The Exercise DVD I've Been Waiting For
No weights; no jumping around; not a lot of space needed. You don't even need to wear your shoes. Three different levels at about 20 minutes each make this exercise program so do-able. The exercises tone, strengthen and stretch you and make you feel so good. It may be a little "campy" for some - but stick with it. You will feel 100% better in less than two weeks.
I absolutely love it.

everything you haven't been doing in your current workout
We all pretty much know that we should be doing cardio, weight training, core training and stretching- but so many of us don't- I have only had this DVD for a few days now, and have only done the beginner workout so far- but it is everything that I have been leaving out of my workouts- even though I was trained not to skip stretching. The simple, unadorned workout focusses on stretching and core strengthening- these areas that are getting weaker now that I am in my 30s. I manage to do my cardio and my weight training on my own but I never stretch. I am pretty out of shape but even I can do most of the exercises (I have never been able to do a standing quad stretch). The workout works for me because Joel miscounts just as my old trainer does- just enough for you to want to strangle him a little-which makes me smile as it makes the workout feel more personal somehow, if you want cardio or fancy choreography then this is not for you- if you want a simple, clear effective routine, I highly recommend this dvd.

No-Frills, Fun But Short Workout
If you only have 20 minutes to work out, this is the way to go. It's a no-frills quickie workout that really does hit all the major muscle groups. If you are into Denise Austin-type DVD's or fad workouts, you will not appreciate this one. This has no fancy production, choreography, too-buff "students", or funky music--just basic moves given in a straightforward manner with enough repetition to burn some.
