RAW Workouts.  A few RAW workouts I have recently done. MegaMix 1 - similar to MegaMix 2 in that you do circuits consisting of a kettlebell exercise, egg weights, loop band and resistance tubing.  Workout clocks in at around 45-minutes   Travel Tubing is a 30 minute workouts that uses a resistance cord to strengthen the body. It consist of 10-exercises all performed in the standing position. Just Lift is a 42-minute workouts that uses a weights to strengthen the body. It consist of 9exercises performed for three sets.

Round 11 Cut Round - Mid Round Update A little more than mid-way thorough Round 11 and I am NOT on plan. Spent the first 4 weeks of the round treading water.  Then I had two back-to-back trips. One planned. One unplanned.  This has had me going in the reverse direction.  Should be able to get back on plan on Wednesday as I am still in the middle of the second trip.   Right now I am trying to decide how aggressive I want to be with the remainder of time in this cut round.   To recap, I started the round off at 145.9 and goal weight is 136.6.  Today weighed in at 153.2. Most of that gain I believe is bloat, water, salt etc. and a lot of over eating.  A week ago I was 146.8.   I think on Wednesday I will just pick up with the program as is and then see where I am at when September starts. If I am still over 150 when September starts, then I will get more aggressive. Otherwise I will just keep the plan as is and yes. I realize that I might not make my...

Total Body Strength Training is part of Jessica Smith's 2022 Strong & Centered series.  Jessica is the only cast member. This workout contains three strength training workouts. Total Body 48 is a 48 minute workout that uses dumbbells, a step, and a mat.  In this workout, Jessica takes you through four circuits.  The first and third circuits are performed in the standing position. The second and fourth circuits are performed from the floor.  The tempo is measured.  First time through, you are performing the exercises at a slower tempo and during the second run through Jessica might speed up the tempo. Total Body 31 is 31 minutes in length.  It is similar to 48 in the setup and execution. However, there are only three circuits. Total Body Band uses resistance tubing and it is an option if you are in travel mode.   There are three circuits that follow a similar format like the other two workouts on this DVD.  Total Body Band is 28 minutes...

Chantal Pierrat's Soul Sweat is a dance based workout set to an awesome soundtrack.  Chantal and her background dancers take you through a series of dance combos that use expansive movement to increase the energy and up the intensity.  The cast is barefoot.  The set is very moody  and use lighting that compliments the workouts.     DVD Menu Play Select Chapters       Tutorial       Deep Sweat (46 mins)       Quick Sweat (30 mins)       Stretch Special Features       Music       Dancers       Class Interview       Clothing       Sound True If you click 'Play', Chantal introduces you to the program and takes you through a Step by Step Tutorial of the basic steps and the combos.  This segment is around 24 minutes.  I am guessing the dances automatically follow after the tutorial.
