fitness heaven top 10 workouts

[Guest guest]

since someone did ask about i would like to go through the top 10

workouts. i got this collection for under $20 at best buy. but if you

search online try fitnessheaven.com 's 10 Best Workouts

the first workout is called kickbutt. its a low impact but high

intensity kickboxing workout. there are two 45 min segments. the

first one is about 20 mins. cardio then two 10mins toning segments

one for abs on for arms. the second workout is a longer 35-40 mins.

of cardio punches and kicks and a quick 5 min workout for the buns. i

dont care much for the first one b/c i do like to have a longer

cardio session to really " blast the fat " so to speak.

the second workout is yogacize with former supermodel jerry hall. its

70 mins long or can be broken down in five modoules. i really like

this b/c there is a section for strecthing,using classical poses, and

an energizing segment(really good to get going on a slow morning)

the third is called body focus with three 30 min segments. one

cardio, one weight workout, and a legs/abs workout. i dont care much

for the cardio b/c it does not get my heart rate up to much but the

weight workout is challenging even with light weights and i use the

legs/abs workout for a quick toning workout when i am pressed for

time.i would say this better for the beginner then the

intermediate/advanced student.

the forth is called jazzthetics with traci lords. i dont care much

b/c it's just like fidgeting on the ground. its not areobics but its

not toning i just think its plain weird personally.

tai-fit is the fifth workout. like tae-bo,it has 3 segments a quick

toning segment, an instructional workout on how to properly kick and

punch, then the intense cardio. this workout is only 30mins. but

really gets my heart rate up there with the challenging kicks and

punch/kick/block combos without any jumping the really does a number

on my knees.

the sixth workout is rotation and motiviation. again 3 segments

roughly 30mins each. the cardio is not bad for an easy day b/c its

low impact but it keeps my heart rate up. the toning is so-so i

really dont feel like i got a workout on my legs or arms with this

one. the third segment is the abs. its about 26 mins. of intense ab

work that usually keeps me sore.

the 7th workout is back in action. about 40mins or broken into 2

20mins segments. this is more a light toning segment to help keep

your back aligned and strenghten the muscles(like hamstrings,and

lower abs)that help support all areas of the back. i like to use this

with one of my pilates tapes as a little extra work to help my back.

the 8th workout called lite aerbics(with shirley jones) is

40mins.with 20mins of low impact aerobics. this is good b/c it splits

one side of beginners with no jumping and advacned with litle jumping

and jogging so you can watch one side of the screen or the other to

keep. after aerobic you get a quick 20mins of toning. not much for my

tastes but you can always skip to strecthing and use your own

method/video for toning.

the 9th workout is one step beyonds. this is a favorite of mine. its

40-45mins of high intensity but low impact easy to follow step

moves.the instructor Diane Springfield is really good at cueing and

giving advice all through the video.good for beginners and pretty

good for advanced as a lighter workout.

the 10th workout is fat burners. this is 3 different segments about

30 mins each. all are low impact. one called baby boomers which is a

real light workout,another is funky workout using funky dance moves,

the other is called hot bods which combines aerobics and toning using

your own body weight. for max benefits i combine two segments b/c one

does not ever seem enough for me.

i would say myself that this is good for beginners/intermediate

exercisers.i mostly use tai-fit,yogacize,and back in action. the

other segments i use one in awhile just to mix things up. but i did

spend under $20 for 10 workouts so it was worth it even if i only

used 3 workouts.

sorry this turned out to be so long.but i hope you have found this to

be helpful.
