This half-hour-a-day, weeklong exercise program is rigorous but repetitive. Exercise expert Karen Voight has devised a workout plan for Monday through Sunday, mixing up cardio, strength training, and yoga, and allowing the different muscles to rest in between. So on Monday viewers start with the cardio/lower-body work segment, on Tuesday move on to yoga and overall strength training. However, Wednesday is a repeat of Monday's cardio segment, Thursday duplicates earlier strength training routines, etc. Voight's moves are fresh: she adds a dash of ballet from her dancing days, employs yoga's underused upward dog, and pushes balancing exercises. Intermediate and advanced exercisers will work up a sweat but might quickly grow bored of reruns. However, viewers won't tire of Voight's calm but friendly approach; she inspires while avoiding the false cheerleading used by so many instructors. Equipment needed: yoga mat and blocks, 5- to 8-pound weights, and an exercise band. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Rating: - Karen Voight Yoga:A Work out for every day of the week.
I like the video because it gives you variety.It's not just the same thing every time.There really is a different work-out for each day of the week and each work out works on different parts of the body.It also adapts for different levels of ability.I think it is a good video and I am very happy with it.

- Great workout
Great DVD. I love the easy to do, realistic workout. You don't get the same boring workout every day. This DVD has a different workout for each day of the week. If you don't like Thursday, then do Monday instead.
Rating: - good variety
This DVD provides a good variety of workouts. I love the upper body workout and the cardios.

- Good Beginner workout
I gave "Sleek Physique" three stars, becuase I personally didn't find it very challenging. I hardly broke a sweat with the cardio sections, and the strength training sections barely gave me any sort of burn in my legs or arms. This DVD, however, would be a good beginner workout because Karen does give good cues and explains each exercise move. There is a little bit of cordination and balance required. For example, in the lower body strength section, you do back leg raises standing up with some ballet ... Read More
Rating: - Karen is simply the best
This DVD is the best bargain in fitness.It includes a great variety of exercise types (aerobics, yoga, weight training & abs), all with Karen's superb instruction.Be warned that this is a remix of previously released workouts, so if you already have an extensive library of Karen's DVDs, you may already have everything on this one.Even so, it's a must-have for people who take their workouts on the road -- you only need to bring 1 DVD. Many thanks to reviewer Rebecca Johnson, whose extensive description ... Read More
