i just got this workout on Amazon, and now i own all of the core secrets DVDs.

the 2 reviews posted so far provide a good description, and i just want to add my thoughts.

make sure you choose "intro and workout" instead of choosing "workout" because the already brief warm up is included in the intro! i had to skip back to get the warm up.

another caution is when he does the second side of the lying oblique work, he quits too soon. i added a few more reps. while Gunnar explains the next move, you can get a head start and squeeze in a few more reps.

music is instrumental rock, and almost reminded me of P90x's music.

there's 4 cast members, including Madison who's been in many workouts of Gunnar's and others like Jillian Michaels. Amy Dixon is also a cast member. i love madison - always smiling and showing good form.

Instructor Comments:
monotone and no nonsense, and i'm OK w/that. Gunnar always makes me feel worked but not wiped out.
