I almost forgot about writing this week's post, so I'm
listening to the last half of the new "Castle" episode
while I'm writing this. Then a little bit later tonight I'll have do my
late night workout, which will be last day of week six of the
"Master's Hammer & Chisel" workout program. The last two weeks of the program starts tomorrow. I'm not for sure
what I'm going to do after the program; though I'm considering doing
the "Beast Body" workout program, which I already own the
DVDs.
However, I need to add some more "cardio"
into my weekly workouts as I'm not seeing any weight loss on the
scales; though I have seen a little body fat loss around my chest and
arms, but not so much around my love handles.
I lost a lot of weight a few years ago when I was doing
Tae Bo workouts. Yes, I know Tae Bo is considered "old" and
out of style to many, but the exercises are very intense and an easy
way to get into shape. Sadly, things came up in my life, which I will
not name here, and I didn't have time to exercise; resulting in some
weight gain. When I eventually went back to Tae Bo, I started having
issues with my knees/legs and my back, which was probably caused by
the lack of exercise and the weight gain. I did a few Beachbody
workouts last year and lost about ten pounds, but I took around five
months off from exercising last fall and gained all the weight back.
My plan is to slowly start adding Tae Bo back into my
workouts; probably starting tomorrow. Yes, I do have an arsenal of
Tae Bo DVDs. Starting around 2008 or 2009, I would buy almost every
new Tae Bo title that came out. I got most of the older titles on
eBay over the years. During the time I wasn't doing Tae Bo, I was
still keeping an eye out for new releases, but for some reason Anchor
Bay quit releasing new ones. Then, Tae Bo Fitness updated their
website and began producing new titles through their BG Star
Productions, where you could only buy the new DVDs on their website. I was
aware of the new titles, but I didn't purchase them because the DVDs
were more than twice the price of what they used to be.
The good news is that three of the DVDs have came down
in price, so I went ahead and purchased them as well as two newer
titles. Surprisingly, I received the DVDs yesterday afternoon, just a
few days after I ordered them.
The titles are:
- Tae Bo: Basics & Low Impact (2 full workouts and 3 bonus workouts (warm up, cool down, stretching)
- Tae Bo: Knock Out (1 - 45-minute workout)
- Tae Bo: Advanced, Extreme & Core (3 - 30 minute workouts)
- Tae Bo: Kickboxing & Kwon (1 --30-minute workout and 1 - 20-minute workout)
- Tae Bo: Butt (1 - 60-minute workout)
I'm planning on featuring a review for each title in
the near future as a Fitness & Coffee Sundays post.
