This tape has already been discussed and praised at length, but I couldn't hold myself back from adding yet another good review!

Yes, this is an incredibly difficult tape, and yes, you will be amazed at Gin's ability to talk throughout the workout. But what I really love about it is the interval structure: you are never doing one move long enough to get truly sick and tired of it. Although I adore Cathe Friedrich, sometimes she repeats combinations so many times that I just want to say "Enough already! I'm tired and I need a shower!"

Another interesting thing about this tape is that each move, when taken individually, is not that difficult. For example, I think most people can do at least one set of 180 degree power lunges - it's when you do them for a full minute that it starts to get challenging.

I also really like how she gives you two minute rest periods - enough time to get a sip of water. I really dislike videos that don't give you enough time to rehydrate, something that Gin has been guilty of in the past (Power Workout).

All in all, this one get's an A from me.
