Best Workouts on Exercise TV
Exercise TV is pretty much the only reason I've been able to lose some weight and keep it off. I want to make sure though that I am doing the best workouts on there. I have a fitbit - a podometer of sorts- it is not a heart rate monitor and it calculates that Cindy Whitmarsh's 30 min Less is More cardio workout burns…
