I am ending my gym membership because I enjoy this set of DVDs so much. With being consistent, and incrementally adding ankle weights, and higher resistance bands to the workouts, anyone can achieve the desired results they want. Carvalho is great. I enjoy his happy attitude and he explains things in a timely way so you never need to stop and potentially miss a step. Try this, and you will not be disappointed. In addition to the 'butt' workouts, the sculpt workout with weights and cardio is great too.
