Spinervals StrEndurance DVD Review

My husband bought this for me for Christmas.When I finally received it (had to deal with several back-orders from the shipper...not an amazon company), I was really disappointed.I own MANY of the Spinervals DVDs and have always found them very enjoyable and an excellent workout.This particular workout was intense, but was not modifiable for anyone who might have low back or knee problems.It took my low back several days to get over the initial workout...and I am not a wimp!!I usually do the Juan Carlos Santana therapy ball core workouts...so I'm pretty strong.However, the squat thrusts and some of the jumping jacks really got to my low back.I ended up swapping this DVD for another Spinervals choice.If you are a person that is not injured and can do plyometrics and jumping jack type activities, this IS a very good workout.However, if you are in the "over-40" triathlon sprint crowd that has to watch out to not stir up prior injuries...then you might find this workout a little too jarring.
