WWE Power Series:Triple H
 photo disclaimer2_zps8af35ac1.jpg

About the DVD
Get a ripped, buff body with this heart-pounding hard-core workout inspired by WWE training techniques, includes 4-week workout plan. Created by world-renowned coach Joe DeFranco and featuring exercises routine used by WWE Stars.





My Take on the DVD
WOW...this workout is one that will kick you to the curb. I tried it out myself and even though I see myself as a pretty fit guy, this one is definitely one that will wear you out (in a good way) and build you up to achieve the results that you want. Though I do not believe that I will ever look like Triple H, I can say that he does get you physically active and gets you working hard in this DVD too!

My Take on the DVD
This was a workout DVD that really got me sweating! I really liked the differing levels of challenge on this as it allows you - wherever you are starting to be able to either jump in completely or slowly. Realize though that this DVD will challenge you and will make you work for the outcomes that you want, but it is worth it. Also, the exercises were fun and varied which kept my interest as well. 

I thought Chris Powell did a great job and if the results of some of the people using this DVD are any indication, you can definitely slim down by staying with the program and watching what you are eating. 

I truly am enjoying this DVD and the exercises within, and recommend it to others as well as a great addition to your own workout!

DVD Review - The Biggest Loser Power X-Train

About the DVD Throw out your excuses and get into a heart-thumping exercise routine when Lionsgate Home Entertainment releases The Biggest Loser: 30-Day Power X-Train on DVD, Digital Download and On Demand on December 4. Shed pounds and burn mega calories with the Power X-Train regimen and you will feel better than ever. The latest in “The Biggest Loser” home entertainment line, The Biggest Loser: 30-Day Power X-Train DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $14.98.

Take it up a notch with the fat-burning moves in 30-Day Power X-Train! You’ve seen contestants drop pounds on NBC’s hit series, “The Biggest Loser,” and now it’s your turn! Using cross-training and core movements, you’re going to shed unwanted pounds, burn maximum calories and tone and tighten your legs, abs and arms for a total body workout. Get ready to sweat with trainers Bob Harper and Dolvett Quince as they challenge every muscle in your body.

My Take on the DVD
This is not an easy routine, it will challenge you daily and make you really get back into shape in no time flat. I am the type of person that gets bored easily with DVD workouts, but this DVD and the episodes within it kept me engaged and motivated to keep coming back for more. I have been finding that even though I have been using this now for a few days I am still getting winded and tired after every workout (and I am not in the worst of shape). One of the things that I liked was that the videos are short, but pack a ton into the time that you have to workout. One other thing that I will add is that I used to use more intense workouts that were harder on my body and I find that I am getting just as much of a workout with this without the constant pressure on my body (which is a nice change).

My Take on the DVD
This is a workout DVD that really put me through the paces! Ab workouts are definitely something that I am always looking for as I get older, and this one did not disappoint. I do have to say that the first few times I did it, I was in a bit of pain afterward due to using muscle groups that I do not always use, but after that it started to get better and I started to see more definition (which is what I was hoping for). I am now using this along with a few other programs and it is a nice way to mix it up and bring in a workout that will challenge you and get you ready for the next phase in your workout routine.

Product Review - Mancore

The Mancore 3-Pack, endorsed by Tampa Bay Buccaneers legend Mike Alstott, is a weight loss success pack customized towards men ages 30-55 who want to increase muscle mass, strength and energy, as well as burn fat and improve body composition.

The program contains three complementary products:



  • Total Fat Burn capsules formulated with green coffee bean extract and green tea extract to help improve body composition, boost metabolism and increase energy.


  • Testosterone Replenish capsules to enhance libido and stamina and replenish youthful hormones with a blend of testosterone support ingredients, including DHEA.




  • HGH Night Spray taken before bedtime to increase growth hormone levels by up to 157% and improve sleep quality with its key ingredient, melatonin.


Between raising a family and going to work, there are only so many hours in a day and exercise tends to take a back seat. The Mancore 3-Pack by Complete Nutrition can help you stay physically fit while still living your full schedule. Click here to see all Mancore products.

My Take on the Products
I am always looking for supplements that will help my body to be able to replenish the things that I am needing on a day-to-day basis, but him not getting from the foods that I eat. What I loved about the three items that you see above or that they are specifically formulated for men and assist men in helping in muscle growth as well as assisting with your hormone levels which as you get older begin to change. I found that each of these products worked quite well and did not feel any side effects and using them. I found that each did provide health benefits in their own way and that after taking them for about a week I was feeling much better physically and mentally. All in all I was very impressed with the results of trying these products and I would highly recommend these to a better looking for products that will help them with their own hormone levels as well as upping their metabolism and daily energy.

My Take on the Program
I was a bit leery at first on whether this program would work, especially with only a 2lb medicine ball, but I gave it a shot and tried out the workout none-the-less. I have to say that I was quite impressed with the overall workout, After my first workout, my core muscles were aching and I could tell that this would continue for a while until I got used to the four main exercise routines that the program encourages.


I also liked the fact that the workout is low impact. With the fact that I had surgery on my knee a few months back I am still working on getting my knee stronger and thus cannot head back to the P90x that I was doing prior to the torn meniscus, so this was a great exercise routine to get me active in cardio again without the pain I was having on the P90x.


So if you are looking for a great, inexpensive cardio routine, check out the Melt it Off program today!
