I own over 100 videos, and this is the most complete weight video that I own. There are 4 exercises for each body part, and with each exercise, there are 3 sets of reps. The first volume of this video was pulled from Vol. 2 so there are no editing mistakes with this video. It is all here.

This video has two 40 minute workouts. The first is upper body, and the second is lower, plus abs. The set is a pretty shade of teal, with blue, some hot pink behind glass blocks. There are two women who work out with her, that have used the book and lost weight. The music is varied, sometimes I like it, other times I just don't notice it much. Each person has a weight bench. I use a step, however, I can't change the incline as fast as I could with a weight bench. Fortunately for me, I have two yoga bolsters which I place in a T to create an incline. That way I have my flat step, and incline to move back and forth through the chest work, which is all together.

The upper body workout makes my arms feel like noodles when I am done! The only other video, that I had to make me feel like that was Karen Voight's Great Weighted Workout. This is a high rep, fast paced workout. The weights she suggests are 8, 5 and 3 pounds. For the shoulder work, she suggests all sets using 3 pounds. She was not an exaggeration. Whoa! You start, the other upper body parts, with your lightest weight for 12 reps, medium for 10, then your heaviest for the last 8. You do all your 4 body part exercises in a row, to really fatigue the muscle.

The lower body contains floor work without weights, so you do all 3 sets with 15 reps each. There are also squats, lunges, sissy squats, hamstring curls with a dumbell, and more before that. There is more calf work than most videos I have seen, as well. I feel great after doing either segment of this video. I highly recommend it. I give it an A.
