Tracie Long Reboot Vol 1 - Thoughts

Reboot Vol 1 is the first workout in a new series from Tracie Long. It is approximately 50 minutes long and is an interval style workout. The basic pattern of the intervals are : cardio recovery weight training recovery cardio I like the workout. I didn't think it all that intense, more of an intermediate workout. Also, I didn't think it all that different from the Longevity Series (Tracie's previous serious). The DVD does not contain any premixes but the following chapter points are available to select: Warm Up (5 mins) Hamstrings & Butt (8 mins) Lunges & Shoulders (8 mins) Weighted Push Ups & Rows (8 mins) Squats & Biceps (8 mins) Weighted Core (5 mins) Stretch (5 mins) Like most of Tracie's workouts, the workout is tightly choreograph with the music. The workout uses two sets of dumbbells and a mat. 3 & 3/4 stars
