Each is about 60 minutes. It starts out very easy and gives you good reason and direction. I love it. It scheduled for every day and take weekends off. I do it as often as I can.

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 is a timetable you follow. Personally I wouldn't recommend this one, though, it's an incredibly boring workout in my opinion, but of course you might feel differently from me. Anyway, you just follow the schedule and you'll be fine. Good luck :-)

The main eight workouts are about forty minutes each, including warmup. What they call the "Final Challenge" is twenty minutes, without a warmup, but unless you are in fantastic shape, it will leave you gasping on the floor, wondering if you will be able to get through it some time before your next birthday.

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.

It is really only 30 minutes excluding the cool down and it goes fast. There is an optional "cold start" warm up you can do but it is not part of the workout. The cool down is after the 30 minutes but it is only a few minutes and most time I skip it. I will say that on the tougher workouts I have to pause it to keep up, so it might take 40 minutes to complete.

They use light dumb bells only for the arm toning segments of each workout (about the first ten minutes or so following the warmup). If you just had a single pair of five- or eight-pound weights, that would suffice.

You're suppose to do it 5 days a week. The workout DVDs comes with a book. In the book, it has a schedule one can follow.

Workout is designed as one continuous session, but I wrote up the sections so I could use it by section, as needed, when time is tight. The full workout is really well crafted and you feel amazing after doing it in full, but I balk at a 1 hr (or whatever it is) stretch routine...

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!

Not very long. These are about 10 inches long and I'd say they stretch about half their length depending upon your strength. I see them as being best for your hips, legs, buttocks, thigh workouts as opposed to upper body.

The DVD that comes with the reformer had 4 workouts: 1. Total Body Workout #1 (43minutes, which is pretty good) 2. Total Body Express (25minutes, and probably my favorite) 3. Core Essentials (20minutes, also pretty good) and Stretch & Renew (22+19minutes, which I never got around to).

Its a mixture, there is release 60 from the classes. I really like it :) great variety as well if you haven't got much time they have 30 /45 min work outs.

There is about 3 to 3.5 minutes at the end for cool down. No added time for warm up, unless you do the 12 minute "Cold Start." I do the program early in the morning and have never done the Cold Start and it's been fine without. I also suggest doing your own stretches instead of the "cool down" as the stretches Tony does are not great, in my opinion.
