Great personal training in a video! July 19, 2002
Kay Fielding (Scottsdale, Arizona United States)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Very easy to follow. Slow, precise movements. Go through all the weight lifting exercises and repitions with Cory Everson. I feel fantastic after the workout. It motivates me to make healthy meal choices throughout the rest of the day because I focus more on what my muscles need to perform and grow, rather than what my emotions want me to devour. I am seeing definition in my shoulders and arms. Highly recommended for the home gym.
Best upper body workout June 21, 2002
Monica Oothout (Overland Park, KS USA)

I have been an avid exerciser for about 18 years - it's routine for me. During that time I have viewed a lot of exercise videos. Cory's videos are absolutely the best. This upper body workout is intense, but not to the point that you become dismayed and want to give up. I have noticed more sculpting in my arms after just 2 weeks (and I have been doing weights for a long time!) There is a bit of fluff in her videos, but in my opinion, it just makes it more interesting and engaging. The important thing is that the workout is serious and is obviously choreographed by someone who knows a great deal about fitness. I highly recommend this video for a great upper body!
A tough but doable workout from a former Ms. Olympia. March 20, 2002
Beth Cholette (Upstate NY USA)

After working out my upper body at a beginning level for quite some time, I was finally ready to move on to something more challenging. Although Cory's workout was highly recommended, I was a little nervous about working out with a former Ms. Olympia. I need not have feared, however; the workout, while quite challenging due to the high number of repetitions, is also quite accessible to various exercise levels. Even most advanced beginners would be able to make it through this routine using lighter weights and completing less sets of each exercise. Furthermore, Cory is extremely non-threatening; rather, she's a smiling, laughing "workout buddy" (her words).After a brief warm up (3 1/2 minutes), the routine is divided into three sections: shoulders, biceps/forearms, triceps. Each section starts with a strength building move, which means 3 sets of 12 repetitions using the heaviest weight you can manage. For shoulders, it's the shoulder press, for biceps, the bicep curl, and for triceps, it's a lying tricep extension. Next comes a "tri set"--3 different exercises, each performed for 12 repetitions, and then the entire series repeated twice (3 times total). I generally lose light weights (5 lbs.), but I often have to sit out a few repetitions in order to keep pace with Cory. A brief stretching segment is a nice conclusion to this tough workout. Cory uses various equipment, including dumbells, barbells, and an exercise bench, but I've been able to get by with dumbells alone and no bench (I use a chair or the floor instead). Clocking in at exactly 30 minutes total, this is an excellent, challenging workout for the entire upper body.
Great Videoa December 9, 2001

This is a great video if you are just starting to work out. You really only need to watch it once before you memorize all the moves and start working out on your own. A barbell is best for most of the exercises, but various weight dumbells work just as well.

This video instruction is very good and the workout has my muscles burning. If you find this a little fast just put on
pause while you finish your set and go on to the next.
