This is an excellent video by a professional trainer for beginners
I am not sure, but I think I lost about 30 lbs. or more just by following this video by Joy Bauer for a few months. I wish I had purchased this video first. I was not quite ready for the first video's I purchased. Both Joy Bauer's Slimdown Workout and The 10-minute Solution Hot Body Boot Camp by Amy Bento were very professional but the strength needed for The 10-minute Solution exercises was tremendous, and it was months' before I was even ready to attempt several moves. I did lose 20 lbs. or more after doing my best at using this video for about a year. Joy Bauer is more gentle and concerned about getting you started, regardless of whether you are just beginning or are already an athlete. I highly recommend her video to anyone for fitness. I can't remember ever being sore. She knows how to protect and encourage gently, without pushing too hard.

Great Workout for Semi Beginners
This was a great video to work out to, the people are not annoying as they go thru the routine and add a few moves to make it more fun. While you are doing it you are thinking this can't be doing anythng it doesn't seem difficult enough, but the next day you can feel it all over. Good variety of moves.

Workout DVD
This is one of the best workout DVDs I've ever used. My husband and I are over 65 and it's difficult to find a workout that isn't either too easy or too strenuous. Both the cardio and weight portions of this workout are great and the stretches at the end of the session are wonderful. Joy Bauer's Slimdown Workout

Timely, all-over workout
Great work out. My whole body feels it when I'm done. I like how the back and arm muscles are incorporated too. And did I mention timely. 5 min warm up, two 20 min work out options and a 5 min cool down/stretch.Bought for my mom who has knee and foot pains because I read a review that it wasn't too "heavy impact". I exercised to the dvd with her a few times. Just ordered one for myself!

Great!
I am a beginner when it comes to working out. Joy's workout is easy to follow and fun. She gives tips to make it easier or harder. It is divided into two segments so you can do both or just one.

Workout review
I've got to say that the interaction between these two women is a little creepy. "Always" "Perfect" ugh. That said, I tune it out, listen to music and the workout is as good as you want to make it.

I actually really enjoyed this workout. It is easy and simple, but if you want to you can really make it tough.
