How long is each workout?
1458925
Each workout varies from 15 mins to 45 min they are done in couple so you might have a 35 min wrk out today and a 1hour and five min work out next time but he starts at 15 and gradually you move up I followed the calender and it was great

Hi Thelma - the first workout (Mark, Move & Groove which is teaching the basics) is maybe 15 minutes long; the second (Disco Groove) is 35 minutes; the third (Party Express) is approximately 35 minutes while Shaun T's Dance Party is 45 minutes. I'm just now learning the choreography of Dance Party. They are all very challenging at first but just a lot of fun. There are 3 extra workouts: Rock it out is 45 minutes; Hard Core Abs is 10 minutes - what a workout that is! Booty time is approximately 30 minutes and this is the workout I've not seen yet. All really do get your body working and heart rate elevated for a very good aerobic workout as well as geared to strengthening the core. I chose to also purchase a week later Shaun T's Hip Hop Abs so I could learn the secret to his Tilt, Tuck and Tighten technique. Audio is not so good on the first CD but the second CD is much better and focuses on the abs. I'm liking this for the abs and obliques - strengthening the core. The third CD focuses on the buns and thighs - not tried that one out yet. At 66 I never dreamed I'd have so much fun working out alone in my living room. Loving it and hope I can build, strengthen and continue this activity for quite some time to come. Hope I've answered your question but then I think I've given you extra. If you make this purchase I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. The best workout! (Didn't like too much Zumba and J Michaels was boring) Shaun T is a great motivator and is great fun but then I do love to dance. Have fun Thelma. Write back and let me know how you like this. =D

Yes--but it's even better because he clearly announces the moves, whereas in a lot of the Sweatin' DVDs you are guessing. DVD 1 is 20 minutes Cardio, DVD 2 is 25 minutes Cardio and DVD 3 is 30 minutes Cardio. All the weight workouts are about 1-15 minutes. EAch Challenge is about 10 minutes.

It includes 4 DVDs--the Basic Workout Plus with instructions, the same DVD without instruction (for when you know it well enough), Step Away the Inches ( a 25 min walking workout) & Yes, You Can (video of one of her seminars--mostly inspirational, but has some keys moves like how to relieve back pain & get rid of tricep flab.

The workouts are extremely low impact, but I would recommend this: as the workouts are about thirty minutes each, if you can walk at a casual pace for ninety minutes - half the workout for three times the length - you should be able to do these workouts. Also, on the first disc (Start It Up!) there are two bonus workouts: Thin Thighs Guaranteed, and Cardio Core Express. You may want to begin with the Cardio Core Express workout first, as it will help build your stamina.

I think it depends on what kind of activities you do in CrossFit. Sorry, I tend to just run for my primary form of exercise and some weights. I do know that if I don't feel like I exercised enough by looking at how many steps I had and how much time I spent doing something really active like run rather than walk, I will force myself to go to the gym and run on the treadmill for at least 30 min.

For me, I set the fan setting on 4 or 5. That should probably get you 99% of the exercises you will need. After that, focus on two numbers only on the display: 1) strokes per minute (s/m) and 2) split time ("x"/500m). Target s/m during training of 18-30. Target a split time of whatever is comfortable. I would recommend a trial cardio of 26-28 s/m and split time of 2:05-2:15. Start at goal of keeping that up for 5 minutes, then add in more time and faster split times (it is hard to get faster than 32-34 s/m, so adjust duration of workout and/or split time). If you don't get a good cardio workout with these targets, you are already a super athlete...or you are some sort of supernatural being! For me, I set the fan setting on 4 or 5.

Yes. It is 30 minutes each. I own Bob Harper, Jillian Michaels, Amy Dixon, The Iron Core way, and Paul's Ultimate Kettlebell workout and this one is my favorite.

A few of the workouts are 30 minutes. There are also the 45 and 60 minute workouts. The program is very customizable. They do give you a recommended workout schedule, but I typically stick to the 30 minute workouts due to time constraints and still feel extremely worked! Hope that helps. I do love the program!

There should be a chart included. If you can't find it - Weeks 1 & 2 you do disc 1, then 2, then cardio 1 for the first 3 days, then repeat them for the next 3 days, take day 7 off. Do that same series weeks 3 & 4, using workout discs 3 & 4 instead of 1 & 2, same cardio 1. That is Phase One. Every two weeks you are moving on to the next set of workout discs, 5&6, then 7&8 with cardio 2 for 4 weeks. Finally, the last 4 weeks your use workout discs 9&10, then 11&12 with cardio 3. So, every pair of workout discs you should do 4 times before moving on to the next pair.Use every cardio disc for 4 weeks, that would be 8 times before moving to the next disc.Hope that helps!

Start with volume 1 and take it slow. The 30 min workout is challenging so do your best on the 57min workout. Pause and take breaks as needed. You will get stronger just stick with it.

Kelly, do you work for beachbody or something? These workouts are insane! You didn't even break a sweat?? I just finished Chalean Extreme, a 12 week program training with heavy weights along with some plyometrics, kickboxing, etc. It's a great workout, but that was easy compared to this. I'm no athlete, but I'm in pretty good shape. I totally disagree. BBL is NOT good for a beginner. I sweat bullets when I do this and I'm not a big sweater! Good luck Kat.

yes, I have done the routines 6 days a week, but I do the main one three days a week and then do the extra dvd's for abs, buns/thighs, yoga/stretching on the other days. I have done the extra ones twice in a row on the same day, but I have never done the main 30 minute dvd on back to back days. Concerned that could lead to an injury. I am middle aged, so may not exercise at your same intensity, but I don't think I could do the main workout more than 3 days a week.

I think the music is motivating but you honestly are so focused that you may not notice it. Each exercise lasts for 1 minute then builds to something else. The DVD has an option of normal, loud, or no music on the daily workouts. Day one starts with Cardio, Day 2 is Speed 1.0, Day 3 is Total Body Circuit, Day 4 is Lower Body focus, Day 5 is an Abs workout and a second Cardio workout (2 workouts are scheduled for Friday or you can do the other one on Saturday), Day 6 is a rest day to check your stats and Day 7 is Intensive Stretching. This is the Alpha round workouts and the order of the workouts switch daily for around 4-5 weeks. Then there is a new set of workouts called Betta that begin after these workoust. Honestly, Shaun T is giving a lot of motivation because it's an intense 25 minutes. There is also a 2 1/2 to 3 minute intensive stretch cool down after the 25 minutes to build balance and flexibility. I hope this helps.

It is designed to be done five days a week, but it depends on your goal. I workout six days a week, but I use this workout among other DVDs or just bodyweight workouts. This way, my workouts don't get stale.
