level, but yoga is especially good at leaving me in a different state of mind. I’m familiar with Shiva Rea, so when her new DVD, More Daily Energy Vinyasa Flow Yoga was released,… Continue reading...
Review: Kristin McGee’s Power Yoga (and Giveaway!)
October 6, 2011 by Jenn

Even though we focus on being fit over being skinny here at Fit Bottomed Girls, I’ve learned not to judge a workout by its DVD cover. Plus, Jenn reviewed Bethenny Frankel’s first DVD, as did I, and we both found it to be pretty… Continue reading...
Rockin Models: A Rockin’ Workout?
August 11, 2011 by Kristen
I know, I know. You shouldn’t judge a book (or a DVD) by its cover. But I can’t help it—I feel like a workout DVD gives me a little clue as to what to expect with the photo it chooses for the front cover, and when the promo… Continue reading...
Review: Mandy Ingber’s Yogalosophy Workout DVD
July 28, 2011 by Jenn

Yoga DVDs to Start Your Day: Power Yoga and Shiva Rea A.M. Energy
May 31, 2011 by Kristen
As much as I’d love to be someone who eagerly hops out of bed at 7 a.m. and straps on my shoes for an early run, I am not. If I actually manage to get up and start a workout before 8 or so in the morning, it’s almost a given… Continue reading...
Become a Mega-fit Momma With This Yoga DVD (and Giveaway)
I must be in need of a little rest and relaxation lately because I have definitely been drawn to the more relaxing yoga-esque postpartum workout DVDs. (I am apparently getting enough cardio chasing after my more mobile daughter.) And… Continue reading...
