Description:

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
