 Great for Beginners June 7, 2008

I think this is a good intro into strength training. I am up to level 2 and I am enjoying it. I can actually see the results. If you are just starting your weight loss journey like I am, then this is perfect. If you are a pro athlete, then your not going to get much out of this.

I really debated giving this 5 stars I decided 4 was best. I will explain why. There are 5 segments a warm up, levels 1,2,3 workouts and a cool down. I think the warm up was lacking a bit though. That can easily be solved by jogging in place for a few mintes before starting the workout. The first workout level one is instructed by Jillian and is very good but I did not think there was enough focus on the abs. It is 20 mins. long. I was not tired at all afterwards. There were basics such as squats and lunges combined with handweight exercises. It was tough but if your an advanced exerciser you may want to do level 2 and 3 after level one. Level 2 is instructed by Kim she basically does a 10 mintue segment that most of the exercises are the same but a more advanced version of the ones Jillian did. Side lunges, rows the ab exericses are done sitting up with weights whch is a nice change. Level 3 is instructed by Bob. This is the one that had me sweating there are some exercises involving hand weights and then you go to the floor doing planks and holding them for a long time which gets you sweating. He also has you hold yourself up in a pushup position and that was the killer. The cool down is instructed by Jillan and is basic stretching. The reason this got 4 stars instead of five is this the last 2 workout were not long enough. I dont know may people who can workout for 10 mintues and lose weight. That can be remieded by repeating them. If your out of shape or in a plateau this will work great for you. This is supposed to be a 6 week program where for the frst 2 weeks you do level 1 the next 2 weeks you do level 2 and the last 2 weeks you do level 3. If your like me and gain weight easily and have a sluggish metabolism I suggest you do all 3 levels at every workout. This is a great dvd but like I said the last 2 workouts just are not long enough and that is why I gave it 4 stars. There needs to be a little more to each of those last 2 weokouts. I reccomend buying this and using it but just do all 3 or when you get to levels 2 and 3 I suggest you do the 10 min. segments twice.

Bought this for family members to use; and me too, although I haven't yet. Two daughters have exercised with it and found it to be a good overall workout. Only downside, for them, is limited workout of abs, their focus area. The trainers leading the exercises are good; they make the workout pleasant, with lots of encouragement. Recommend for average person looking for a decent, doable workout.
good companion to Cardio Max May 22, 2008

I just started using this DVD alternating with the Cardio Max DVD. It is a solid weights workout and the routing makes the session pass quickly. It has a fair amount of leg work (squats/lunges) done while using barbells, which replicates some of the moves in the cardio DVD. The Level 1 workout can be made harder by increasing dumbbell weight or you can do the Level 1 routine for 20 minutes followed by the Level 2 for another 10 minutes. I was very satisfied with the workout and the quality of the DVD, and thought the price was very reasonable.
For those with Comcast cable, On Demand currently has the Level 1 workouts for both the cardio and sculpting workouts available in the fitness section so you can get an idea of what the DVDs are like.
