Kelly Coffey-Meyer's 30-Minutes to Fitness Start Here

As someone who absolutely hates working out and has no history of fitness, this was a really good starting point. The workouts are short enough that they're bearable for an exercise hater like me, and they're not too much for a beginner. Still a good workout though (especially the strength-focused one, that one wears me out.) Seriously, if you're trying to be a little bit healthier but don't know where to start, this is a good DVD.

It's a good exercise program. I wish there was some way to shut off the music and just hear her voice because the music is rather annoying at times. I like that she has it split up in segments so you can select which exercise program you want to do for the day.

This WAS for me. In 2009 I ran a marathon and got stress fractures in my right foot. +30 pounds later and 55 years old? I need something that I can do in a small space in my living room, that has adaptations for beginners, and doesn't include such tricky "choreography" that I feel like I'm auditioning for a Chorus Line. This fit the bill for me, and I am grateful to the other reviewers for their feedback. There is a bit of bouncing but I don't do that, and Kelly gives you alternatives the whole way. I need more of these to "get back in the habit". I don't think this is for serious fitness pros. But it got me moving again. One thing - I don't see any instructions on how to include those additional exercises? I listened to the intro only once though. I wonder how others are using those. Also, the music is BEYOND horrible. It makes my husband cringe, so I can't listen, and it's harder to do with no music. She needs a new music chooser.

Am somewhat disappointed with this dvd in that my knees hurt the next day and I am generally in good shape. I did this on a wood floor, guess you need a padded floor!

I was looking for something that works you out in 30 minutes as I like to do my exercises before I go to work in the AM.This is the first video of Kelly Coffey-Meyer's that I've purchased, and I have quite a collection of exercise DVD's/videos. I am really happy with this DVD and so glad that I've found her! I love her no-nonsense approach to just getting down and exercising! Her cues are perfect and her moves are easy to follow. No fancy dance steps you have to follow, lol. She has a likeable personality. I also love that you can choose from 3 different routines: cardio, weights, or stretch, and there is a warm-up. I did the cardio this morning-great workout in 30 minutes!! You really feel like you worked out and it's over in 30 minutes, lol.If you are looking for a good no-nonsense exercise video with options for cardio, weights and stretch on one DVD-this is it!

I'm not too good with exercise (prefer to walk) but I needed something for when the weather is too cold or nasty. I found most of these exercises easy to follow and felt like I was getting a good workout. Couldn't finish the first time, but each time I was able to do more.

I started working out in September after not working out for 4 years. So, I wanted a beginner's weight workout. I didn't want to mix cardio with weights, so I've only done the second routine on this DVD. I love it. It was exactly what I was looking for. I love the fact that she alternates between arms and legs, so the muscles can rest without stopping. I started with 5 lbs and now I use 8 lbs. I also revert back to 5 lbs when I need a light workout for a recovery week. I believe I can continue to use this by just increasing the weights. I love the fact that it's around 30 minutes, so I can do a 30 to 45-minute cardio DVD afterwards.

I like Kelly and bought this for days that I'm tired and want something easy. Problem is, its TOO easy for me. Would most likely be best for some one to "start there" as titled. I should have known better.
