Good workout
Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 
This is a pretty demanding (but excellent) workout. It is structured well with different sections so you can mix and match whichever body parts you want to exercise. I found the lower body routine (squats and lunges) fairly straightforward to follow but agree with some other reviewers on the upper body segments where I found it fairly hard to coordinate upper with lower body moves. I'm unable to do the whole tape in one sitting but can usually work my way through two segments which makes for a good half hour workout.

Just average

First of all, if you have neck and shoulder problems stear away from this DVD. After doing the "Great Weighted Workout" two times, I found that afterwards I would be in a lot of pain. I think it is because of the swinging movements you do throughout the upper body segments using weights. The third time I tried the workout, I used weights only part of the time, and I didn't experience the same problems.

I would not recommend this DVD for beginners. I have been an avid exerciser, so I knew when to not overextend my knees, arms etc.. Karen, however, does not give that clear of instructions on how not to do that. Unfortunately, I believe it would be easy for a beginner to get hurt. As far as recommending it to those who are on an intermediate or advanced level, you will feel some burn. I would say, though, save your money there are such better DVD's out there like Jari Love "Get Ripped".

You'll feel the burn...but you won't be building muscle...

I loved this DVD...before I learned about proper weight training methods. Karen instructs viewers to do so many consecutive repetitions of exercises that muscles will fatigue, but they won't be properly stimulated to grow or to truly attain that nice tone we all want. Calories will be burned because you're moving around a weight for a long time, but if you really want a workout that will improve your physique, just start learning the basics of good old standard weight training routines--squats, lunges, presses, etc.

This is a very good DVD. Karen makes you work hard.I also like the fact that she is so fit and sculpted. I would highly recommend this video if you are looking for an exceptional workout.

Karen' s the best

As with Energy Sprint, I had these when they first came out and now had to reorder them since I was getting bored with spinning, yoga and running. I needed weights and remembered her videos. She gets so much in and the time goes by so fast.
