Integrated Strength Training

Jeffrey Scott is pretty cool, sort of acts as if he's... well, acting? I don't get the feeling of genuine excitement or encouragement from him. However, he's good at explaining the moves and variation levels.


I would almost classify this as a low-impact workout. It's fairly easy and doesn't take your breath away. You'll need a bottle of water, a set of light weights and a set of medium weights.


The workout involved strength training and balance, working every major body part. It's about 50 minutes long, which sounds like a long time but it goes by fast.


Sets and music are pretty boring, not much to brag about there. Most of the Trainer's Edge videos look low-budget. This shouldn't stop you from trying it, it's great for beginners and intermediate trainers. If you consider yourself advanced, I'd stray away from this workout. I didn't feel as if I got enough out of this; there was no burning feeling in my muscles, and my heart rate didn't elevate much.


All-in-all I'll give this three out of five stars. It's great for people who are just getting into weight-lifting, but they may find it a little boring. And it's not suitable for people who have lifted weights for a while.
