DVD : 10 Minute Solution: Blast Off Belly FatIn association with Amazon.comRating:  - Don't waste your money! I own five workout DVDs and most of them are easy to follow. This workout DVD is not created for the beginners or people like me who have been working out everyday for the past years! Just working through the whole tape I thought that I was in the army training section! Rating:  - Works My Abs Hard!I love this routine, as it is so effective at helping me build my abs. I was especially impressed with the Six Pack Abs segment. I can't get through the entire segment without feeling like my abs are on fire! I can feel it the next day, which is a sure sign of a good workout that has challenged my muscles. Highly recommended. Rating: - great varietyGreat variety of exercises. I liked all of the workouts, some are more challenging than others, but it's good to have different levels. The exercises are easy to follow; I definitely recommend it. Rating: - Fantastic ab workout!Several of my fitness magazines recently featured articles about how a recent study has shown that certain pilates-based exercises (like the One Hundred, Plank, Side Plank, and Roll Ups) are better for deeply working the abdominal muscles than exercises like the standard crunch. I already own many abs workouts, but none of mine feature those exercises, so I purchased this workout about two weeks ago since this DVD includes all of the exercises that the study mentioned. So far, it's great! Suzanne Bowen's personality is cheerful and pleasant, and she gives excellent form pointers during each workout. Several other reviews explain each of the five sections of this DVD in more detail, so I will just say that she makes each workout challenging and effective -- you will definitely feel the burn if you concentrate on proper form during the ten minutes! Suzanne is also very good at showing modifications for beginning, intermediate, and advanced exercisers. Since the five segments are so short (about ten minutes each), they are easy to tack onto the end of another workout. I've been doing one of the sections three times a week, and I'm already noticing good results. I have many workouts that I don't do since the instructor is boring or rubs me the wrong way, but Suzanne is great and I love her personality. I'm definitely going to look for other workouts from her! Rating: - Very good, doesn't seem like eternity from start to finish, and she's enthusiastic!I bought this DVD from amazon and I was expecting an okay video, based on the reviews I had read on here previously. Boy, was I surprised! The 5 10-minute workouts seem more like 2 minutes and the woman is really enthusiastic, but not creepily so as so many fitness video instructors are (Fake smiles are just creepy!). She gives you a moderate/advanced pose, then tells you how to modify it to a beginner's pose. You don't need a whole bunch of equipment- just you, workout clothes, socks, shoes, a towel for the first section, and the video! No bands, no balls, no blocks. Just you and the video! I hate having to buy all of this special equipment the video says you just HAVE TO have. This one is amazing, and it burns your abs (in a good way)! I recommend this to anyone who has a hard time finding time in their day for physical fitness. Since I enjoyed this one so much, I'm going to buy other ones! |
