Wii Fit - A MUST HAVE!

So anyone who owns the Wii needs to get Wii Fit I have never had so much fun working out! You can play many games, challenge yourself all while having a blast! It takes your weight, BMI and tells you your Mii age which by the way was 37 hahahaha, im waaay out of shape! :) Anyway I will let you know if I meet my 1 month goal weight with Wii Fit this is going to be a great test!

Callanetics

I wanted to write a quick review about Callanetics. I have just bought this DVD and it is AWESOME! Its basic ballet and what i assume to be Yoga moves but together in a great 60 minute workout.

The first time I tried it I was in love, some of the moves are hard but most are simple and work muscles that you didnt even know you had. The streching is great. The 60 minutes flew by and I swear it only felt like 20 minutes. You are constantly relaxed and you dont feel strained at all. When I got up I was sore! Parts of my legs hurt that I have never felt before. This is a great workout and I would recommend it for anyone! I bought the first one from the 80's and I have read that its one of the best ones.

Callan Pinckney is the instructor and creator of Callanetics and she is very soft spoken and a pleasure to have as an instructor. She states in the beginning she is a 46 yr old woman and she doesnt even look it and has a GREAT body! I love this product and I think if you are looking for something to add to your workout to tone your body this is it!

I planned on doing it on my days off from the eliptical and I have found myself doing it everyday not for the results but because it makes me feel really good afterward! Awesome product BUY IT TODAY!

Taebo Boot Camp

So the other day I purchased Taebo Boot Camp and I must say it was a HARD workout. The Mission one was basic teaching you the basic taebo moves using a resistance band which really works, today I did Mission Two called Maximum Power and i about died!

This is a tough workout but I can see how you can get the results you want quickly! Billy Blanks words every muscle in your arms, shoulders, leg while tighting the stomach. I will say I do not think it is for beginners but I have done Taebo before and he has others that would be better to start with. I have used Taebo for years and I am far from pro but I know what the moves are and adding the band is 10 times harder!

I would totally recommend this to anyone looking to slim down, you get cardio and full body sculpting, my entire body hurts right now and thats good! All my muscles are tight and I know this is a workout for me to do every other day! I will stick to my eliptical on other days!
