"I didn't have high hopes for this one but I have seen Joyce on daytime talk shows where Oprah and others swear by her books and DVDs. Now I know why...talk about spunk! She really got me up and moving!"
Love This DVD

"I'm new to weight training and found that this DVD led me though all phases of the exercises involved. There are exercises for every body part and I have found muscles I didn't know I had. Also, what I really liked was the exercises are for all ages, not just the young. I'm in my late 50's and still have been able to do most of the exercises. I have found that I look forward to each workout and am totally energized at the end. I don't want to miss a workout!"
Great weight workout!

"I bought this without knowing anything about Joyce Vedral, and am very happy that I did. In fact, I have purchased two of her other DVD's for variety's sake. The workout is thorough and goes quickly. For reference I am a female in my fifties, who is not in great shape. I feel very tired after the workouts, but feel great after all is said and done. Joyce is a character, who makes the workout go by nicely. I definitely recommend this DVD if you want to work out with weights, have three sets of weights (ie 3 lb, 5lb, 8lb, or the like), a weight bench, and a floor mat."
Very good workout

"It is a great workout with FAST result. That is my first weight training dvd and I could see difference in just few days. I'm doing it every other day (or I would be dead):). In the beginning it was a killer! Day 1 and Day 2 (but not 101). It could be borring if I look for entertainment but I concentrate on Joice movements and she is fast! Be ready for challenge.
P.S. Just a note from my recent experience: it might significantly improve weight-loss effect if add some jumping-jacks between each segment. Everything else is still as great and effective as before."
A very motivating DVD

"I have a lot of workout DVDs and videos, but this one is right up at the top of my list. Not fancy, no great music or cute backup workouters, just you and Joyce. But she is truly fun and knowledgeable. Turning on the DVD feels like meeting an energetic New York style buddy at the gym -- motivating and enjoyable. And she's REAL -- she is nearly 60, looks great but not plastic, and has done it by working out, not surgery. In terms of level, the DVD is flexible and most anyone can do the exercises if not all of them at Joyce's steady and relentless pace. Don't worry, as she points out you'll work your way up to it."
