Well, my initial plan for August was to do systems. My original plan included Peak Fit Challenge system and the Aerobox systems, but it became a hassle ordering the Aerobox system so I nixed that. So then I decided to do the Peak Fit Challenge System with Tracey Staehle's New Total Body Boot Camp workouts. These workouts were supposed to be release mid-June, but as of right now I still don't have them, so this plan too got nixed. The latest plan is to do the Peak Fit Challenge system with "Pink" FIRM workouts. It has been a couple of years since I have done many of the Pink FIRM workouts. I have signed up for a 10K race. Race date is October 30th. I will start training for that with treadmill work on Sunday and Wednesday. Also, I have just received the new Amy Bento workouts. I will try to fit KB2 in sometime as an evening workout. I also ordered Seasun's new Zfit Step and I plan to start learning the combos to that as well.

This workout is 40 minutes in length and is led by Allie Del Rio. Allie is one of my favorite FIRM instructors and this workout is one of my favorite "pink" FIRM workouts. I am not crazy about the "pink" FIRM workouts but if I had to choose the best among them, then this would be one of them. I thought the workout moved extremely fast. However, the exercises were sequence in a way that you could go heavy on some of the lower body moves. I think my favorite part of the workout was the ab set. It was short but had some of my favorite ab and core moves. This is probably my 5th or 6th time doing this workout. I use this workout on sculpting days when my time is short or when I am trying to throw a little variety in my sculpting routine from the more traditional weight workouts that I prefer to do. Many of the exercises in this workout are compound in nature. I give this workout 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars.
