The Method: All in One Workout

Jennifer Kries, Lakey Evans, Alexandra Mckechnie
Year Released: 1997

Categories: Circuit Training (cardio and weights) , Pilates/Core Strength


I found the warm up boring and the dance routine to be a bit too dancy, although I plan to give it another shot. However, I loved the ab workout. I don't usually like mind/body type workouts like yoga and tai chi because unless I work up a sweat or lift some heavy weights I don't feel as if I got a good workout. This workout I felt. I liked it so much I bought the tape (I had borrowed this one from the library) and I also bought The Method Toning tape, which I like even more. I have been a Firm believer for years, but now Tracy Long has some competition as my favorite video instructor. Done with precision and concentration these exercises rock, but to tell the truth I may return the All In One Workout (since I haven't yet opened my own copy) and just keep the Method Toning tape.

Instructor Comments:
I like the instructors, especially Jenniefer Kries. She has a calm no-nonsense approach which I enjoy. Bubbly instructors and extraneous chatter really bug me in a workout video.
