I am fifteen years old, and have never been very athletic. My mother, who is an aerobic insructor, brought the video home one day, so i tried it. I did find at first it was a bit akward, but as I continued with this video i learned what was coming up next, and could easily prepare for it.It is a more personal workout because you can choose what size weights you use, and even modify your stretches. I thoroughly enjoy this video and would definately recommend it to anyone (keeping in mind that you will STICK WITH IT! otherwise it is a bit difficult, but you grow and will soon be able to do the video with ease). Just try it, there's even a ten day guarantee.
