If you’ve read Fit Fig before, you know I don’t do workouts with the words Boot Camp in them (except for oldie but goodie 10 Minute Solution: Kick Box Bootcamp*). It’s just not my thing. But I’m happy to pass it on to a lucky reader. Perhaps if you win you can come back and tell us how you like it!
To be in to win this DVD, just post a comment at the bottom. Tell us if you’ve done any of the 10-minute solution workouts or how you would like to use this DVD. Would you do 10-minute segments on different days? Tack on 10 minutes (or more) to other workouts? Do the whole 50 minutes as a workout on its own? Or heck, just tell me why you want it. (more…)
Speaking of Anchor Bay, I once sent an email to Andrea Ambandos, who produces and directs most (maybe all?) Anchor Bay workout videos. This was before I had discovered Cathe Friedrich and some of my other current favorite instructors. I had noticed that the workouts directed by Andrea Ambandos were better quality than most others I tried. So like I said, I sent her an email, just telling her how I appreciated that her workouts were better and how seeing her name was a good sign that it was a good workout. I’m such a dork. She never wrote back. I saw her later on that Work Out reality show (is that still on?) when she was working with Jackie on a fitness video. Anywho, that was just a little silly Fig factoid for ya.

This is another workout with convenient short segments. I have to confess (as I have probably confessed before) that I do not like workouts with the words Boot Camp in them. I’ve basically stopped ever doing boot camp workouts at all–even from my favorite instructor, Cathe Friedrich. It’s just not a Fit Fig thing. However, if you dig Denise Austin and like doing boot camp workouts, this one is for you! (more…)
In the interest of full disclosure and in compliance with a new FTC rule (seriously, can you believe the FTC cares what I write on this little blog?), I received this workout DVD free, compliments of Anchor Bay Entertainment.
Now that we’ve got that out of way, I decided my review this time would start off with just copying over the little notes I took between segments, so you can really get my fresh first impressions.
