Zuzana's Zcut Power strength

I know these have been out for months but I couldn't find information on impact level. Her Cardio series is sitting on the shelf because there is too much impact. I would appreciate input on the amount of jumping in the Strength workout.
Also any information on her abs workout dvd would also be appreciated.
Thanks.

I would have to say that her Power Strength is my favorite as well and it was the one I was most hesitant about. It is not as high impact as her cardio one which is why I like it better. But don't get me wrong it is still very intense because of the weights.

I don't do her strength DVDs as much as her cardio (not sure why they're great!), but if I remember there still is a bit of high impact - I know she does plyo lunges mixed in with weighted lunges in at least one of the workouts. I'm sure everything could be modified to low/no impact though, and you could still get a lot out of them.
