Has anyone done a rotation of body weight work with mark lauren you are your own gym
 
Has anyone tried mark Lauren’s workouts?

What equipment does one need?

How did you like them? Results?

It's been a while, a long while, but I'll tell you what I remember.
I really enjoyed YAYOG. I have all his DVDs, even though some of the newer ones I haven't used at all or rarely.
His original YAYOG was doable for me. It was pretty short though and I like something longer. If I use them again, which I may, I would add on an episode of CS.
I really like his calm demeanor and his voice. His form is perfect. His YAYOG app was super inexpensive and great for travel.
At the time I was using his DVDs a lot I really liked them.
HTH :)

Thanks for the info! I'm thinking of trying his workouts.

Have you ever done Ruthless? It's also all bodyweight.

Sorry Carol, I just saw this. I own Ruthless but have not used them yet except once I think and it wasn't right for me at the time. I still have it though and may someday use it. I think it has a lot of up and down and burpee type movements. I am careful to not tweak my back so go slower than those young'uns.:D

I'll tell you what also seems like a good bodyweight workout program Jillian Michael's Body Revolution. It also uses some weights if I remember correctly. I liked it so much I bought the next phase called Body Shred. I moved on though and never even tried the Body Shred. I still have them both though.

I posted about my rotation in another thread:
I started Mark Lauren's 90 day Challenge this week and it should end the first week of August in time for my vacation. Its bodyweights, 3-4 times a week, 30-40 min including warm up and cool down. I am liking it so far since its not hurried, doable, intense and stretchy at the same time

Aliskina, do you happen to know how similar this is too his other DVDs? I tried reading reviews on Amazon but many of them are actually for the DVDs I already own.
Thanks

I'm interested in hearing about your rotation :sun:

Wow! Thank you so much for writing all that info. The moves do look familiar to me; I have, I think, every other DVD and his book that he's put out. Good luck with your rotation.
