Nice try, but missed the mark. This is a true circuit workout with short bursts of cardio followed by strength moves. One major problem with it is that Tom goes from cardio right to abs on the floor. I thought this was considered a big no-no, and at any rate, I did not find it particularly comfortable to do.
I modify it when doing it, adding more cardio when he is doing abs. Tom tells you to choose your own cardio, throwing out several suggestions. He then proceeds to do the same cardio over and over-- a sort of jogging side to side shuffle. I usually do something like speed skaters, go up and down my high step, or do scissor steps.
You have seen all the strength moves before-- nothing fancy. That is ok with me. One problem, in my opinion is that htere are far too many lunges. Sometimes I did squats or step ups instead. I usually used weights, something Mr. Holland did not do with the lower body moves.
The set is white, white, white. The music is well, there. I guess. Tom Holland does not come across as particularly charming and is one of those men for whom body waxing comprises part of their fitness routine.
