A great workout but requires a lot of equipment

"This is a really great workout. Like the product summary says, exercises are done one set to failure with heavy weights. She tells you what weights she uses for each exercise, but you can use whatever is appropriate for your fitness level. This is purely a gym style weightlifting workout, it doesn't have a cardio element like "The Firm" style workouts. It has a lot of exercises you won't find in other DVDs, which is a great way to keep your workouts fresh and effective. (I love the wrist curls for grip strength, you don't see that in other DVDs!)



However, a few criticisms: She works the same muscle groups several times (there are at least 3 or 4 tricepts exercises), and that doesn't make sense to me since she is trying to fit so many different exercises in one workout. Also she uses a lot of equipment. If you don't have a weight bench there are a couple of exercises you can modify but a couple of them you'd just have to skip."
