Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

Health and fitness experts are exhorting us to incorporate weight training into our fitness programs--it's especially important for women for building bone density, but the truth is that working with weights increases your metabolism (are you listening? this means more fat-burning) all day. As with the cardio workout, Smith has designed two 20-minute workouts; on hectic days, doing the first alone is plenty, and on other days doing both programs will combine to help you see fast results. The movements are basic (including the all-important single-arm rows, key to building back muscles and keeping posture correct), and the delivery inviting and completely unintimidating. If you've been thinking of beginning a weight program, this (and a couple of sets of inexpensive hand weights) is really all you need to get started. Smith and crew will leave you pumped. --Anne Hurley

4.0 out of 5 stars Love this workout, May 17 2007
By Christina Kandil - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Borrowed this from the library and enjoyed so much that I bought this one and the original one. I don't like Kathy's aerobics workouts but I love these one's for lifting weights. Better than the Denise Austin one's where I don't feel I've really done anything after them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Workout, April 25 2007
By Lisa E (Squamish, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I liked this workout as much as her first video. This one is better because it has a warm up and stretching at the end which the first one does not have.

I like the upper body better on the first video and the lower on this one. This one also has a bonus ball section. The both have a bonus ab section.

If you really want to treat yourself, buy both videos and alternate the works outs. For example:

Monday - Lift Weights 1 - Upper (then run 5 km's)
Tuesday - Lift Weights 1 - Lower (bike 5 - 10 km's)
Wednesday - Another routine for a break - say a Ball workout (then run 5 km's)
Thursday - Lift Weights 2 - Upper (then bike 5 - 10 km's)
Friday - Lift Weights 2 - Lower (then run 5 km's)

Drink 10 glasses of water a day, have some walks and stretches over the weekend, eat lots of fresh low-fat food and smile!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Work Out Video By Far, April 13 2007
By Lisa E (Squamish, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I have been working out for years. Mostly at a gym but when the local gym closed down I needed something to keep me in shape along with my regular walking, running and biking. I do cardio on my own but needed something to workout my strength and tone.

I am very knowledgable when it comes to weight training and I was HIGHLY impressed with this particular video. I have over 30 work out videos, this one is the best.

If you are serious about shaping and toning your body, this is the workout for you. It is perfect for the beginner to the advanced.

If you are a beginner, you really need to start with lower weights and lower repetitions, do not try to stay with the pace of the video. Work up your reps and weights at your own pace.

Kathy is a little too gun ho and overboard in this video but she'll keep you going when your muscles are burning.

5/5 in my books! My arms are STILL rubber as I type this! Wait until tomorrow!
