I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this workout since the description of it both here on Amazon and on Jari's website were pretty vague. Since I have all seven of Jari's previous workouts and really like them, though, I pre-ordered this workout since I always like what she does. This workout definitely marks a new direction for Jari -- and it's a good one!Basically, there are four premixes on the main menu that you can choose from: the Complete Workout, the High/Low Workout, the Dance Workout, and the Weights/Abs Workout. If you choose to do the Complete Workout, the entire thing comes in at just around 65 or 70 minutes long. The idea behind the Complete Workout is that she has you do 2-3 minutes of high- and low-impact routines and 3 minutes of dance moves that are alternated. In some of Jari's more recent workouts, she alternates weight and cardio segments, but in this newest workout, you do all your cardio, and then you do the weight and ab work at the end, once you've finished your cardio. From what Jari said in the intro to the workout, the idea is to bust through any weight loss plateaus and shake up your routine a bit.There are some aspects of this workout that are definitely new for Jari. The warm-up section only has her -- with none of her usual backup crew, and it felt sort of rushed to me. Also, the biggest surprise to me was that the Dance section isn't led by Jari -- it's led by a woman named Angie who has her own crew of backup dancers. There are no male background exercisers in this workout, which was another surprise since Jari usually includes at least one male.From what Jari also said in the introduction to this video, the Weights segment is designed to be an update of Slim and Lean, and I found that the exercises in this section definitely did remind me a lot of Slim and Lean. Instead of doing compound moves where you work legs and an upper body part at the same time (which Jari's last few workouts have been like), this workout focuses on just working one body part (chest, shoulders, etc.) at a time in isolated moves.Also, since the weights section moves pretty quickly, Jari doesn't explain form. For that reason, I wouldn't recommend this workout for beginners, but would suggest getting one of Jari's earlier workouts so you can learn proper form.Here is a breakdown of the Complete Workout:--Warm-Up (just Jari by herself)--Salsa section (led by Angie and her crew of backup dancers)--Alternating Knee and Heels (hi/low led by Jari and with her usual crew)--Latin section (led by Angie again; builds on earlier Salsa section)--Jacks (led by Jari)--Jazz dance (led by Angie)--Guitar Knee (led by Jari)--Disco section (led by Angie)--Heel Kicks (led by Jari)--Funky dance (led by Angie)--Knees Up (led by Jari)--Hip Hop (led by Angie)--Heels Up and Cooldown (led by Jari, but Angie joins the Jari group)**move into Weights and Abs section (this whole section is just led by Jari)**--Squat/Hamstring track--Chest and Triceps track (the chest track is one of the hardest on any of Jari's workouts!)--Back and Wide Back track--Biceps and Shoulders track--Abs--Stretch and CooldownAs far as the weight exercises go, a few of the weight moves are from her previous workouts, but one of the things I really like about Jari's videos is that she always comes up with new weight moves, and this workout is no exception.The dance and hi/low portions were also a lot of fun to do! I had to push myself in a few of the dance sections to get my heart rate up there, but it was a fun change from the last few Jari workouts that use the step for the cardio sections. In fact, there is no step used for this workout at all, which makes set-up nice and easy.Some of the music is from her previous workouts, but it wasn't too noticeable. The music for the weights section was great!The biggest negative I see with this workout is that if you do the Complete Workout (which is how I intend to use it), your heart rate drops between each dance and hi/lo aerobics segment since the segment ends, and a screen comes up that tells you what's coming next. It doesn't flow very well, so I found myself doing jumping jacks or jogging in place to keep my heart rate up. There also isn't a lot of explanation by Angie in the dance segments, but she only has you do two or three moves in each section, and I found that as long as I was moving, I got my heart rate up -- even if I couldn't keep up and look as graceful as the dancers!Overall, this is a fun new workout. If you like Jari's other DVD's, then you will probably also really like this one. I've gotten great results from using her workouts for four to six weeks at a time (getting more definition and losing body fat), and I can see myself using this one a lot. Despite its negatives, I still give it five stars since others may not think that the problematic areas I noted are problematic.I'll also try to update my review after I've done it a few more times.UPDATE ON 2/5/10: After doing this workout a second time, I realized that the break segments between the dance and hi/lo segments really aren't too long at all -- so my heart rate did a nice job of staying up there. In fact, the hi/lo segments are tough enough that the dance segments provided a nice recovery. One big negative, though, is that the hi/lo segments just start in midstream; this was probably meant to keep your heart rate high, but it was odd editing since some segments started with Jari and the background exercisers in the middle of a move. Jari's hi/lo sections were also classic "old school" hi/lo aerobics: lots of knee lifts, jacks, etc. Two of the background exercisers and Jari are modifying and doing the low-impact version in each segment.Jari's warm-up is still much too fast for me! I felt like she was going at warp speed. Also, in her hi/lo sections, there are five back-up gals, and the set/screen almost felt too cluttered with six people in front of me. Like another reviewer said, the set and outfits are still really dark on this workout, but that doesn't bother me too much. I do prefer the brighter set and clothes on her earlier workouts, but the darkness isn't too bad, and I've gotten used to it in her last few workouts.I also agree that the weights portion is where this workout really excels. I loved the techno music, and this section of the workout felt really high energy. True, this section is short (about 30 minutes long), but I really loved it and can see myself doing this section a lot on its own if I want a quick weight workout. There isn't as much focus on the legs as there is in Jari's other workouts, but my legs really felt the hi/lo aerobics sections, so I felt like they got a good workout overall.Other than that, it was still a fun workout the second time through, despite the few negative aspects of it. For me, this had good "fun factor" and I can see myself doing this one a lot.
