Great workout
Just coming to the last few days if this programme , it does specify that it's for men , but I found it great, s few of the exercises were obviously male focused but I adjusted them to suit me. Really loved it and I can see great results . I've just bought the Ript90 fit so looking forward to that challenge

Value for money
Ok like you I’ve read reviews on this and some seem to say they find the guys voice annoying, well I’d say he’s very good compared to some PT’s out there, this is one of those things you only get out of this what you put in , so if your looking for a fitness programme that’s doesn’t take up lots of time for a quarter of the price of the so called top players, get this and get stuck in. Only thing I’d say is it could do with a leaflet telling you which equipment is needed per workout ie dumbells, I just have a flick through night before and prepare that way. Hope this helps

I consider this set to be a good workout plan
I have just done a few of these workouts thus far. Because they all seem repetitive and basic I see myself putting the workouts to paper and doing them without the video. I consider this set to be a good workout plan. I paid $30 for the plan. Not bad. I also own P90X, Rushfilt, Supreme 90 Day and Ruthless. I would rank them in this order: 1. Rushfit 2. Supreme 90 Day 3. Ript90 4. P90X 5. Ruthless. Ript90 is ahead of P90X, because I just don't want to exercise 1 hour 6 days per week. I like Rushfit the most as it is the best routine for functional fitness and athletics (I play lots of baseball). It is also fast paced and more interesting than Supreme 90 Day, Ript90 and P90X which are similar to each other. Ruthless isn't bad. I just prefer to lift weights. I like Jody Hendricks training style the most. Steve Uria of Ruthless is obnoxious and Tony Horton is a clown. The S90 trainer, Tom Holland is similar to Jody Hendricks. I like him, too. Update: I stuck with the plan for 3 weeks and made mucho progress! I got side-tracked by whooping cough, but I am back at it, now (amazing how much strength and condition one loses after 4 weeks time). I really like that I am doing lots of pull ups with this routine and lots of pushups, too. I added a star to my original review!

Did all 90 days. Now in the best shape I've been in. I'm going back for another 90 days to maintain and improve.
I finished. I'm 48 and did all 90 days. No, I do not look like the trainer (Jody) but I do look very fit so I'm happy with the results. As Jody mentions in the videos, diet has as much to do with it as exercise. Other reviews mentioned that Jody is a likable trainer, and not an "in your face bro" kind of guy. I totally agree. There's a bit of humor thrown in that helps to keep things fun. The workouts themselves are very challenging, even after all 90 days. Another thing often mentioned by Jody is your responsibility to scale the exercises. There is always one of his trainees in the video doing an alternate scaled version of the exercise to help guide you. I found that a few of the activities were a little too high impact or too difficult for me so I scaled them down (for example using pull-down bands rather than doing pull ups). By the end, there were even a few exercises that I was able to scale up for a little extra challenge. For the most part, I was still challenged all the way through doing the routines as is. The only modification I might suggest to the program itself is that the arm workout isn't used enough. I took a few weeks off and now I'm restarting. This time I'm going to fit the arm workout into a few extra days. It's nice to see a variety of trainees used in the videos ranging from a college kid, to a mom, to a bulky business man, to an older guy (like me). It's not a bunch of super pumped body builders - just regular fit people. Don't let the workout titles scare you, they are just creative marketing. You will be sore at times but you will feel and look strong if you keep with it and eat well. Don't expect to jump right in and do a routine strict from start to finish. Do what you can and you'll notice the gains quickly. While you are waiting for your DVDs to arrive, start doing some daily push ups and squats to get yourself ready!
