Work Out: One-On-One with Jackie |
    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 |

    Great |
| This workout is really great! I got stronger, and I started to get thinner but I got lazy and stopped which was dumb of me! Everytime I finish this workout I feel so amazing, especially after the lower body workout. My legs were literally shaking, and I have hard strong muscles in my legs after about a month, but I didn't do it every day even though I probably would have gotten better results if I did. I know that all the make up and stuff on the girls and nice hair styles are unrealistic because you know that no one actually gets all pretty to exercise, but I'm telling you this workout is great. If you like athletic workouts, and none of that dancy complicated stuff, this is the workout for you. =] - posted by Julie on 6/26/2009 |

    Good arm routine; so-so otherwise |
| I've tried this a few times, but the only "keeper" part is the arm section for me. It's hard to get past the appearance of the other trainers - painted on abs and non-workout attire (baseball caps?). The worst part was realizing at the end, I was the only one who had done the whole routine! Jackie looks great, but doesn't do much actual exercise and little cueing. Seeing the other trainers lounge around is not inspiring for me. The lower body section was too hard on my knees, the ab section was OK. I am sticking with the arm section for the great variety, but overall, just felt like everyone was trying too hard to be cool and not athletic. - posted by Ann on 6/9/2009 |

    LOVED IT! doms for days! |
| I did the entire workout at one time, it has a fantastic core section! My shoulders, butt, and core were sore for days-the good kind of sore where you feel the workout was actually working something out! This dvd will be in my rotation at least twice a week. I don't have issues with clothing, hair, makeup so those criticisms seem petty to me, I buy a dvd for the workout, I personally didn't even notice how the trainers were dressed or groomed...I was too busy sweating! - posted by Nancy on 6/4/2009 |

    Great Workout |
| I really like this workout it has alot of variety, also like the way the exercises are modified so if there too hard you can still do them. Other great videos are 30 day shred and daily dozen by Denise Austin. I think this video is worth getting and worth the money. It really keeps you moving. - posted by Cathy on 6/2/2009 |

    good, but fast |
| the workouts are great and you will get results. but her count is way too fast sometimes. like she was rushing for whatever reason. i like the fact that i saw the 'making of' episode and know that it kicked the butts of the other trainers as well. so i don't feel so "weak and human"! - posted by spolice on 5/28/2009 |

    Excellent video |
| I really hated exercising however I look forward to doing this video - the segments are great to combine or do individually if I'm short on time. I get up at 5:00am to work out and this video makes it easier to get out of bed. Give it a try! - posted by Maryellen on 4/21/2009 |

    Excellent Work Out |
| This DVD is the one I go to most often. I do the 20 minute core section plus either the 20 minute upper or lower body workouts for 40 minutes of butt-kicking action. Highly recommended.**** - posted by Jenny on 3/30/2009 |

    This works! |
| Some of the criticisms of this DVD are valid: the cuing is non-existent, the clothes worn by the "trainers" are a bit Hollywood, etc. BUT this workout works your whole body well. I cannot yet even complete the AB workout; my legs and glutes are a bit sore for a day or two ... even the small muscles that other workouts don't focus on. This one will work and leave you dripping in sweat. The focus on proper form is wonderful, too. - posted by Liz on 3/22/2009 |

    uuuhhh...I liked it |
| I know that this workout has alot of mixed reviews, but it kicked my butt! I always view a workout first (to see what I'm getting myself into). But when I viewed this one, I thought to myself...TRASH!!! A bunch of too cute to sweat ladies/guys, and way too easy moves. I'll save this one for a "light day". That was a mistake!!!! I don't know how or why, but this was tuff! I did have to add heavier weights on the lower body,(she does not use them on all segments,but I did). The arms/abs... killer! This one you either hate it, or love it! I LOVED IT!!! I cant wait to do it again... as soon as my muscles recover! :-) - posted by kristian on 3/20/2009 |
