Crunch: Boot Camp Training |
 Perfect! |
| If you need a 30 minute circuit workout, this is perfect. She works every muscle with weights, the cardio got my heart rate up and got me sweating, and there are even sperate floor and standing ab work sections! Easy but intense choreography. If you think 30 minutes is too short, just don't buy it. This workout was obviously made for people who only have 30 minutes. And it really gets the job done in 30 minutes! - posted by BAGS on 5/4/2008 |

| If you are short on time.... |
| This is the workout for you. In thirty minutes, she works every muscle. The combination of moves for ex: using legs squats with overhead presses (at a decent pace), is what keeps your muscle working and burning fat at the same time. She throws in jumping jacks and a couple of other cardio moves to keep that heart elevated the whole time. A lot of the moves engage the core through out the workout. She has some floor work for the abs too. Sue does a fabulous job of cueing. She's totally likeable and is sweating along with you. You will sweat in thirty minutes and you will get a great workout accomplished. As you get familiar with this workout, you can always up the weight. This makes it a great workout for the beg or advanced. I have used this for the last couple of years. I am advanced, and I acheived amazing results with this after having my baby. If you have a hectic schedule or children, but want to get in a good workout in a short amount of time, do this workout! I love to workout to all of the newest videos, but this older workout always finds its way in my rotation at some point. I love that I can add on to this on days that I am able. I don't want to skip a workout because all I have is forty five minutes to myself, so this is my workout for that day. I wish Sue would bring us some more workouts!! - posted by Kelly on 4/16/2008 |

| My favorite |
| This is my favorite exercise dvd that I own. With 3 young kids, it must be quick and efficient, and I work up a sweat easily every time. I love Sue Hitzman, I wish I could find more workouts with her. She is fun and challenging. And it's nice to be watching people who are sweating and grimacing like I am, not just smiling through the whole thing like Barbie dolls or something! - posted by Jenna W. on 3/11/2008 |

 Too short |
| I agree with one of the previous posts. I wish all the instructors that did 30 minute DVD's would add another 30 min.(even if in the form of a bonus) for those of us who want at least a 60 minute workout. I have to end up finding another DVD to get me to 60 min. It would be more convenient if 60 min. could be on one DVD. - posted by Linda on 1/20/2008 |

| Wonderful Workout |
| I stumbled across this video by accident and I am so glad I did. Sue Hitzman's energy and encouragement is infectious and keeps one going. Her cuing is impeccable too. The work out targets all muscle groups and has some cardio intervals in it as well. Unfortunately, this work out is not a huge calorie burner (burned 227 calories according to my heart rate monitor) but it does get the heart rate going. I definitely recommend this video for when a person is pressed for time or wants to have a light day but still get a work out in. - posted by Jane on 1/9/2008 |

| Crunch videos too short |
| I hate to ruin the 5 star run, and I liked the instructor well enough, she reminds me of Gin Miller's comfortable style, but the thing with all Crunch videos is their length. I knew it was 30 min. when I bought it, I know, but the reviews sounded so good. I either do the workout 2x (skipping warm up 2nd time), add solid cardio at the end, or stop the workout after a few sets and do 1-2 minutes of intense cardio all throughout the video. I like this workout OK, which is why I bother to beef it up, but I'm done with Crunch. - posted by Anne on 12/7/2007 |

| Perfect 30 minute workout |
| I've been looking for a 30-minute workout since my schedule is so busy, but most of them are just too easy and don't produce real results. This one is great because it really makes you work and it's especially good if you're looking for a shorter weight-training video that works the entire body. - posted by Katie on 11/15/2007 |

| So much fun! |
| This workout is, simply, FUN. I've had this DVD for ages and never tire of it. The learning curve is not steep at all - you get classic boot camp moves like military squats and lunges. Once you become a bit more advanced, you can easily modify the workout by using heavier weights and/or modifying the cardio to your level. It's a short workout and perfect as either an add-on to your typical routine or as a stand-alone workout. 5 stars! - posted by Jenny on 11/9/2007 |

| Great Workout |
| I am at the intermediate level and wished the video was a little longer. Otherwise, it is fast paced and works all muscle groups. - posted by Toni on 10/11/2007 |
