Title: Not enough time given to ensure proper lunge form
Product review: My main issue with this DVD is the speed at which it moves. I actually liked that aspect a lot, until I got to the lunges. Michaels moves through the workout so quickly (which otherwise is a good thing) that it is very, very hard to ensure you're in proper lunge form the entire time, for every lunge. Even when doing these lunges in front of a mirror, which is what I used to keep myself from overextending, it's quite hard to do them perfectly when you're absolutely flying through the workout. I blew out my knee. It hurts. @*&%. I REALLY wish Gillian would slow the lunges part of the workout down just a little. I'm sure plenty of gym rats (just kidding ;) will criticize me for not having my lunge form down perfectly, but like I said - it's REALLY freakin' difficult to do when you're moving at this speed. Now I can't practice lunges at all, because my knee is all @$#%ed up. Yay.
