This is a 1997 IDEA video which as far as I know, you can only get on Keli Roberts' website.

At first glance, this video looks like it will be no great shakes. The set is nothing special. It is just Keli, low music and a rather strange exerbar with tubing attached to it. No bells or whistles. This is the kind of workout to do when you don't particularly care to get jazzed. You just want to get to it.

That being said, it was a very efficient and effective workout. With every move, Keli explains form, whether you are using the exerbar or regular dumbbells (what I used). About the first three quarters of the workout is mainly upper body with functional moves. The last quarter are stability ab exercises which are very intense! The abs that Keli does in 10 Minute Solution Kickbox Bootcamp and QuickFix Pilates Abs are similar to this, but in my opinion, the abs in this video are even tougher! I suspect this will be in my rotation for some time as I am personally more interested in toning my arms and abs right now than anywhere else.

So again, if you get the DVD and you're taken aback by the production quality and the exerbar, give it a chance anway. You may be pleasantly surprised.

Instructor Comments:
Keli Roberts is one of the best video instructors out there in my opinion, specializing in strengthwork, stability work, step and kickboxing. She is a beautiful woman with a great Australian accent. Not only a good teacher, but fun to watch while you work out.
