Excellent quick workout

"This is an excellent full body workout when you are limited on time. The workout is actually only about 16 minutes even though it's called a "30 Minute Workout". There is another 5 minutes of stretching and 6 minutes of bonus workout material. There is also a 15 minute instruction section explaining how to do the exercises. Three minutes of the bonus workout is pretty much useless because it uses a 50lb water jug. So unless you have one of those (or something similar) lying around you can forget that part. The equipment used in the video is a medicine ball, a resistance band, and dumbbells (I was able to use a resistance band in place of the dumbbells). It's a tough high pace workout that will have you surprisingly sore the next day after only 16 minutes of working out. I use this on days when I don't have time for the gym or longer workouts. For a more extensive workout I would also recommend the John Hackelman DVD's "The Pit Workout" (three 1 hour workouts) & "CrossPit" (two 30 minute workouts)."
Great workout!

"I love this workout, I'm glad that I finally found it after trying a ton of different videos out on the market. Many workouts are just okay, this is the only one that I've found to meet all of my requirements: increasing functional strength, working the core in novel and effective ways, relatively fun, and maximum results for the amount of time spent. Highly recommended."
