One Minute Workout

Minna Lessig
Year Released: 2006

Categories: Total Body Workouts


I sort of have a love/hate relationship with this DVD.

I like Minna as an instructor. I like the ability to program what areas you want to work at what time. Most of the exercises are pretty good. I would say they are adjustable in intensity with the length of time and the weight load. For example, today I did 20 minutes of upper body with 12 and 8 pound weights and was fairly fatigued at the end.

What makes me curse the TV set: Getting up and down is half of the workout practically, which is tiresome to do for a long length of time. But what really annoys me is when I program 8 minutes of ab work and get the same ab exercise of side curls 5 times out of 8 minutes! The DVD just seems to be repeating stuff unnecessarily. True, you can just go on to a new exercise, but that eats up time fiddling with the remote which sort of defeats the purpose of a One Minute Workout.

Truly a mixed review.

Instructor Comments:
Minna is pleasant, concise and very clear with her instructions to form.
