Advantages: A flexible excersize workout Disadvantages: You need a big enough floor space to really stretch out in

I noticed the woman in this dvd is excersing on a thin mat on top of a hard floor. I have hard wood floors but did not find I could do the exercises comfortably with my gym mat on the floor. We ended up buying a rug as the mat on the floor does not give enough support and the thick good exercise mats are extremely expensive.
After the workout I felt great and wanted to do more. After a period of time I mainly noticed the difference in my legs. I am only short anyway but they had a lengthened appearance. Also very defined without being bulky!
