Authorities On Fitness: Triple H & Stephanie McMahon Unleash New Workout DVDs

There’s no doubt that the leaders of the WWE’s recently-disbanded “Authority” — Stephanie McMahon and Triple H — continue aging into better shape, and sports entertainment’s power couple is bringing their workout secrets to the public this holiday season with a pair of fitness DVDs.

WWE Power Series: Triple H and WWE Fit Series: Stephanie McMahon both feature extensive workouts focusing on upper and lower body strength, as well as cardio, one can do in their living room.

WWE Power Series: Triple H follows the King of Kings through a series of exercises over a four-week workout calendar to enhance users’ strength and fitness. Among the sequences include a warm-up, two upper body routines, a lower body routine, cardio to build muscle and mobility exercises.

The routine includes:

• Warm-Up (6 minutes): Power up and prepare to sweat with moves like seal jacks and Cossack stretches to prevent injury and improve performance.
• Upper Body 1 (16 minutes): Pound out power circuits of serious strength moves like dumbbell rows and Zot curls that use progressive reps to shed inches and lay down Superstar muscle.
• Upper Body 2 (18 minutes): Develop muscle endurance with functional body weight and dumbbell exercises like high-tension planks and shoulder shockers to build both stamina and mega muscle.
• Lower Body (30 minutes): Experience muscle-mass mania with killer moves like single-leg Romanian dead lifts to improve balance, function and strength with this intense three-set system.
• Muscle-Building Cardio (12 minutes): Give those extra pounds a serious smackdown with four high-octane rounds of this cardio-strength circuit designed to pump the heart, shed fat and carve lean muscle.
• Mobility (14 minutes): Improve flexibility, reduce soreness and recover from workouts faster with DeFranco’s signature Agile 8 series of stretches and mobility drills.

In WWE Fit Series: Stephanie McMahon, the mother-of-three shows off the moves that helped her develop a sexy and sculpted look synonymous with the WWE Diva division.

The four-week routine is focused on burning fat while building strength, with a gauntlet of exercises that focus on upper body, lower body, abs/core exercises, cardio and flexibility.

The routine includes:

• Upper Body (14 minutes): Strut your stuff with this powerful strength circuit that uses bodyweight, dumbbells and progressive reps to sculpt sexy arms, defined shoulders and a gorgeous back.
• Lower Body (15 minutes): Tone, tighten and turn heads with butt-blasting rounds of a super circuit that tackles your trouble zones while increasing muscular strength and endurance.
• Abs/Core (12 minutes): Get tough and get ripped with Tabata-style circuits (4 moves/4 minutes) that challenge core strength and function to trim inches and shred strong, sexy abs.
• Cardio (17 minutes): Incinerate fat and calories with two heart-pumping circuits of fierce calisthenics like mountain climbers and T-plank rotations to improve endurance and drop pounds.
• Flexibility (7 minutes): Improve flexibility, reduce soreness and recover faster with an essential series of yoga poses and mobility moves that help create long, lean and limber muscle.

Both videos — which feature custom workout capabilities and music-only options — require a set of light-to-heavy dumbbells. Both DVDs, crafted with help from strength and conditioning expert Joe DeFranco, were filmed at WWE’s Performance Center based in Orlando, Fla.
