I made this purchase after reading the review and I am in agreement with other reviews. This is the best strength tape I own. The first time I used the tape, I fell short of completing the end (abs) because I was so drained but I pushed the next time and am doing better. (what do you want from me, I'm 51 years old!) I will finish next time just in case their is a chance I will ever look like the instructor.

The other participants in the video are also serious about their workout. They are all shapes and sizes and use various weights.

The workout itself is never boring. I found it fun to use and let me warn ya - you will be sore for a few days but feeling very good about yourself. I recommend this tape to people who are ready to move on to the next fitness plateau.

Instructor Comments:
Wow- this woman is seriously in to the workout. The first time I used the video, I felt she was probably one of the most motivating instructors I have on tape. Cathe motivates me to go on when I don't think I can do one more rep.
