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

Wow Kelly!

Kelly is my wonderful new discovery of 2008. I recently got NYC and 30 Minutes to Fitness - Weights. I usually train with heavyish weights. Lighter weight workouts tend to feel too easy for me. The ones that are effective I dont reach out for because I get bored by repping to death. I love Kelly's approach. It is fresh, effective and a whole lot of fun. This is a great workout for intermediates. For advanced exercisers it is a versatile DVD to throw in the mix either as a standalone doing all segments (including the various active rest options) through for a fat-burn cum muscle-endurance workout, or to do one of the 30 minute segments on cardio day as a tag on. The music is great, Kelly's personality is superb and no, she does not have poor form at all. This is just a different technique of lifting. - posted by Vee on 5/3/2008

Another great workout by Kelly

I am enjoying 30 Minutes to Fitness: Weights. I love Kelly's other weight videos, including Cardio Sculpt Fitness (fun!) and New You Coming as well. Heavy Weights offers 2 sets of 3 exercises for chest/back/legs and biceps/triceps/shoulders with the option of active rests (cardio or abs). The premixes allow you to work the full body in 30 minutes or 41 minutes and also offers additional premixes to provide you with plenty of options. There is also floor ab section. Kelly offers weight suggestions for the beginner, intermediate and advanced exerciser but it is up to you to use it in a way that suits your body. Once again Lauren offers options to take down the intensity and/or offer an alternative exercise. This is a great workout and I look forward to more of Kelly's 30 Minutes to Fitness series. - posted by Gib on 5/2/2008

Wonderful!

I love Kelly and this is another great workout by her. - posted by Sunflower on 4/24/2008

Poor form

I thought Ms. Coffey displayed very poor form in this video. And I found the legwork very repetitive. - posted by JULIE on 4/24/2008

Off The Chain!!!

i thought i was hooked with Kelly's NYC and Complete Cardio Sculpt but this so called 30 minute workout is absolutely wonderful. I say so called because if you do the warm-up, active warm-up, workouts 1 & 2, abs and stretch you can get in a good hour and a half not to mention all the premixes. There are so many variations to this workout and the music is extremely motivating. Kelly kicked butt with this one. Only thing is I'd love it if there were bench presses, flies and other bench type chest exercises. I've been working out with weights and doing aerobics for over 20 years now. If I don't sweat within the first 10 minutes of a workout I won't do it. If I'm not sore the next day I wont do the workout. This DVD hits all the right spots and is a welcome addition to my workout regimen. Love it! - posted by Nicole on 4/22/2008

Kick Butt Kelly

30 Minutes to Fitness fills a void in my workout collection. The DVD consists of two workouts that allow me to lift heavy in a short period of time - it's tough and efficient. Having two different options for active rests makes the workouts feel fresh each time I do them. Kelly knows her stuff - the pace and sequence of the exercises are just perfect. I know I will be making strength gains with this DVD. The 12 minute extra ab section is a nice bonus! 30 Minutes to Fitness is a gem! - posted by Em on 4/14/2008

Feeling it!

This was a really tough workout, especially if you go heavy like Kelly suggests...ouch! The waist intervals are also very powerful and effective. I will be feeling those for a few days. It would be nice if one of her "team members" actually smiled during the workout. Its a workout, but its still fun! :) I agree with another reviewer that it would be nice to have a bit more leg work in the first workout & I did have to switch weight amounts during bicep and tricep work, but all in all, very effective. Gets the job done fast! - posted by Shelley on 4/11/2008

"Heavy Up!"

Kelly Coffey-Meyer's '30 Minutes To Fitness' is a great workout if you like to lift heavy and keep your weight workout time short and sweet! Kelly guides you through the various moves in her pleasant, encouraging and not too perky manner, and you can choose the style of active rest you want to do between each sequence of lifts. Top value workout! - posted by Adam on 4/9/2008

Loved it- please make more

I enjoyed both workouts but workout 2 is my favorite. My arms and shoulders are still fried at 10pm from this mornings workout. I enjoyed workout 1 too but want just a touch more chest and leg work (might tack on bench presses, pull ups and step ups) but I still feel like I worked everything decently. There is a lot accomplished in a short time frame. There were some really tough and effective pushup variations in workout one. I am glad for the premixes and hope the next time she might add on an all upper body or all lower body premix. The floor ab workout looks tough but I haven't had a chance to do it yet. Overall I am super happy and will be incorporating this into a regular rotation. Please make more 30 minute workouts, I will buy them!! - posted by Patty on 4/1/2008

Reading a Time Graph

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.

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.

Premixes

These are alternate workouts created by the manufacturer. They use the same content as the main program (i.e. the very same video footage). But the sections are re-edited into pre-made alternative workouts that you select from a menu. These are often condensed versions of the main workout.

Chapter menus

You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
