REVIEW!!!!Total Body Workout

This DVD has been around for a while but I felt it was worth a mention.Tom Holland's Total Body Workout is a great strength training workout that includes cardio and abs. This workout requires hand weights, lots of squats and lunges and other old school moves.

Here's a sample from the workout:
Warm-up-1 minute
Light Stretches

Cardio Interval-30 seconds

Squats-15 reps
Alternating Biceps Curl-12 reps each arm

Plie Squats-15 reps

Alternating Biceps Curl-12 reps each arm
Toe-In Squats -15 reps

Cardio Interval-30 seconds

Crunches-15 reps
Pushups-10 reps
Overhead Shoulder Presses-12 reps

Static Lunges-10 reps each leg
Overhead Shoulder Presses-12 reps
Cardio Interval-30 seconds

It's a really simple set-up with Tom Holland talking you through a traditional progression of resistance training moves in real-time. Tom makes a point of explaining that the video is shot in real-time with no edits, meaning, he is really working out with you. If you like doing DVD workouts at home then you need this one in your library, it's a keeper, I revisit it regularly.

I do have to admit that there is something about this video that makes me laugh until about the 15 minute mark, I don't know if it's the scene/angle choices or Tom Holland's delivery but in the beginning I could hardly stay focused but after a few minutes I was totally into it.

run, run, run

I know it's better not to quantify workouts as good or bad but I had a GREAT run this morning.
I haven't been able to run for a couple of days because The Son has tonsillitis and The Husband has been out of town so I was really happy to get out on the road this morning. I seriously felt like I could have run for hours. It wasn't too hot or windy this morning and there wasn't much traffic.I was able to get in a few extra hills which will be good for the Fun Run since it's in a part of town which is ALL hills. Perhaps it's time to add some more distance onto my run, I've been pretty conservative about this because I didn't want to hurt myself. Maybe now is the time.

Also, I have a few REVIEWS of DVDs and online fitness communities posting soon.

more later,
