Can someone who's doing this set tell me what equipment is required? And space? I've read references to TRX, high steps, very heavy (100+ lbs!) weights. I have a small workout space. (I do Jessica Smith's workouts fine. Enough room for CLX. Cathe -- probably not.) I have some lower weight dumbbells and the SelectTech dumbbell set. I'm interested in this set, but I don't want to buy more equipment.
And would you say it's intermediate? Advanced? Thanks. Ann |

I don't have the set yet (I just ordered it), but, from what I've picked up over on the other thread about it, you don't need a TRX system or super heavy weights. (It sounds like the TRX is used in the D2S book, but, even in the book, she shows modifications if you don't have a TRX system.) I'm not sure about a step, but none of the clips show the exercisers using one, and I'm sure you could modify if it did call for one. It also sounds like she uses a kettlebell, but shows modifications using dumbbells if you don't have a KB. It sounds like a few people thought that the first phase was too easy, but I'm planning on increasing my weights to make it harder. Hope that helps! |

Hi all -I just wrote some info about area and equipment in the longer thread about this system. Check it out and feel free to ask more if I missed info you would like to know.
If you follow the philosophy of the system and increase the weights you are using over time, then you should find the workouts very challenging. I'm sure that I won't need 100lb weights over the three months for this plan. Possibly a male who starts with a very strong foundation of strength will need that much weight??? Deb |
