Certified instructor description: Led by Chris Freytag, it’s a walking-style fat-burning workout and a no-nonsense body-sculpting program. The “Cardio” DVD features easy-to-follow moves like kicks, marches and half-jacks. The first section uses dumbbells to increase weight-loss effectiveness as it tones your muscles. The second segment has faster/slower aerobic intervals. The “Strength” DVD includes count variations, balance moves, compound exercises and lots of intensity options. The first part targets your upper and lower body; the second section focuses on your core and total body. Both programs are well-sequenced with super-friendly cuing. You also get a bonus 15-minute aero/tone interval workout. Requires 2 to 5 lb. dumbbells. ©2009. DVD has: Chapter menus, Music only option, Wide screen.

Prevention: 2-Week Total Body Turnaround

Great video
This is the first time I've used a Chris Freytag video- WOW! Easy moves but they really get your body going and your heart pumping. I will be trying more of these prevention video`s. I Loved It ! - posted by Linda on 8/15/2011
Great DVD
Great workout: Chris is very motivating and makes the exercise segments fly by. The approach (slower, more controlled) weight lifting seems to work for me! Saw results very quickly. Love that the segments are broken down so you can sneak them in when kids are napping / eating / playing throughout the day. My one gripe would be that I think they could have combined this into 1 DVD, instead of 2. Give this a few tries and I think you'll be hooked too! - posted by Truth on 7/22/2011
Strength- Too slow
I didn't love this video, although I love Chris Freytag and the whole idea of the Prevention videos. I only did the strength dvd. The moves were ok but each exercise is done very slowly. That is done on purpose but it just doesn't work for me. The cueing is very good and there is alot of variety. - posted by Joanne on 5/28/2011
Best Video Yet!!
I'm in love with the "Cardio" video!! I noticed my thighs getting smaller after only 2 workouts. Chris is a great instructor. I've since purchased other videos with her. - posted by Candy on 3/31/2011
Fantastic!
My church group uses these two videos on alternate days. The workouts are challenging & efficient, but fun! Chris mixes it up to keep it interesting and lively. We use 5-8lb weights and have most of the Chris Freytag videos. Good cuing and form reminders. - posted by Marcie on 3/11/2011
2- week turnaround
I like both of these workouts they're a change of pace - posted by Dawn on 3/4/2011
Chris Freytag is among the best instructors
I purchased the two week turn around due to a knee injury and needed less than an advanced workout.I tore my meniscus early spring doing advance on a step.I am 50 and I just wore it out from my active lifestyle.Bummer!!!! This is intermediate but the cardio got my heart up to my upper zone. I added the 15 minute total body express bonus workout to the whole upper & lower body for a longer workout. A keeper for less strenuous weight workout if your not looking for advance.All around this is a very good work out because Chris adds balance and a higher level option for each move. A keeper for me. - posted by Teresa on 12/16/2010
Loving my Chris Freytag rotation!
I find the strength sections to be surprisingly challenging, and at only 15 minutes each! There are actually 3 routines (if you count the bonus cardio/sculpt). Since the reps are few I go as heavy as I can - mostly 8-10lb dumbbells - and do one of the 3 strength routines each morning. Easy-peasy and out of the way! I do my cardio daily after work, and have been alternating the 2-Week Turnaround Cardio (all sections at once) with other Freytag workouts (3-2-1 Circuit, Ultimate Walking Workout, Fight Cellulite Fast!, Kick Start Your Metabolism, and both her Exercise TV walking routines) I think Chris has just been getting better and better as an instructor. She's so pleasant and encouraging to work out with and I look forward to great results (have lost a few pounds already)! - posted by Claire on 10/10/2010
2 Week Turnaround
Anyone can spare 15 minutes for cardio and/or strength training. Has a low impact model and a high impact model demonstrating technique-you can follow either depending on your endurance. I don't feel overwhelmed with exercise now-I just think "it's only 15 minutes and its something good for me". - posted by Mary Anne on 6/3/2010
Good workout.
I really like these DVDs and thought the workout was fun and sweat producing. However, I returned it because I was annoyed by the workout being divided into 2 DVDs. I liked the option of doing some or part of a workout but didn't like having to change the DVD if I wanted to do a cardio and strength workout. - posted by Ari on 4/29/2010

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.
sample time graph
Chapter menus
X
You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
Music only option
X
This feature allows you to play only the music, without any cuing (after you’ve learned the movements and you just want to do the workout without listening to the instruction).
Wide screen
X
The program fully fills a wide-screen television screen. Note: These videos will display black bars at the top and bottom on a traditional 4 x 3 ratio TV screen.
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
