Build & Burn is Kelly Coffey-Myers first workout system.  Building on her 30-Minutes To Fitness workouts, Kelly develop 5 workouts on 3 DVDs.  Each workout is less than 30 minutes. Each DVD comes with many premix options. Build & Burn also comes with a 7 day meal plan. I really like the set for this group of workouts.  The set is clean, crisp and bright.  I also enjoyed the music in all the workouts. I will review the workouts in a separate blog post.

Abs & Core is a compilation workout by Kelly Coffey-Meyer.  Kelly pulled six ab/core workouts from her 30-Minute To Fitness series workouts to give you a well rounded in-depth core and ab workout.  There are standing segments and floor segments. I did these workouts as add-on workouts; and I didn't remember doing any of the segments when I did the original workouts they came from.  So I think this was my first time doing all of these segments. The DVD offers the following menu options : Mix On e (33 min consist of Kickboxing, Muscle Up, & Circuit Burn) Mix Two (32 min consist of Home Gym Intervals, Muscle Definition, Weights) Kelly's Favorite Mix (33 min consist of Home Gym Intervals, Muscle Up, Muscle Definition) Premixes          Premix One (44 min, All Floor Exercises)          Premix Two (20 min, All Standing and Plank              ...

There are over three pages of premixes that mix the different segments. 2.  The music in Light Dumbbell Cardio Sculpting was a bit blah. 3.  My least favorite segment was the Yoga Flow Stretch. You are doing a variation of the sun saluation - chair planks, lunges, downdogs, cobra, child pose, - some warrior poses. 4.  I really like all the other segments a lot.  The time flew by. G...

T...
