The Wright Now Fitness Cross Training System is a home workout DVD programme built around a mix of strength work, stretching, core training and short bursts of cardio. While it sits in a dumbbells category, this is really a broader home fitness package designed for people who want more structure than a simple weights-only routine.
Created by Aaron Wright, the set is aimed at beginners as well as anyone wanting a fresh routine at home. It includes both longer and shorter sessions, which makes it easier to fit training around a busy week rather than committing to the same workout length every time.

Inside the 3-week, 9-disc system, you get 9 long workouts at 45 minutes and 9 short workouts at 25 minutes, plus an 8-minute cool-down stretch routine. The format looks especially useful for home users who want some flexibility in how much time they spend training on any given day.
This programme does require more than just dumbbells. The description recommends resistance bands with a door anchor, an exercise ball and a selection of dumbbell weights depending on your level. That makes it better suited to someone building a small home gym setup rather than a buyer looking for a standalone dumbbell workout DVD.
- Includes 9 long workouts and 9 short workouts
- Combines strength, flexibility, core work and cardio intervals
- Bonus 8-minute cool-down stretch routine included
- Comes with a 170-page instructional manual and nutrition manual
- Also includes a Thera-Band in the set
For beginners, this looks like a practical all-in-one option with clear guidance and a mix of workout styles. The shorter sessions may be the main selling point for home users who want a more manageable routine, while the longer sessions give you room to progress without needing a separate programme straight away.
Overall, the Cross Training System may suit buyers who want variety and a more complete home exercise plan, especially if they already own or plan to buy a few pairs of dumbbells and basic accessories. If you only want a simple dumbbell-only workout, it may feel broader than necessary, but for a mixed home training routine it offers a good amount of structure.
