Review: Rockin Body performed by Shaun T
A few months ago, I bought a Groupon deal of The Rockin’ Body workout sale, what was supposed to be seven dvds, a calendar of workouts and a cookbook. What I got a few weeks later, was 2 dvds, a workout calendar and a tiny cookbooklet . Was I surprised how little actually showed up.…… Continue reading Review: Rockin Body performed by Shaun T
