I have over the years tried many different exercise videos and have to say this ranks as one of the best. It is split into three 20 minute sessions, covering a good sculpting workout for all muscle groups and a really fun aerobic section which although dance-orientated, is easy to follow and would appeal to both gals and guys! The last section covers mobility and some really effective s-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g. Each component is important, but can be worked alone or all together to give a challenging, but really fun workout.

5.0 out of 5 stars I've been using this video for years 2 Jan 2002

By A Customer

I've been using this video on and off for years and am just about to buy another copy because I'm worried that the original is going to wear out! It is split into three 20 minute sections - Aerobics, Toning and Stretching/Relaxing. The explanations are clear, the pace is right, and you are shown an easier alternative for the moves/postures in case you are not yet that fit or flexible. My favourite is the stretch/relax section but all of them are good, and the 20 minute lengths means you can't use the excuse of not having enough time to exercise.

4.0 out of 5 stars good but not very up to date 29 Jun 2002

By "hesterv"

I am not a very experienced fitness-video user and found this video quite easy to follow and fun. There are three sections: toning, aerobics and stretching. The stretches are sometimes executed a bit fast, but for the rest it is an excellent workout-video.
There is a but: the video was produced about 9 years ago. The setting is boring, just a studio with a coloured background (looks like a badly produced nineties video-clip). The synthesizerbeats are ment to be hip and happening but thay are definetly not.
Nowadays we want beautiful settings and video's made with care for every detail,for example Cindy Crawford's New Dimension. Kathy Smith's workout, though, is much better in build up and effectiveness, I think. Kathy really should make a 2002-version of this workout, with some new elements added. Then, I am convinced, she will have a definite hit.

I adore Kathy Smith, her timing and no-nonsense attitude make all of her fitness videos worthwhile (regardless of their age!). Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Great toning and stretching but AWFUL aerobics

OK, so this video is not new, but does the aerobics have to be so terribly cheesy. Kathy Smith's excercisers can't dance, they look horrible. Read more
