I really liked this one. Poses are described in details. Advantages and drawbacks are crearly described. Good to have it as knowledge compendium.
It is hard to excercise while using a book and remembering whole sequence isn't easy at the beggining.
I will give it a rating after finishing the program as it is supposed to be waight lost training - will see how it works.
