I have a wide variety of exercise videos & while I don't usually buy the "celebrity" workouts, I thought I'd give this a try. I'm somewhere in the intermediate level of fitness ability, so Workouts A & B were a complete waste of time. Workout C is better, so is here are some of the things I liked and disliked about this workout:
Pro's:
Nice variety of scenes (from outdoors to indoors, inset scenes, etc).
You get a full-body workout in about 40 mins (great for when you have little time).
Intense & challenging abs workout.
No cheesy lines like "you're doing great!!" (instead Cindy complains "I don't wanna do any extra's!") and no "whoo-hoos" that can be annoying.
Con's: Wow do they lift weights FAST. I found that I was feeling almost faint when doing the weights section until I realized that it was because I was breathing out on the exertion (which you are suppose to do) but they go soooo fast that I was actually hyperventilating...YIKES
Sometimes during the cardio parts the editing isn't very good and when the scene switches from indoors to outdoors they're suddenly on the opposite foot (e.g., step-touching left to right, you tap down on the right, the scene changes, and now they're on the left foot). don't worry though, if you stay in time when the scene changes back they're back in time with you.
Ok, so overall not a bad workout, but if you're looking for a whole-body workout that works both the lower & upper body and includes cardio AND includes a celebrity I much prefer the Elle Machpherson featuring Karen Voight workout (which has been out for at least 10 years now but I still really like it).

What a great workout!! I found that the dance movements were challenging enough to not be boring but not so hard that someone like me with no coordination and no dance training couldn't learn them after a few times through. I hope there is a follow-up to this one- I'll be first in line to buy it!!

I own alot of Kathy Smith's workout tapes- She is definitely one of the best fitness instructors out there!! However, don't be fooled just because it is Kathy Smith that you will get a good cardio workout - if you are intermediate or advanced you probably won't break a sweat. This tape is FUN if you are a beginner to exercise or if you just want to learn something new. It's also good for those 'off days' when you know you should exercise but aren't feeling quite up to a strenous workout.
Some advice: Wear a sash/scarf or something around your waist -you might feel silly but it DOES help with the hip movements
Note that even though the dancers are barefoot, I found that I needed the extra ankle support of my crosstrainers.
