The Biggest Loser's Jillian Michaels Rip 60 Fitness DVD Set for $136.25 (33% Off!)

The Biggest Loser's
Jillian Michaels Rip:60™ System



Rip:60™ promises to give you a total-body transformation. Featuring revolutionary rotating straps, 12 workout DVDs and a nutrition guide, this program combines the most advanced knowledge to deliver unbeatable results in just 60 days. Join MMA World Champion Georges St. Pierre and TV trainer Jillian Michaels and get ripped!

Sammy would be proud of you
Jillian Michaels Rip 60 Fitness DVD Set - 33% Off!


Right now, Amazon.com has the Jillian Michaels Rip 60 Fitness DVD Set for $136.25. With free shipping, that's $63 off and the lowest total price out there by far. It includes a pair of workout straps, eight workout DVDs, and four bonus DVDs.

Get in the best shape of your life in only 60 days with the complete Rip:60 fitness system. Bundled with a pair of Rip:60 straps, eight workout DVDs, four bonus DVDs, a 60-day nutrition guide, a wall chart, and a travel bag, the system comes with everything you need to build muscles, boost your explosiveness, and get in incredible shape.

The Rip:60 system is designed to put your body in the perfect position to get the most explosive results. Research has shown that as we age, we lose some muscle movements. The Rip:60 reverses this trend by re-introducing you to old movements and teaching you new ones, training your body to use all of its muscles again. The system starts with the pair of Rip:60 straps, which use gravity and your bodyweight in a calibrated regimen to get you lean, strong, ripped, and completely transformed. Made of aircraft-grade aluminum and heavy-duty nylon, the straps--which support up to 600 pounds--hook securely to any door, fence, tree, or playground bar. The next step is to follow the scientifically designed eight-week progression of movements, each week illustrated in a single DVD. Weeks one through four focus on strength, teaching you the right moves to increase your strength and endurance. Weeks five through eight target your overall power, with explosive moves that maximize muscle activation.

The first DVD, titled Wake Up Your Body, prepares you for the upcoming workouts. DVDs two and three amp up the intensity, with a Hyper Burn workout that focuses on stability and endurance and a Turn and Burn workout that introduces longer sets for added stamina. During week four, you'll Recharge using yoga and tai chi.

Week five helps you Build It Up--the beginning of the muscle growth phase. You'll be introduced to heavier weights to prepare your body for more power. During week six's Power and Strength, you'll start focusing on power moves, bringing in faster movements and more reps. In Pedal to the Metal, you'll use the moves from week six and integrated them into longer reps still. Finally, you'll bring it all together in The Peak, the week-eight workout that combines the strength, power, and endurance you've gained and evaluates it against a timed assessment.

Rip:60 also includes four bonus DVDs. In Jillian Michaels Workout DVD, you'll learn to lose weight with America's Toughest Trainer, who runs you through a complete total-body workout. The Georges St. Pierre Workout DVD teaches you the signature moves of an MMA fighter, creating extreme muscle explosion and unbelievable results. The Power Yoga Workout DVD is all about lengthening and strengthening, teaching you a number of moves to improve your overall balance and physical well-being. The DVD helps you recover after your eight-week body transformation. The final Runners Workout DVD boosts your running training by strengthening your stabilizer muscles.

In addition to the straps and workout DVDs, the Rip:60 System comes with a 60-day nutrition guide full of delicious, healthy, easy-to-prepare recipes that go hand-in-hand with your workout plan. To improve your form, you can turn to the included wall chart exercise guide, which provides step-by-step instructions on specific exercises. Finishing off the system is a nylon travel bag, which holds the entire Rip:60 System in an easy-to-carry design.

Storage is so cheap these days...


via dealmac.com: Amazon offers the OEM Western Digital Caviar Green 1.5TB Serial ATA 3Gb/s Internal Hard Drive, model no. WD15EARS, for $54.99. (newegg has it for the same price.) With Amazon's free shipping, that's $0.04/GB and tied with our mention from last week as the cheapest Western Digital 1.5TB SATA internal hard drive we've seen. (It's a current low by $11; we've seen similar WD drives of this capacity for close to $80 recently.) This "green" 3.5" drive purportedly consumes less power compared to other models and features a 64MB cache.

For when it's sold out at woot: Same camera, Panasonic Lumix DMC-S1 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom with 2.7-Inch LCD, at Amazon for $92

but if I were in the market for a "cheap but better than entry level" Lumix, I'd more likely go with this one, Panasonic DMC-FH25K 16.1MP Digital Camera with 8x Wide Angle Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7 inch LCD (Black), for $129

but I'm not, however. as I am in love with my new Lumix DMC-ZS6 that I got from woot last month. Thanks, woot!

50% Off Audio Technica ATLP120 Pro Turntable with USB

Audio Technica ATLP120
Professional Turntable with USB
Half Off!


List Price:$429.00
Price:$214.17 + FREE Shipping
You Save:$214.83 (50%)

Product Description

The Audio Technica AT-LP120 USB features a high-torque direct-drive motor for quick start-ups and a selectable internal stereo phono pre-amplifier that allows the turntable to plug directly to computers and other components with no dedicated turntable input. With a dedicated USB output, interfacing with your computer has never been easier. This is the all-in-one solutions for archiving or transferring your LP collection directly to your computer. Other key features include: forward and reverse play capability; cast aluminum platter with slip mat and a start/stop button with remote start/stop input; three speeds 33/45/78; selectable high-accuracy quartz-controlled pitch lock and pitch change slider control with +/-10% or +/-20% adjustment ranges; and removable hinged dust cover. A replaceable Audio-Technica ATP-2 cartridge is included.
If making high quality 24 bit FLAC vinyl rips is what you want to be doing, this turntable is more than respectable, and this is a pretty damn good deal on a new one (read as: why keep looking for a used record player on craigslist when this fine turntable is available at a price like this?).
If you're into doing, you know, other stuff with your turntable, check this review:
"I've had one for several months now and I just gotta say, its solid. I started DJing about a year ago and this is a great turntable to learn to scratch on. Any review that features a DJ that grew up on Technics 1200s all say its pretty close to the real thing. Very solid platter to scratch on, high torque motor. The thing is definitely inspired by the Technics. On off switch, needle arm, buttons, are all the same. Plus some extras like quarts, reverse, and 78rpm.

If you got the money to drop on a pair of 1200s, go for it. If not, you can get a pair of these AND a mixer for around $500. Not to shabby at all. My plan is to learn up on true vinyl and DVS. Midi is great, but...I like returning to the roots of DJ'ing."

iPad2 Accessories - Charger + Bad Elf GPS Receiver for iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iPad2

Even though it's been a while since I purchased the iPad, accessories weren't something I really gave much thought to until I was on the vacation I just got back from. Turns out this one is pretty awesome...

Bad Elf GPS Receiver for iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iPad2 (66-channel, SBAS/WAAS, 10Hz)

"Purchased this unit to add GPS to my iPad, and also to be able to use GPS when my iPhone 4 is in airplane mode.

This product works great, exactly as described. You simply plug the unit into the iPad/iPhone/iTouch and it adds native GPS support to every app. I can't emphasize that enough, the apps you already own work great with it, they don't need to be updated at all to work.

The Bad Elf gps collects and keeps an atlas of the GPS satellites on board the unit, so even from a cold start it finds it's position very quickly. This is a high performance GPS too, it works at altitude in a jet aircraft just fine, even at 35,000' at 500 mph, when the native iPhone 4 GPS couldn't even find it's position. (Refer to any airline's policies on portable electronic equipment before operating any iDevice inflight, but I'm sure you knew that.)

I am recommending this product to anyone who wants to add GPS to their apple devices, or those who change devices every year, as this device can transfer as newer iPads & iPod touches enter the market."


Product Description

The Bad Elf GPS receiver plugs into the 30-pin dock connector on the iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iPad2, providing high performance GPS data to ALL location-based iOS applications in the App Store. This Apple-approved accessory allows owners of iOS devices without an integrated GPS receiver (original iPhone, all iPod touch devices, the iPad Wi-Fi and iPad2 Wi-Fi) to use mapping, navigation, geocaching, golf range-finding, and other location-based apps.

This is one of the only Apple-authorized GPS accessories on the market that works with the iPad Wi-Fi and iPad2 Wi-Fi today!

Unlike most GPS cradles and car kits, this accessory is compatible with the form-factor of all past/current/future iOS devices, and allows you to continue using your favorite case as long as it does not block the 30-pin dock connector.

See the Bad Elf website for a list of apps that have good "offline" support and do not require a continuous Internet connection to work. In fact, users/developers are encouraged to give feedback and submit new apps that work well.

This accessory can use the Assisted GPS data provided by iOS when a network connection is available - but does not require it. The MTK chipset is known for its fast GPS lock times with or without this data.

*Update: also, I did pick up one of these dual car chargers below. Essential.


Scosche reVIVE II Dual USB Car Charger for iPad

The reVIVE II from Scosche can easily charge most USB powered devices including your iPad, iPod, iPhone, Blackberry, Android, cellular phones, MP3 players, PDAs and more. This charger allows for two of your devices to be simultaneously charged while utilizing only one of your cars valuable 12v DC power sockets (my Audi A4 only has one, a cigarette lighter in the dashboard. My old Audi 5000 had two just for the back seats - what's up with that?). The dual port interface uses your existing USB cables to let you plug in and get charged--one is a 2.1 Amp USB port for charging your iPad, and the other a 1 Amp port for charging all those other devices quickly and efficiently.
