Enough Variety

I use a lot of different work out tapes and have incorparated this into my weekly routine and I really like both workouts and you can mix and match…
Short but effective
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is a very versatile DVD. When I’m short on time, I’d pick this one because when I’m done, I’d truly feel that I had a good workout. On cardio day, I’d do the Speed Interval training on my rebounder so it would be easier on my knees and on strength training day, I’d do the Advanced Abs followed by the Muscle Toning routine. I use the warm up portion from this DVD and I just add a little more stretching on my own at the end. The Muscle Toning part where you’d have your arms above your head while doing squats for 90 seconds was VERY challenging. During the first round, I had 5 lb dumbbells on each hand and I almost didn’t finish it so the second time around, I used 3 lb dumbbells and I was breathing hard after 90 seconds. I’d be sore the next day or 2 after doing this routine…Highly recommend this DVD. It’s short but very effective in my opinion.
Pleasantly Surprised

Very good and challenging workout, also the dvd is very flexible you’re able to pick out how many days a week you want to workout 3,4,5, or 6. You can even make up you own workouts. I’m a advance exerciser, and this workout challenged me! both the circuit, and speed interval (also know as HIIT) I’ve never found a HIIT workout on a dvd.(HIIT mean high intensity interval training). I found the ab portion really good the dvd had two seprate workouts for the abs, both beginner/intermediate and advance. The only negatives no variety, the same warm up is used for all the workouts, and the warm up is kinda boring, and it didn’t have a cool down on the circuit weight part, and the cool down on the HIIT part was way too short for such an intense cardio workout. So you’ll have to do your own strecthing at the end. That being said I really, really like this workout
Awesome DVD

I love these workouts. I’ve been using this video on and off for over a year (I mix it with others for muscle confusion). Anybody who claims it’s a breeze isn’t challenging themselves…UP THE WEIGHT! On some exercises I use 8x the weight he’s using…I’m sure he could too, but he’d be grunting instead of talking you through it.
The instructor is motivating and not (too) annoying like some workout videos. I need this because otherwise I’ll quit when it becomes exhausting and I don’t have a workout partner.
Have introductions/descriptions elsewhere, please
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
Good workout, with an instructor who cues well. Countdowns for the timed segments. Some beginner modifications.
What I didn’t like:
When you have a separate intro section, and this DVD does, introduce your fellow exercisers there, not in the workout segments. You get tired of hearing the intros each and every time. Same with the workout breakdown/technique explanations/equipment required, do it elsewhere, so that you’re not just standing there wasting time.
Warning to those who don’t like high-impact cardio, this DVD has some, and little in the way of modifications. Wouldn’t be quite so bad if it were done on grass or a mat or carpet. I wish people would remember that “aerobic” doesn’t necessarily have to be rough on the joints.
3.5 stars.

I have been using this DVD through Netflix and as a person who is lethargic, I am still in the basic set of exercises. However, I have examined a number of workout videos and did not care for them, here’s why:
* In most DVDs, either the camera work, or the instructor leave you guessing as to what you are supposed to be doing. The instructor is excellent about explaining and cuing you to the next move.
* The instructors don’t necessarily explain what benefit you get out of the exercises, but this instructor does. Additionally, he will remind you of points to be concerned in the middle of an exercise so you can improve your workout and form.
* Most DVDs are too slow or too fast. This one lets you hurt yourself at your own pace — if you are not ready, you stick to basic. If you need more of a workout, you do the intermediate which is shown in parallel with the basic.
One minor update: It is good enough that I ordered it, so as not to tie up my Netflix slot any longer!
Great workout!

I really like this workout DVD and it’s one of the ones I use consistently. Its offers great all around exercises for the whole body. Even though it’s a little tough, it’s fairly short and sweet.
so-so

As far as a workout goes, it’s pretty similar to all the other Abs Diet workouts (including women’s) so if you’re looking to change up your routine, pick something else that’s more fun. Also, the main instructor guy does not have all of his stuff together. He seems almost lost throughout most of it. One good thing about this DVD though is that it has options for a 3-day, 4-day, 5-day, and 6-day routine which is great. But in hindsight, I should have chosen something else.
My #1 Ab Workout!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I am a big fan of ab workouts on DVD and this is definately my favorite. The intensity on the advanced ab segment is great. He go’s through each exercise for one minute and it is challenging!I haven’t used the remaining workout segments.
Great Intro Workout
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I love all of these workouts. Great instructor. The music is fun and the setting is very appealing. It is so much fun that you don’t notice how hard your body is working. It is is a good introductory workout that will get results.

I tried to lose weight for months before I was able to find a way to successfully lose weight. Instead of rewriting the article I found, you can read it here.
I swear, you could write a best-selling book about your everyday adventures! A drunken chef roasting a pig for 200 people in the pouring down rain–what an image! We also need more stories from the past about Mrs. Dexter. I will never forget the story about the loaf of bread that moved on her counter because a mouse (or rat) was in it!
So sorry to hear you fell and hurt your hip. Best have it x-rayed if it doesn't feel better soon.

this sounds like alot of fun although I'd be cursing it out too I think, lol. I just got satellite dish so I want to check out what kind of workout programs that has. I might wind up working out at home to to offset the expense of having it so its good to read this review! The biggest loser sounds like a really good game too! Are there any games that concentrate on weightlifting?
