3 sets of exercises. Each starts with a brief aerobic warmup and stretch and ends with a short stretch. For me, at least, the first and last sets, especially the last, seem to challenge my thighs a lot more than my rear. I couldn't even get through the routines at first and they still (after a couple of months) make my legs hurt. The middle set consists of floor exercises and these made me feel my buns were getting a workout---but not as much as the Buns of Steel 5 Beginners.

There was only one review of this video so I decided to throw my opinion in. I bought this for 4 bucks through a Yahoo auction and it's was worth every penny. This is a suprisingly tough lower body workout. But like the previous reviewer stated, it also works the thighs as well. I am used to doing squats with weights so I started the squats in the first section with 5lb weights and quickly had to drop them and go with no weights. My legs were on fire when I was done. I did the first 2 sections together and felt like I got a great leg workout.

As the previous reviewer stated this tape is in 3 15 minute workouts. Great to do on short days or double it up for 30 minutes of strength training. The first segment is primarly squats and lunges. This will really work the quads too. The second segment is very interesting floor work with virtually no knee stress (which is my main problem, I like floor work) I haven't seen these moves before and found them quite effective. One exercise you sit in a modified hurdler position and just lift the knee off the floor. This one was a burner. The third segment you use a step. All in all I really recommend this video.

Instructor Comments:
As always her form and technique are perfect. She is on her own with this tape and I find her to be very cute and motivating. She gives great tips on technique and safety that would be great for a beginner or unknowledgable exerciser. She does look more natural and at ease from the 2000 series. This tape just may get me hooked on her!

I have this on a DVD with the abs workout. Mine must be mutant, however, because workout 1 is Tamilee in a different colored outfit and all she does is a warmup and stretch and then we go into workout 2, which, imo is worth the $1 I spent on this DVD. It is 10 minutes of Pretzel and variations on Pretzel. AWESOME. Workout 3 is all squats and lunges done with a step. Also a burner. The ab work is all traditional and not worth the DVD. I'd recommend this for workout 2 alone. The only chaptering is between workouts, so you must FF through the warmup and stretch if you want to do 2 segments.

Instructor Comments:
Tamilee wears a 1 piece thong leotard in this workout that shows more of Tamilee than I ever wanted to see. :eek: She is, however, knowledgeable and personable and not annoyingly perky. I love her haircut. :)

The video is made up of three parts- a morning workout to help you wake up (25 min), an evening workout to help you unwind (25 min), and a relaxation/meditation section (10 min). I love it because you can do all of the tape when you have time, or just do one section.

Instructor Comments:
Tamilee wears an extremely high cut thong bodysuit which displays her naked bubble butt for all to see---OMG Tamilee put some clothes on!
