5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, October 27, 2007

I absolutely LOVE this new workout, and I don't understand why SELF Magazine didn't put the instructor, Kimberly Spreen, on the cover! This is another of those "do it all" or "mix and match" DVD's. You can do one, some, or all of the following segments (times are approximate): 5-minute warm up; 5-6 minutes leg exercises, includes lunges; 5-6 minutes back work, including rows; 5-6 minutes shoulder and arm work, including biceps and triceps; 5-6 minutes chest work, including chest presses; , 5-6 minutes core work; a 15-16 minute Full Body workout; 5-minute cool down. I chose "do it all" for my first time, but I will skip the "full body workout" next time because I was totally fried by the individual segments! Kimberly puts her own spin on some familiar moves, and she is so friendly about doing it! The combination of effective exercises, great instructor personality, wonderful outdoor scenery, and pleasant music is sure to make this one of my favorites!

I love this weight work out. Its simple and is flexible to your schedule. I've had many work out dvd's. I lost 50 pounds in the last year and this one is really helping to firm things up.
I'm going to buy more in the series right now!

This review is from: SELF - Trim & Tone Fast! (DVD)

This is a really brilliant workout that I do a couple of times a week and find it very effective and fun. Kimberly Spreen is a great instructor who is friendly, motivating and knows what she's talking about. She's not annoying and she pushes you a little when you think you want to stop.
It's a little under an hour, and 45 minutes of it is your toning workout. You WILL feel this in the morning, but you'll know you did yourself some good. There are six different segments and each of them work a specific body part. Within each segment, you change tempo or angle etc to really challenge your muscles. I find that that has been a big help in 'shocking' your muscles and making you push through plateauxs you might have.
She cues really well and so you always know what to do next. I highly recommend this for anyone who does a lot of cardio but wants to trim down more by getting your muscles to elevate your metabolism. This is a fun workout (done outside so that is also motivational) that does get results for sure.
