core firing squad Archives

Moms Into Fitness’s own Lindsay Brin contacted me and asked me to do a review of her exercise videos. That was three months ago today. Now I look at her blog and I think of how wonderful she is and I want to honor her request no matter how late it might be. Why?

First check out the giveaway she is hosting: (click on the picture for more information)

Secondly, she is a motivational person. I wrote to her and told her that I suffer from depression. That I had a bout of it right after my second pregnancy. It’s normal for women to have post partum depression and we don’t need to be ashamed of it.

“And I hope your PPD is better! I’ve worked with so many women with it. Did you know it hits 1 in 4 of us? Geez-as if we don’t deal with enough as mothers! Truly, I hope you are feeling better. I’m happy that you recognized you had it.”

Thirdly, she sent me three DVD’s to review.

Core Firing Squad: Your core muscles will bounce back and redefine into a flat stomach with the CFS method. This is true for you if you were recently pregnant, going through menopause, have back pain, or haven’t exercised in a long time. By using Lindsay Brin’s method of deep abdominal and pelvic floor training, you can return to the flat stomach you used to have, as well as all of the health benefits of a strong core. These three progressive 7-8 minute workouts can be used on their own or as a part of a more comprehensive program with Lindsay’s other DVDs.

Dance Jam: Because I like to dance!

Let’s be honest, workouts can be boring. And if you’re bored, you won’t want to make exercise a regular part of your week. Join Lindsay Brin and four other former NFL dancers who hung up the white boots to become busy moms, for fun and easy hip hop moves and intense cardio for the waistline-with workouts that work with your schedule. Only have a few minutes a day? The Express Workout will keep you on track. Have a little bit longer? Keep the groove going with no complicated moves and no dance experience required. Want to really rev up your metabolism and keep the calories burning even after the workout is over? Join the Halftime Show and really get things burning. A dance party that is so much fun, you’ll forget you’re working out!

Boot Camp, because she felt I needed it to help me lose weight faster.

The only DVD of its kind with over 2 hours of exercises including 10-10 minute weight loss workouts! Choose from the 10 minute Quickstart menu, 6 core workouts or Lindsay’s 12 week program. Reshape your body, flatten your tummy and get your energy back with Pilates, Cardio, Core, Kickboxing, Plyometrics, Yoga, Mom/Baby Core Strength, Toning and more!

My opinion, even though I received these so long ago, it was right around the time that I started having problems that led to my surgery. Exercise would only have made the symptoms worse so I did as little as possible up to the time of my surgery. Do I have intentions of trying all of the DVD’s at my disposal, yes I do, as soon as the doctor says I’m clear for workouts, then I’m shedding those pounds and quickly.

Then I can update the post with reviews or just do a review on a Fitness Friday post.
