This review is for the metabolic workouts only. These workouts are well designed and provide a nice cardio challenge. Some of the metabolic workouts included weighted exercise which allows for strength workout while getting your cardio in. They all clock in under 30 minutes, especially if you exclude the ramp and the warm-up and cool-down. One is only 15 minutes -- but nevertheless challenging. Definitely lifestyle friendly.
Yet, despite my praise for the design of these workouts, I rarely reach for them. Why? Rachel talks incessantly -- I mean, she is never quiet. Not only does she talks incessantly, she repeats herself over and over again. One of her favorite lines is the after these workouts you will never go back to steady state cardio. OK. I get it. I am doing the workout. I am convert. Don't tell me ever 5 minutes. Fortunately, there is a count-down clock. It allows me to mute the TV during the rest periods and the count-down clock tells me when to unmute for the exercises, which makes the workout more bearable.
