Disclaimer: I received this DVD for free from the instructor.

I got Series 1 because it was only 30 minutes and right now that is a great length for me.

Setting: outdoors, poolside.
I love outdoor workouts.

I thought the production was very good. Better than I had expected.

DVD comes in a jewel case.

No music, but I didn't miss it. I liked the sounds of nature.

Barry is working out with Shelly. She shows the beginner modifications. Barry shows the more advanced version.

Break-Down of Workout:

Warm-Up (4 mins.) - Squat/curl/press with medicine ball; lunge & reach w/ med. ball.

Fitness Tip

~Bicep Curls
~Shoulder Presses
~Squats
~Tricep Kickbacks

Cardio (1 minute)

~Stationary Lunges
~Chest Press
~Side Lateral Raise
~Front Raise with Squats

Circuit is repeated two more times.

Cool-down:(1 minute) - Stretches

Barry uses a stability ball for a couple of exercises. It is optional, but I like using my ball.

I have done this workout twice since I received it. Overall, I really like it. I like Barry. I like the length of the workout. I feel that it covers all the major muscle groups. I'm interested in Series 2, because I would like an even more thorough workout for times when I can workout longer.

The only things that I found that I would have changed is add ab work (some of the exercises engaged the core, so I thought that might be why they were missing) and a longer, more thorough stretch. I know that the stretch was probably shortened due to time constraints.

I also liked that there wasn't alot of compound moves.

Nice addition to my collection. I plan on using it often.

Instructor Comments:
I liked him. Very professional. Great tips and form pointers. Reminded me of a very mild Tony Little, which is a good thing.
