I really enjoyed this book. I've done a lot of therapy and 'self-help' over the years but I haven't seen a lot of what I've learned incorporated into a fitness program yet. In addition to the workout details [which where clear, concise and easy to follow] found a lot of helpful 'mental tips' in this book. I have purchased both the videos and am looking forward to giving it a all a go!

The exercises in this book are challenging. One of the things I like about reading the workouts instead of watching them is that I can go through them at my own pace, making them as challenging as needed. Unfortunately, this means that the quick "15-minute blasts" usually end up taking me a full hour, but that will probably change as I get better at them! You really feel them afterwards, as well, as they target all the small muscles that don't get used as much in everyday life.
