This workout has already been reviewed and talked about to no end. I will just give my impressions after doing this workout several times.

This is a 40 minute strength workout. Which is short for total body strength training. I am used to Cathe, Gin, and Jari. Cathe being my main instructor for strength training workouts.

Equipment needed: plate-loaded bar, stability ball, several dumbbells, step and mat.

The set of this workout looks like a room in a house. Well lit and open with windows. But small. And too many exercisers made the room look smaller. This would not have upset me if I felt the workout was a good workout.

I found the exercisers to be working hard and cheerful. Amy didn't woo hoo as much as I thought she would from other people's comments. I felt she was working hard and her voice was pleasant.

After doing this workout the first time I felt that my upper body didn't get a full workout. So I ended up having to do one of my other upper body only strength workouts after it. This upset me.

I gave this workout a few more times just to see if I felt the same about the lack of upper body work. Everytime I realized that this workout lacks sufficient upper body work. This was a disappointing revelation.

Conclusion: I was disappointed with this workout. I feel this workout lacks enough upper body work to be useful to me. I cannot see myself doing this workout one more time even for the lower body work. I have better lower body workouts to choose from.

I am grateful I didn't pay full price or Amy's price for this one. I will sell this one on Ebay.

It is with great regret I had this experience because I heard so many good things about Amy and I waited so long to be able to get this workout and do it.



Instructor Comments:
Amy is pleasant and very energetic.
