Power Half hour is a set of 5 workouts (Ab burner, Thigh Trimmer, Bun Shaper, Arm Toner and stretch), each 30 mn. long. The intensity is above Power 90 (from what I've heard: I don't have Power 90), and below P90X. Many of the workouts include some plyo moves as well as weight moves and unweighted moves. The Ab workout has a combo of standing moves (like jumping and turning 180 degrees to engage the obliques...emphasis on the turn and not on the height) and floor work. the "Arm Toner" is actually a complete upper body workout, that uses opposing muscle group super sets throughout most of it (ie: push-ups followed by 1-arm rows).
The tech features it has are a music off option, an outtakes segment (though not all of these are actual "out"takes, as they are still in the workouts. More of a bloopers reel. Including one where Tony farts while doing a move!), closed captioning,and a segment and master timer.
Tony is goofier in this workout than in P90X, but it can give you a bit of a taste of his style.
I don't know why I don't get this one out more often (having around 200 workouts does make it tough to get to them all!), because it's time efficient and effective. I especially like the ab workout because of the standing/floor combo.

I have these work outs and like them...I haven't used them in ages though...I should pull them out on occasion when I'm short on time or as an addition to my regular routine! Thanks for reminding me, Mary! I like them...they work you good in only 30 minutes from what I remember!

LOL!
I actually found Tony more tolerable in PHH after using P90X for a while. I guess I just got more used to him or something. Kind of like a goofy brother.
I've heard he's even MORE goofy in Power 90, which has never appealed to me for several reasons, this being one of them.
