As far as my preference in Firm strength workouts go, I prefer mine slow and heavy. I have traded this one and reaqcuired it about 4 times and I will probably let it go one of these days. I love Tracie Long and rank her among my favorite instructors, but for some reason, the ballroom segments that I enjoy in Tortoise, annoy me in Hare. The energy I feel when I do Tortoise is drained from me in Hare.

Tracie Long is her usual wonderful slf and she is brilliant as always. It is filmed on the old Mansion set with the large class.The workout uses a large variety of equipment, including the barbell, short box (for ballroom aerobics) and Tall box, as well as dumbbells. It is a fast and light weighted workout, although I don't even really consider it to be too fast-paced.

Every now and then I wil get a craving to do this one, but not often enough to keep it around. When I want a Tracie fix, I always have Maximum Body Shaping and Tortoise...this tape might be for some people, but not me.
