This is a fun 60 minute circuit routine that alternates strength segments with shorter (2-4 minutes)cardio segments which are choreographically doable for a dunce like myself. They did a good job of keeping my heart rate up. The weight segments were nice, generally 2 sets of 12 and you can go heavier because of this. What I liked is that the second set of exercises was most often something different from the first set. I got this at a thrift store for 99 cents and for me it's a keeper. I really like it!

Several different modifications are shown, which I really like. I believe that is the purpose for background exercisers. :)

Overall score, A.

Instructor Comments:
Kathy is more low key in this workout than she is in most of her others. She is in great shape, but wears low cut workout pants which do not flatter her figure. (I'm not sure they flatter anybody's!!)
