I ordered this straight from Beachbody and was enrolled in a monthly subscription that I asked NOT to be enrolled in. They quickly charged my card, but I didn't get the product for a week and a half. This shouldn't surprise me since the rep yawned through our entire conversation when I was ordering it. Once I finally got the order, they didn't include the band. Yeah, another week to wait for that.

So I'm finally ready to work out. Hmmmm.... I don't seem to have a door in the middle of a room with plenty of area to workout with the band. So that's a big problem. Also, there are only three videos which I was under the impression I was getting a whole set for that price. Well... let's begin and see how it goes. Wow Tony has to be one of the most annoying people I've ever seen.  I found that turning him way down and putting on music that I liked helped a bit but then I of course was missing what he was saying. Plus he seems to be doing some moves that I clearly remember from other videos that were a big no no because they can cause injuries. I'm only 40 and in good shape, but my knees and back were NOT happy with me during and after these workouts.

I'll be sending this product back. I've had much more success with my Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. I was just looking to add variety, but I'll find something else.

I'm a 25 year old healthy female with no prior knee issues and on day 6 of the 30DS. While I love the workout (it makes me sweat like crazy and helps my endurance), I won't be able to finish out the 30 days because MY KNEES ARE KILLING ME! All 3 workouts consist of nothing but jumping, lunges, butt kicks, and squats. She moves so fast through each step it's impossible to ensure you are achieving the proper form with each move. My 30 year old husband (with prior knee problems) tried one workout with me and couldn't even finish because his knees were in so much pain. I have no doubt I'd be extremely fit by the end of the program, but my knees would be so jacked it wouldn't matter.

The girl doing the "beginner motivations" was just awful! I've been doing The Firm work outs for almost two years and have about thirty work out videos. I work out five days a week. But every time I start a new work out, I don't use weights and follow the beginner. Then the next time I do is as normal. It looked like the girl that was supposed to do it called in sick and they got a girl from the street to do it!

You can't miss how much this girl messes up. Almost every move she does wrong and even when a move is over she does it for a second before she realizes that it's over. Usually on the Firm work out you have to do it alot before you notice little mess ups hear and there. That means this girl was so bad, they couldn't even edit it out!

Aside from that LOL! It's a really good work out. I like the music and I like the power moves. You'll work up a good sweet with this one!

Honestly these are great workouts...for professional that is. It was very frustrating trying to keep up with almost every move that instead of feeling good about my workout i felt stressed. I had to constantly pause and practice the moves on my own for a few min before pressing play again. At first i thought i was just being lazy and i keept on telling my self, "oh ill eventually learn the moves"...WRONG!!! Tell me why i was able to keep up with the workout INSANITY with no problem (not that it was easy),yes the moves on this workouts were hard but at least they were in a normal paste. Then i realized no its not me, im not the problem its Turbo Fire and their crazy SUPER FAST workout moves. Plese people don't waste your money in something that your probably not going to use. I would recomed this to someone who has been working out for a long time or someone who can use their whole day learning moves to then use as a work out. Im a beginner in my 20s and not overweight but omg this was not for me.

I can see how it would be a great workout once you've completed the DVD several times and start to get the hang of the combinations. I did sweat a decent amount and the arm workout is awesome. My husband and I are fairly fit and have done many extreme DVDs but the combinations are just too confusing and frustrating. We ended up just flailing our arms and legs about and laughing too hard to keep up. It's not a good sign when you can't do the DVD not because of the physical difficulty but because some of the moves are just ridiculous. I understand trying to be different and keeping the moves interesting but sometimes basic is best.

Got this for Christmas.  I'm a fairly athletic 50 year old woman who has worked out with Sean T on his insanity video with no problem.  Was looking forward to this video since I'm getting a bit doughy in the middle.  I do fine on the ab sculpt but the cardio abs is not a work out for me.  I don't think I'm coordinated enough to do it right.  The video has Tanya who you are supposed to follow if you can't do the more intense dance work out.  I think for me they should just have an old white lady doing situps in the corner.  "This is Edith.  Follow her if you are over 50 and weren't raised on hip hop."  I'm hoping I will eventually catch on.  Until then I'll bite my lip and just do the hustle.

This is Not AM Yoga.  I have a VHS tape of this routine.  My favorite of all time, does not hurt my aging and aching body. I thought I had found this favorite on DVD since my VHS no longer works.  I was so pleased to find this DVD thinking it would have the Same AM Yoga routine along with 4 others like it.
  But NO.. Huge Disappointment.  Each routine in this DVD is beyond my ability to do without injuring my body.  I am SAD.

I was really excited to try video after watching Oprah. I haven't been able to lose 15lbs after turning forty. None of my surefire tricks worked. So I thought I'd try something new. Unfortunately I am not nearly coordinated enough to do this workout. I also simply don't have enough room or the time needed to master it. I wish I would have purchased the mat workout instead!

I was so hopeful I would love this. I guess I might enjoy the workout if I could actually do a whole workout, but just like many other reviewers - the dvd's don't work well and they skip or stop making them unusable.

Update: I was hoping the company would reach out to replay the timer. But nothing from them. I am going to change the 3 star to a 4, because this machine is an AMAZING workout. Well worth the money spent. It would be nice if the company read these and replaced the timer, as of now I am using my phone as a timer.

I want to give 5 stars but the timer doesnt work. We put it together last night and it wouldnt turn on. We tried everything. I am not sure if I should spend the time to return it. I tried the machine this morning and I have a feeling that this is going to be my favorite workout.

I was so excited to try these shoes. I've had them a whopping week and a half and they're already tearing up. I've ran 5 times in them. Super depressing. Now, I have to wait on my refund :/

I LUV JM, I really do. I have about 90% of her videos and I enjoy them all, and mix them up each week to keep my workouts fresh. My favorite vids are: no more trouble zones, metabolism boost, and ripped in 30. I bought this video thinking it would be a crazier version of ripped in 30 (which I think is advanced version to 30 day shred) but nope. Something about this workout just bores me. I don't like the pace, I don't like the "dance type moves", I just don't like it much. It is not a horrible workout , you will still get a small sweat but honestly I am used to dripping sweat w/ JM's longer videos, especially when I do 2 levels back to back of ripped in 30. Perhaps it is just a preference thing, and I just don't enjoy this style of workout and I prefer her more traditional kick boxing, plyo, and basic aerobic moves verses these fancier moves. I felt like I spent more time just trying to figure out how the move operated and not on really burning calories. Just not my cup of tea.

I am so thankful to have a great workout that I can complete during the week!  With full time work & kids it was hard to accomplish this.  I still really like the original P90X and will do those when I have more time.
One complaint that I have is that I can't fast forward through the exercise warning. I understand putting it in the videos, but it is certainly not a message that I need to patiently (or not so patiently) wait for before I can exercise.  After all, the purpose is to complete the workout in 30 minutes-so quit stalling!
The other bothersome feature is the infomercials on shakeology. They are, at least, not until the end of the exercises. It just reminds me too much of IsaGenix, which my old trainer used to try to push on me. This is one of the reasons why I quit going to him. I have been unimpressed with the data behind  meal replacement drinks in general.
Having said that I also wish the diet guidelines were better. The p90X had a wonderful guide with recipes & a schedule.  That is definitely the only real disappointment in the 3 series.
Otherwise the product arrived on time & in good condition. I still really love the workouts and have recommended them to friends.

I would love to give a higher rating for this, because it IS a very challenging and useful workout...however...it is missing two key components in my opinion.  One, there is not a long enough stretch break in between these sets - part of what makes you long and lean is ample stretching between the workout and you barely get ONE breath in any stretch pose.  I find I have to pause the dvd, give myself a real stretch, and then resume with the unbelievably painful exercises.  The other issue I have is the repetition and lack of real instruction.  It's hard sometimes because of the camera angle to see exactly how her legs or arms are positioned so you aren't sure if you are doing it right.  That can be remedied just by doing the routine enough to know it, but more guidance wouldn't hurt.  She could spend less time counting every single rep and more time telling you how to position or where you should feel the burn.  And doing 5 sets of each exercise gets tedious and damn near impossible.  I consider myself nearly advanced in working out and after three sets, I can barely move the muscle anymore.  It would be nice to do three sets of each exercise to avoid cramping/tedium.  BUT, if you can stick it out, you will probably get the body you want. I plan to use this and light cardio over the next 30 days to see what kind of difference it makes!  I have 15 lbs of baby weight to drop and want my muscle tone back.  If you enjoy calm but effective exercise, this is a good DVD for your collection.

I was super excited about getting this DVD. I had heard a bunch of great things about this series and really needed something to get me motivated and moving. After receiving it though, I was expecting some serious cardio work out sessions, but was a bit disappointed when I finally watched the video. I had done the Jillian Michael's 30 day shred in the past and thought it may be similar, with the different levels of intensitiy, but this didn't have that like I thought. The dvd has one main workout that is 20-30 min long and it does get you moving, but I need more than just 20-30 min. They also have (2 separate) 10 min sessions that you can do by themselves or had it to the main cardio workout. Perhaps I was just expecting too much, or I should just do all of them in row to get the workout I need (which I have done) but I was thinking you'd be able to start on level one beginner for a awesome workout and then be able to build up, but that is not so on this dvd. Still a good workout and change of pace for me, just not exactly what I thought it was going to be. I liked that they had a very good warm up session about 10 min and that you could mute the trainers voice if you wanted, they get annoying sometimes. Received the video quickly, that part I had no problems with at all!
