| Disappointing! |
| First of all, there is nothing wrong with this video. I feel like I get a good workout. However, it's BORING. Each set of exercises has one of the trainers being worked out, while the others sit on the sideline and watch. The entire time I'm watching the timer on the DVD player to see how much longer I have left. Personally, I found Personal Training With Jackie to be much more enjoyable. - posted by Alicia on 6/29/2010 |

| Short, powerful workouts using intervals - and it works |
| Interval workouts are proven to work. Moreover, they allow you to get more done, to build more muscle and burn more calories in less time. There's no need to spend lots of time working out if you do it the way Warner does in these workouts. Those who are always talking about doing more are merely trained that more is better. It's not.
The only problem I have with the entire video is in the Ab/Core section. Warner admits crunches are worthless and yet she has the viewer do them. Fortunately, they're only used briefly. Crunches don't work and they can be dangerous. I know a former bodybuilder who hurt his back after doing them for decades. There are many fine ways to work the core and Warner does them in this video. Were the crunches taken out, it would be perfect.
By the way, this program works.
Highly recommended. - posted by Susanna on 4/27/2010 |

| you can do anything for a minute! |
| You know you’re a Collage addict when the first time you try a fitness DVD you’re mentally taking notes for a review and wavering on the star rating LOL. Well I have to say that despite the short segments I was a sweaty mess by the end of this DVD. I did all three (upper, lower and core) with 8 pound weights – I may just do a single segment with subsequent uses! I foresee them as great add-ons to cardio workouts. I like Jackie – she’s hyper and personable and pays attention to form. I won’t even take a star off for the trampy outfits and the fact that often, one of the exercisers would be working out while the others sat around on fitness balls in the background – what’s up with that? Overall I highly recommend. - posted by Susan W. on 3/6/2010 |

| The best |
| This one is amazing, you have 20 min for upper body 20 for lower and 20 for abs. You can mix and match however you like. The next day you will feel your entire body. She knows her job. One of my favorites. - posted by Star on 2/26/2010 |

| awesome workout! |
| this is better than it looks from the description (bars showing time), you can do all 3 at once for a complete hour long kick butt workout! Heartrate is high & sweating hard the whole time if you use heavy enough weights. I used 5's & 7's on some, obviously hard the more you put into it. I would say not for beginners but i think a beginner could start w/2 or 3 pounds & work up. I love it w/the cardio blasts too. Not as hard as Jari Love but a great all around workout & nice that you can customize & do upper, lower or abs only if you choose. - posted by Angie on 1/21/2010 |

| Great one! |
| First off: I am not a fan of tough-love instructors and I really don't like it when the people on the video don't do the whole routine with me (including the instructor). However, these are my ONLY problems. This is a great workout that hits all sorts of muscles. It does what it says it will do. This is a great video to cross train with and will definitely stay in my rotation. - posted by Gretta on 12/28/2009 |

| Not necessarily for advanced users |
| If you're a "shredder" ladies, then this disc should be purchased with caution - maybe for easier days, or when you're returning from a shorter hiatus after illness or vacation. Do not buy this for an intense workout. Each workout individually is not a challenge at all, and together, it's so-so. Jackie is nice and the people in the video are nice to look at - but don't get excited about a super challenge! - posted by Rachel on 12/27/2009 |

| Great Workout... not for beginners! |
| I was pleasantly surprised by this workout. I workout in my home gym which has a mirrored wall so I can watch my form instead of the television, so the "Hollywood" fitness attire and perfect hair wasn't an issue for me. I was more focused on Jackie's voice and cues rather than who was or wasn't actually doing the workout. I found Jackie extremely pleasant to listen to and enjoyed her encouragement throughout each of the exercises, although, I got a little tired of her saying how she was "feeling" it on some of the exercises that she maybe only did 10 or 12 reps. All in all, I found the workout very challenging for my level (intermediate/advanced) and am awaiting the soreness to set into my entire body after doing 1 minute sets of each exercise. An extra plus: the three 20 minute segments make it easy to put this DVD in your rotation and work a different body part each day with an additional cardio workout. - posted by Littlekk00 on 11/18/2009 |

| Very good workout - My new favorite |
| I've had this work out for a few weeks now and it has become one of my favorites. I'm in my late 30s trying to get back into shape after several years off from exercising. I found it challenging and the right mix of weight vs aerobic intervals that seem to be most effective in helping me burn calories in my late 30s. You don't need weights to do this workout but you can add them if you want. This makes it a good DVD to play on my computer when I travel. She does present modifications for those wanting more challenge and the variety of exercises is different from what I've seen in in other videos. She does cue you well, I think, and helps you attend to form. I didn't have a problem with the workout gear worn in the video. I thought it was tastefully done. - posted by Mimi on 10/11/2009 |
