Brooke Burke Tone & Tighten - Review

Tone & Tighten is just over an hour in length. In this workout, Brooke leads you through a series of toning exercises (some of which has a cardio emphasis).
Brooke uses light weights and/or your own body weight to provide resistance for each exercise. Each exercise is performed for one minute or 30 seconds for each side.

Some of the exercises she does are: criss-cross lunge, plie punch front, arabesque, W shoulder press, biceps curl, kickbacks etc.

Now the DVD menu breaks up the workout as follows:
warm up
lower body
upper body
core
cool down

However, I felt the lower body and upper body segments blurred together because many of the exercise in these sections consist of compound exercises that worked both the upper and lower body. Also a couple of the exercises in the lower body section only worked the upper body.

The workout does moves at nice pace. Brooke takes time to stretch between several of the exercises.

Brooke is pleasant. The set is decent. The music is mostly background in nature and you are given the option to play music and instruction, instruction only, or music only.

I was not a fan of this workout.
