The Ultimate Aerobic Workout is a fast paced 35 minute routine that combines strength training with cardio conditioning. Most aerobic programs are usually only lower body intensive. This routine is unique because it includes strength training for the back, chest, abdominals, and legs. This is a complete total body workout that will leave you out of breath. The only equipment needed is a pull-up bar.

The workout is formated for beginners, intermediates, and advanced. You simply follow along with the demonstrator for your particular fitness level. When I started this workout I could only complete half the routine and would lay on the floor gasping for air. With practice I was able to slowly progress to the advanced level. The addition of the strength exercises really makes this a demanding workout that will challenge you to put out. This video is also available as part of the Navy SEAL Workout-3 Pack. This set includes the Total Body Workout and AB Blast routines.

The production quality is good with pleanty of precise instruction. This is a simple yet effective workout that is guaranteed to improve your fitness level. All of Helvenston's workouts are great and I recommend them to anyone wishing to get in better shape. Helvenston's physical appearance and enthusiasm will motivate you to succeed. Good health is a lifestyle and this video will help you reach your fitness goals.

(My sincere regards to the Helvenston family for their loss. Scott lived and died the life of a warrior.)

This review refers to a different Navy Seals workout version (3 in 1 DVD format) with Scott Helvenston.

These workouts are clear, simple and challenging. While the only equipment that is required is a pull bar, you may use the beginner's modification with free weights (which you will also need).

I am in no way in boot camp shape but still was able to do all the advanced strength exercises except the upper body challenges in their entirety which include a few back-to-back pyramid push ups (regular push ups, dive bomber pushups, and more). Yipes! After using the DVD just a few weeks though I can tell the shape of my body has changed and the inevitable soreness I feel from this hard workout makes me feel strong and alive. I love it more than any other strength workout because afterwards you not only feel physically stronger but mentally stronger as well! You just can't get that from The Firm series.

You don't need much space to do the workout.
The instructor is in unbelievable shape, friendly and motivating.
Two males lead the advanced and intermediate versions while one muscular female presents the beginners' adaptations. There are no fancy choreographies to learn and no women in thongs bouncing around.

As non-military, I cannot address how well this represents or prepares you for Navy Seals boot camp.

I purchased the 3 in 1 set (strength, stamina, and ISO workouts) for half the price by another (Navy Seals) vendor and just love it. Do an internet search for Helvenston's name and Navy Seals and you ought to find the cheaper, DVD version too.
