Good but not as good as the second and third3
Just done this and like all of Nell's workouts it certainly works you!! However this reminds me of the first one, not so hard on the upper body though and personally I prefer the second and third workouts as they are more circuits.

I feel like this one is a half hearted effort, thrown together with no thought by the makers. The abdominal sections are not really that good and there are not any weights and bum exercises on this one and you can get a free 3 day gym membership from any gym in the country.

I workout 4-5 times a week, mainly to Nell or Karen Voight (her great weighted workout is a great one to use alongside Nell) and I find that all of Nell's cause me Repetitive Strain Injury of the calf muscles which mean I have to visit a sports therapist every couple of weeks to have sorted out, this is something that happens to me if I run also.

I would like to see Nell and her team put together a well balanced circuit workout using weights and cardio as I feel that sometimes the cardio is over cooked and once you reach a certain point you stop burning fat and start hurting your body.

Don't get me wrong her workouts really work and melt the fat but sometimes I wonder if it would be better to do a lower impact workout more often as you can't possibly do her workouts daily, you have to give your body a day off or it will break down.

I also workout with British Military Fitness in a local park twice a week and don't workout at home when I do this and Nell's workout certainly got me fit enough to complete their tough tough drills and this is something I would recommend all Nell fans try.

Beginners won't like these workouts and I suggest they start with Karen Voight or Denise Austin whom explain form, which is something you never ever get with the Nell workouts, which is quite lethal. For example the plank in this one, he doesn't tell you to pull you abbs in to support you back.


Excellent 5
Well I've just tried this and its as good as the last three. If you loved the previous Nell DVDs you'll love this. The same group are back and the workout is very much the same as the last. The music is great and it has something for everyone. I love to exercise and this really gets the thumbs up for cardio. I started my love of exercise with Nells older DVDs and they are the best of the usual annual fitness stuff. If you're a beginner it will be difficult to keep going but she says in the intro to just march in place or dance. Its a dvd that grows with you and your fitness level will improve. The rest can't compare with the quality brought out by Nell, Liam and Michelle. I'll just enjoy this and look forward to next years DVD.

Excellent workout, but I still prefer Ultimate Challenge ...4
Excellent work out - Liam is his usual brilliant self and having done the DVD a few times now, I have to say that it is very engaging and interactive, as well as being a tough cardio work out session. Initially I didn't like the music that much, but it has grown on me and is actually motivational and puts you in a good mood!!!

I think the main difference for me was that in this DVD there was diminished squat work and on the set exercises, the arms section with weights is excluded. I thought the set execises in this DVD were shorter than Ultimate Challenge but they are quite taxing. The stretch/cool down is improved and you can really feel your muscles pull and stretch out. I think if you use the two DVD's alternatively, (Ultimate Challenge and this one) you will have the best of it all!! ... and that is what I intend to do!! :) I highly recommend you to try this or Ultimate Challenge, the results I have seen personally are brilliant - fitness levels inceased and my weight dropped from 9stone to 8stone 6lbs now, and that is purely through the exercise. The DVDs Liam and Nell produce are easy to follow routines and are the only DVDs that I have not tired of and look forward to exercising to. Well done Team Nell!!!
