In the companion video to her upper body workout, Kathy Smith lowers her attention to the butt, thighs, and calves. Once again, Smith opts for high weight/low repetition routines. This way, she reasons, time is saved and toning gives way to body sculpting. Smith uses traditional moves such as lunges and leg lifts to strengthen. Most of the motions can be performed with weights. Therefore, Secrets of a Great Total Body, Vol. 1 appeals to both beginners and the intermediate student. For those interested in a solid low-impact way to tone muscles, volume two is a good video. Viewers seeking a more "ripped" physique or that daily burn would be better off in a gym.
