Others have already posted comprehensive breakdowns of this workout so I will just add my impressions. Overall, I liked this video. It was exactly what I was expecting it to be. I have used Joyce's workouts in the past but shied away from her stuff after having some customer service issues. I had been curious to try her newer stuff and was delighted when I learned I could order some of the workouts elsewhere. I got this dvd and one other from New Idea Fitness and had a very good ordering experience.

Onto the workout, it is the typical bare bones no-frills strength work Joyce is known for. There are 4 sets each containing 3 exercises: one each for biceps, shoulders and triceps. You do a full pyramid, so 12 reps for each exercise with the lightest weight, 10 each with the middle, 8 each with the heaviest, then back down again with the middle and lightest again. I felt nicely worked out by the end of it.

This is the type of training my body responds best to. I know I will get a lot of use out of this routine and am quite happy with the purchase.
