Time graph for Kelly Coffey's 30 Minutes to Fitness
Both workouts feature “active rest” segments between the weight-room-style exercises. These heavy-dumbbell routines are effective, but tough — the “rests” provide a motivating break just when you need it (they include both core-conditioning and aerobic-paced movements). The first workout targets your back, legs and chest; the second shapes your biceps, triceps and shoulders. Kelly Coffey-Meyer combines classic exercises with subtly “tweaked” variations (e.g. a push-up with a balance element, a squat with added pulses). No-nonsense cuing and upbeat music. Requires 8 to 15 lb. dumbbells. Also has a “bonus” 12-minute ab section. ©2008. DVD has: 7 premixes (29 to 41-min. alternate workouts), Chapter menus.

Kelly Coffey's 30 Minutes to Fitness

AWESOME!!!!
This is absolutely my favorite workout video EVER! I love Kelly's no nonsense approach to strength training and her cueing is great. She shows you how to do the exercise and then you get it done. The transitions are smooth and something about the music makes me want to push myself a little harder--it has to be the beat! It is a great all around workout, strength and cardio, and I highly recommend it to anyone from beginners to advanced. I am now coming back for more videos--I am hooked. - posted by Linda on 8/7/2010
Good short workout!
As a mother of 2 young children and a school teacher, time is always an issue with me. My passion is running, and I'm currently training for a marathon. This workout is perfect for cross training days and getting some strength training in without taking up too much time. Love the basic moves and the active rest that really activates the core!!! Great workout! - posted by Betsy on 8/5/2010
Great Workout
Absolutely love it. I never worked with weights until this video-and the active rest really gets my heart rate up so I feel like I am getting an aerobic workout too. This is one workout I look forward to doing, and I don't watch the clock to see how many minutes I have left. - posted by Judy on 7/15/2010

I have done several of the segments and I must say that this woman is an animal (In a good way). I am 68 and just barely able to complete the workout never mind at her intensity. I would recommend this DVD to anyone looking for a real workout without going to a gym. Excellent! - posted by Stuart on 7/15/2010
WOW
I am 68 yrs (not sure young or old lol) I just received my DVD yesterday and I just finished the last pre mix. Well, I found out how out of shape I really am. It will take me a little longer to get the cardio movements as I am not used to that group but they are effective for sure. I picked up my 10# dumbbells and started. I found out what the word humility really means lol. I soon changed to my 5# weights and will stay there for a while. Kelly is the most energetic person I have ever seen and strong. Let me not forget that. Her cueing is perfect the workouts are perfect. I need some muscle building before the heavy weights but this program actually gives you everything you could want in a workout. I am certain everyone reading this is much better shape than me so this will be a snap for you. I am now a Kelly fan even though she almost killed me lol. Just kidding. GREAT WORKOUT - posted by Stu on 6/24/2010

I think this is a great video. Kelly incorporates cardio with weight training. Your heart is pumping all the time and your burning calories for 30 minutes. I have done this video so far three times with 8 and 10 lb weights and now I will move on to a higher weight. It's great if you don't have a lot of time. - posted by Donna on 6/24/2010
One of my favorites !
Great no-nonsense weight work-out. The instructor is very clear and motivating. As you progress, just go to heavier weights, and it's still a good work-out every time. On days where I don't have a lot of time, I skip over the "active rest" parts and just go straight through to the next set of weight lifting. The pre-mix options allow for enough variation to do this DVD several times a week. Would highly recommend this DVD as a effective/efficient use of time to build some muscle. Not complicated; easy to follow. - posted by Joanne on 6/23/2010
Exactly what I have been looking for!
The only negative comment I have is that I waited so long to try this workout! Kelly has really designed a fabulous workout here with more options than one could imagine. It really is hard to find yourself bored as there are at least 6 premix options in addition to the 2 original workouts. Surprisingly, I have yet to try the 2 "originals" as I have been enjoying the premixes! There are not many negative reviews about this DVD and the couple that there are IMO, are off in left field somewhere. Kelly's pace throughout the DVD is faster than say Cathe's heavy lifting, but if you follow the weight guidelines she announces, listen to your body, and use excellent form, everything is on the up and up. There is a move in Workout 1 that had me concerned when I first saw the clip here, but she demonstrates it first (1 Arm Row w/a Twist). Following her tips, it's a movement that gets into the mid AND lower back working more muscles than traditional rows. Not dangerous at all and I felt muscles working I hadn't in a long time! Be warned for those that are newer to fitness or those that stumble over themselves often: In the Premixes, she moves QUICKLY in between the transitions so be prepared to move it or be left behind! I find that I am sweaty and shaking at the end but also energzied. I am an intermediate exerciser and used 8s throughout the premixes. Even in Workout 1 I feel my biceps working hard and biceps aren't covered till Workout 2. She's an excellent instructor and offers motivation like no other. It's what I have been waiting for; a quality, results producing workout that is done in literally 30mins...29 with some premixes! I love Cathe's DVDs, but I think I have been converted to a Coffey-lete for shorter, intense strength! Sorry Cathe and Thanks Kelly! - posted by Fitness_Diva on 5/25/2010
love 30 minute workouts
I am always on the lookout for good 30-40 minute workouts and this is one of them! Go heavy on the weights and you will get a pretty solid workout. The premix choices where you can mix in light cardio or abdominal exercises are a great option. I also like Kelly's clear cues and no nonsense banter. - posted by Jennifer on 5/19/2010
Takes too long to begin
I understand why Federal warnings are needed - but having to wait each time the DVD loads up wastes valuable time. Also, selecting particular workouts should be easier...This isn't the workout I was hoping for. - posted by jcyakabo on 5/14/2010

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.
sample time graph
Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
