Linda, I think I will try Lauren's Kettlebell Lightning again. I used to love her workouts then stopped doing kettlebells because of a back injury. I will preview it before I do it though to make sure I can handle it!
The other day I did Linda Woolridge's Lockdown Madness Mostly Lower workout. I really liked this. It was legs, glutes and abs. I am getting tired of her workouts that work just the inner thighs or just the outer thighs etc. This one was a perfect mix of lower body moves and tough but not too tough. Definitely a keeper! |

Today I did a new for me Linda Woolridge download from her Ankle Weight Series-Outer thighs and Glutes. My back was sore from two days of Shovel max so I didn't think I would get far, but I did the whole 40+ minutes of it and I actually felt great afterwards. It also worked the quads and to a certain extent hamstrings so it was a more comprehensive lower body workout than advertised.
I also did a short lower ab workout from Caroline Girvan's YT channel. |

I have been wary of injury so I have spent a TON of time reading books and watching her videos on youtube to make sure I'm getting the hinge exactly right. In some ways, kettlebells remind me of barre and pilates. There is so much you need to do to pay attention to form, listen to your body, to get the most out of the exercise, and stay away from injury.

Tore the wrapper off of this dvd, Cathe's Stretch Max.
I got this at Christmas and was ready to be disappointed. In the back of my mind remembering people not liking this workout and balking at the title. I honestly don't know why. The ball workout is exactly what I wanted. The stretch band workout was nice. The no equipment is not likely one I will do in it's entirety, but the second half floor portion would make for a good longer cooldown. Maybe it's because I didn't start with the no equipment workout? Mentally comparing this one to Perfect Flow and really think I will use Stretch Max more.

The Garden section of Rodney's Yoga for Meditation/Yoga and Meditation is all yoga, done seated in or with a foot on a chair. It is introduced as a preparation for seated meditation. It's a nice 10-12 minute hip opening sequence that gets everything from my midback down nicely loosened up. I frequently do it before bed. I haven't looked at the other sections of the DVD for ages, but I remember all of them being short meditation preps or a presentation on seated postures for meditation, but no actual meditation sections. It's all filmed in Yosemite and Garden is in a field with glimpses of El Capitan. There are multiple covers with slightly different titles for this DVD and the Garden section is on at least one DVD with actual guided meditations - Daily Meditation with AM and PM guided meditation by Rodney (AM) and Maritza (PM).
