Powerstrike Workouts

[Roxie 1965]

Has anyone tried these or previewed them and what did you think?

Two thumbs up for her latest ones!

I just finished Powerstrike 5 yet again this morning and it's wonderful! I also have Bodystrikes and it is a great lower body workout that really burns the calories. I just ordered the Abs/Pushups one with my Christmas money and will be getting it this week to add to my collection. I don't think you can go wrong with these newest. If you haven't already, check out the clips over at Collagevideo!

How does 5 compare to the tapes? I LOOOOOVed the tapes but alas -- I finally retired my VCR.

Funny you should mention these workouts, I just did Powerstrike 1 this morning!! I don't have 4 or 5, but I'm seriously considering purchasing them. I know Powerstrike 3 wasn't very popular - but I really like it. I wish Ilaria and Patricia still instructed together.

I did Powerstrike 5 yesterday and I loved it. I've previewed Bodystrikes and it looks like a great standing, non-weighted lower body workout. I have Abs/Pushups but havent done it yet.

Can Powerstrike5 (or any of the Powerstrike DVDs for that matter) be done with a bag? Or are they designed as non-equipment workouts? I'm not familiar with Ilaria, but am interested in giving her a shot.

Thanks,

I just purchased the original Power Strike as well as Body Strikes. I did Body Strikes once and loved it. I haven't even previewed Power Strike yet but I am excited to get to it as it's always gotten great reviews around here.

I really love PS4, I liked 5 fine, but like 4 better, the reason for me is the music, 4 uses more "dancey" music, and 5 uses a lot of a "tribal" sound, I just like the dancey better.

I think 5 is a bit less intense than 1 and 2, but very fun, and a calorie burner just the same. I love all the powerstrikes.

Fitgirl, in my opinion, the Powerstrike workouts are non-euipment workouts. I have Powerstrikes 1-5 and they all get the work done without the use of a heavybag. I have a heavy bag I use with some of my other kickboxing workouts, but I've never thought to use it with the Powerstrikes, and honestly, I've never felt the need for it. I think these workouts are intense enough to get the work done without impact. Hope this helps
