Review at a glance

My reviews will consist of a brief summary of each workout. If you are pressed for time, I'll provide "at-a-glance" info at the bottom with the quick and dirty details along with my personal rating. My ratings are a scale of 1-5 based on the following.
5 - Love it (or love to hate it) & will sweat to it often!
4 - Like it & will work it in to my regular workouts occasionally
3 - It's ok but nothing to get my booty out of bed and sweat about
2 - Could be alright in a crunch but not my cup of tea
1 - I won't bother clicking this one again

30 Minute Full Body Workout

PopSugar's Anna Renderer brings a perky and motivational personality to this 30 Minute Full Body Workout.  The workout starts out with some dynamic cardio and stretching that can be customized to your own fitness level. The cardio/dynamic stretching combo gets your heart rate up nicely and transitions into the strength/toning circuits after about ten minutes. 5 or 8 pound dumbbells are recommended for the strength/toning moves. The intervals were put together nicely and transitions were easy to follow. Modifications for each move in the workout were included and demonstrated.  All in all this is a good workout for beginners, but one that I didn't find very interesting or challenging.  I do like Anna's style though so will be checking out her other workouts soon.
