I have been enjoying the FitPrime workouts lately. They are feel good workouts. Currently, I am doing one heavy (machine) TB machine workout, two StrEndurance workouts and two FitPrimes a week. My muscular imbalances, caused by shortened hipflexors due to lots of walking workouts(Jessica and Leslie seven days a week) on top of walking at my job, are almost all recovered. For one year I did only walking and very basic strength workouts; this kept me healthy (blood work, blood pressure, stress level) but my muscular system did not appreciate it.
Most of Leslie's and Jessica's workouts are standing. It is very important to practice getting up and down off the floor. |

Doing bridges 10 reps for 3 sets, holding for 5 seconds several times a day for the first week made the biggest difference in my hipflexor flexibility. |

Wow, the timing of this thread is great for me! I've been doing some classic Firms but their datedness (plus overfamiliarity) has been getting to me a little, lol.
I have an assortment of KBs and FPs, including some originals from Anna Benson. most of which I've only tried once or never even done even though I loved the music. I bet I'd appreciate them much more now, especially if they're joint-friendly. I have: Original (Anna Benson): - Floor Burn - Steamin' Cardio - Fast Cheetah - From the Ground Up/Crunch Time (combo DVD w/both) - G-Force WHFN - FP Metaboost - FP Flex Posture - FP Lean - KB Push Pull - KB Steamin' Cardio - KB Strong Bear Plus I have an assortment of 2-disc 'quickie' compilations I got for busy mornings but are still in shrink <sigh>. Not exactly sure how many *distinct* routines they offer but this is according to the back covers: - QuickStart 4 Day Quickie (8 15m workouts) - QuickStart 4 Day 4 Way Mini Fusion (16 workouts) - 6 Day Trainer 6 Day Slam (18 20m workouts) I think I'm certainly set to go for a rotation but, in true vidiot FOMO fashion, are there any must-have favorite(s) I'm missing (or are any of these duds to be avoided)?
