Patrick Goudeau's Hard Work Conditioning |
 Really Really Like This Workout |
| This is my first Patrick video, but it won't be my last. Each segment is tough, but definitely doable. Patrick's positive attitude and encouragement really help me "push thru" when I feel like I can't do one more rep. Will definitely check out Patrick's new dvds when they are released. - posted by Suzanne on 10/22/2009 |

| Luv This Video! |
| This is a great cardio and conditioning dvd. At my age (52), I found it challenging and it took some time but I finally managed to get through the entire dvd. For those of us who are not advanced (like some of the other reviewers) this dvd is definitely a challenging workout. My husband has actually commented that he's noticed a definite improvement in my body tone. Thanks Patrick...can't wait for more of your HWC dvds. - posted by Earline on 9/21/2009 |

 Too much down time |
| I like this video better than Hard Work Conditioning 2 but I just find that Patrick's movements are too slow and there aren't enough reps to really feel your muscles working. He also has just too many rests in between sets. You get your heart rate up a bit, then you're resting again - it just doesn't seem very effective to me. He has a good personality, but it gets a little annoying at times with all his giggling and "oh my gosh" throughout the video, but his approach is commendable. - posted by Stephanie on 6/26/2009 |

| wow, this is tough! |
| As advertised, this is hard-work conditioning. I'm too old, and too slow to do some of the moves (like the floor jumping jacks on the step), but I can modify and still work up a good sweat. I haven't done this one long enough to see any changes, but it's enough fun that I'm willing to keep at it. I'll definitely try more of Patrick's videos. - posted by mira on 6/3/2009 |

| OH MY GOSH!! |
| LOVE IT!!! One of my favorites....I am always sore the next day from doing this workout! Patrick is so much fun and easy to follow. The music is great and gets you moving. A must have for your workout collection. - posted by Lisa on 5/23/2009 |

| Good |
| I would like to see more reps on some of the moves; Patrick seems to rush from one move to another, just as I'm getting the hang of it. I felt I had to do both parts to really get a good workout. I did sweat, so something's working. Hard Work Conditioning 2 is much harder. Not a bad workout overall. - posted by Rhonda on 4/15/2009 |

| A refreshing change for me |
| I have been doing strength DVD's with seemingly endless repetitions. Although they have been effective, sometimes there is a "dread" factor when I start them. I loved this DVD because although there were not a lot of repetitions of each exercise, you still felt like they were effective. Most exercises were compound exercises and were challenging. It was fun. The time went fast, and Patrick was postive and encouraging. It will be my stack of favorites! - posted by Bonnie on 4/4/2009 |

| Just what I needed |
| I'm 48 and have been doing mostly Cathe for years. I loved this dvd from the first time I tried it. It was easy to follow, but I hurt (in a good way) in places I haven't felt in years...the Cathe rut, I guess. Great variety, and I love Patrick's personality. I don't mind the Oh my goshes at all. I also love that you can choose a 30, 40 or 60 minute workout. Who doesn't have 30 minutes? Thanks, and I'll be ordering more Patrick dvds. - posted by Leslie on 2/14/2009 |

| Fantastic |
| I was sweating like crazy with a big smile on my face I was having so much fun. Don't get me wrong, this is hard work just like the name implies but Patrick makes it fun. I love it! - posted by Cindy on 2/5/2009 |
