Check out what’s new from Acacia
Just in time for Summer bathing suit season, award-winning fitness DVD distributor Acacia offers workouts from diverse disciplines to help exercisers fulfill any fitness goal – no matter how how hot you want to be. Six pack abs here I come!
I received these titles to review encompassing some of the season’s finest workouts:
Shiva Rea: Yoga in Greece Filmed against the spectacular backdrop of the Greek Island of Santorini, Shiva Rea: Yoga in Greece features seven 20-minute practices of energizing solar and grounding lunar sequences, plus the customizable Yoga Matrix, which offers exercisers endless options to create longer workouts.
The Chief Blonde Remarks:I could hardly focus on this video due to the gorgeous setting. I do love Yoga, so this video was probably my favorite of the three reviewed today. Shiva is truly a master at what she does, certainly deserving her world-renowned status. You get 3 hours of different meditation + yoga on this one DVD. $9.99
Quick Fit Want to get fit and strong, but don’t have time to exercise? Can you find five minutes? Fitness expert and Today show regular Andrea Metcalf leads 30 fast, effective five minute workouts that tone, condition, burn calories, melt fat, boost metabolism, and build lean muscle. Choose from a mix of cardio, strength, and Pilates. Do what you want for as long as you need; mix-and-match to target trouble spots. $19.99
The Chief Blonde Remarks: I am loving this video because I can so as little or as much as I want. I like that Pilates is included.
Not Extreme, Not Insane, Just R.I.P.P.E.D: Fitness power couple TERRY and TINA SHORTER created the incredibly effective, high-intensity workout system R.I.P.P.E.D (Resistance, Intervals, Power, Plyometrics, Endurance and Diet and nutrition). Franchised to more than 8,500 fitness professionals across the country and approved by the American Council on Exercise, this safe, effective, interval-training system delivers amazing results with a scientifically proven, plateau-proof fitness formula to help shape and tone everybody. In Total Body Challenge’s five workout segments, plus a warm-up and cool down, you’ll burn more than 700 calories in just 48 minutes. Terry and Tina also sing and compose all the original music. $16.99
The Chief Blonde Remarks: While this workout video is a little beyond me at this point, I hope to work up to it. I’d love to be able to get this cardio going and to burn 700 calories in 48 minutes. Take a look at this quick video clip, to see how much fun it looks.

I would pick Dance Fit Hip Hop because I have been doing Zumba for 2 years and the instructor teaches it in hip hop fashion. She is moving to another state 🙁
I’d really like Exhale: Core Fusion Bootcamp!
Not only does it look to be quite good and fun, but it’s one my husband would enjoy as well so that we can do it together.
I’d choose Quick Fit because I want fast results.
I am not one to choose, as this would be a gift for my sister.

Exhale Core Fusion: Barre Basics for Beginners…I’d like to try a Barre workout.
Hi! I couldn’t get the comment box on Youtube to work, but I did watch your video as I am subscribed to you on Youtube! I love the partybeans! My family has a very similar recipe that we’ve called “Cowboy Beans” for years! We love them and you are right- quick and easy and they are always gone at the end of a get together! Great video post!
I would pick Pilates for Beginners. I have always wanted to try pilates, but never found the opportunity and this looks like a great way to start!
The Yoga DVD!
I would try Exhale Core Fusion Lean & Toned. I just recently found out from my dr that my flexibility with my body is good, it’s just my tone and muscles are weak. So I think this would help get me back into shape. I was told I need core muscle training so we shall see.
I would love to try Beautiful Belly with Hemalayaa because it’s set to Bollywood music. That sounds really fun.
I would like to try Lisa Whelchel’s Everyday Workouts for Everday Women
If I could pick any workout DVD from Acacia Fitness I would pick Exhale Core Fusion: Barre Basics for Beginners because I have several of the DVDs in this series and I really enjoy them.
I would LOVE this! the Dance and be fit dvd looks great on their site! 🙂
I want to try Yoga to the rescue. I broke my neck so my mobility is limited. I either need to be in water or Yoga works too.
Yoga in Greece because I love yoga and I have not done yoga in a while
