This 2 DVD set contains three 19-25 min workouts. Emily leads with 2 background exercisers, one showing less challenging modifications. The set has a nice spacious log cabin look. You will need dumbbells and a tall box for some workouts.

This is fast paced routine with no wasted time!

20 Minute Flat Belly Fix: (disc 2, 21 min) You perform about 10 reps of each exercise # rounds with a after a warm up, include renegade row, tuck & roll back, weighted V hold, weighted twist & press, one min plank variation, weighted sit up variations, side plank & reach through, rocking hollow man, 1 min reverse plank hold, plank to hop to low squat, and a cool down.

I rate these advanced workouts. They arent long but they are intense. They all really hit the core, get the heart pounding, and include strength work. Emily is a great lead with a very motivating physique. The exercises are all athletic and no complicated choreo. They do a great job of offering modifications for the exercises. I received these DVDs to review.
