I thought so too and was quickly humbled after the next few weeks...hang in there and I agree with DirtyMartini, you can make it harder by doing a little more challenging moves. Overall, I am on week 3 and I am not finding the workouts ("easy") anymore. I add HIIT after most workouts to challenge myself and still do cardio (usually spinning class) on between lifting days.
I personally am glad I didn't skip it but I completely said the same thing after the first week to week 1/2 of Stage 1.
I will be curious what you think after a few more workouts too. I also found that I needed to increase my weights. My program before was hard but I can see in this workout how I was not pushing myself hard enough and stuck VERY close to the exact 60 sec. rest time, that made it a lot harder!
