This is a workout video I checked out because my friend mentioned it. It's a workout mixing Latin dancing with intense cardio workout which makes for a great exercise. It is pretty entertaining and it really gets your heart pumping. I was able to get a pretty good workout in the hour I was exercising. It teaches you Latin dancing which is good if you can't dance. I became much more...

I must admit I used to laugh when I heard of anyone doing a Billy Blanks workout. I was much younger and thinner when the Tae Bo series was released.After many years and many pounds, I decided to give Billy's Boot Camp a try. I liked the idea of being in a team enviornment without leaving the comfort of my living room. I am also an Army veteran so the boot camp theme really appealed to ...

I had done some pilates classes with a real instructor at a local gym and after my membership expired, I decided to try the late-night informecial special of Winsor Pilates. It comes in a DVD with step-by-step guide and a 20 minute workout that you do 3 times a week for "total body sculpting" and it looked easy enough. The first thing that I was not aware about was the small print in ...

Rainbeau Mars is the creator and instructor of Ra'yoka, she is pleasant and not at all annoying like some other instructors. Her instruction is easy to follow, is clear, and involves no fancy...

I have been doing Tae Bo for about 14 years now and I love it! I started with some girls from work and was addicted. I have been adding to my collection of workouts over the years. I was super excited when I found this set at Costco a few years ago.The Tae Bo Amped series includes 5 full workouts:Jump Start Cardio - 41 minutesFat Burn Accelerator - 52 minutesFull Throttle - 55 minutesCore ...

Before owning a gym membership, I was always looking for ways to get a good workout that would compliment my running.  A friend lent me her Billy Blanks Tae Bo DVD to try. The instructions were very clear, and before beginning the workout, Billy Blanks tells you how each move should look and feel. Once the music begins, the workout is fairly challenging but Billy Blanks is encouraging and ...

I bought this workout dvd on recommendation from a co-worker and I am very glad I did. The Biggest Loser Cardio Workout DVD is great especially for myself as a beginner! You get to choose your own workout plan as the dvd features three levels of cardio workouts.Warm UpLevel 1- Bob is the instructer and you get a 20 minutes bootcamp that works all of your body!Level 2- Jillian is the trainer wit...

In my previous gym, not only can we do weights and other exercises, the owner allows us to use his TV and DVD player for workout videos. It was fun because there were many of us who will just join in the activity in order to heat their bodies up prior to their weight training. Even the guys join in, too.The 10-minute workout is supposed to be for people who do not have a lot of time to exercise...

I bought this product because it looked different. It is all about learning Latin Dance while exercising. It shows you how to do each move and shows you different views of how to do it. At first you are clumsy at performing the moves, but once you get into the groove of it, it comes more naturally. These videos kick your butt, and you most deffinitely feel it the next day. You will find muscles...

Richard Simmons Sweatin' To The Oldies is inspirational, no matter what age  you are. Can you believe he's celebrating 20 years in motivating others to exercise?I came across Richard Simmons introducing his 7 piece DVD exercise set on QVC, a few weeks ago. I had purchased his original VHS Sweatin' To The Oldies almost 20 years ago, but the VHS tape has since disappeared. So whe...

I purchased a Wii game system for my husband as a Christmas gift.  I considered getting the Wii Fit system, but couldn't justify spending quite that much.  I opted for the Wii My Fitness Coach instead.  The Wii My Fitness Coach  is a workout class on your tv.  The instructor is female, with a pleasing voice who cheers you on while she works out with you.When you beg...

This DVD consists of eight workouts for your abs.  Four are moderate, four are advanced.  Some of the workouts are eight minutes long, some are nine minutes.  There is a woman leading the workout and giving instructions, and there are two other people working out with her.  The motivational level is great, and they don't waste any time getting right into the workout, so ...

I just got this out of the library.  I found it significantly harder than the 2 Leslie Sansome videos that I own (Walk Away the Pounds High Calorie Burn 2 Miles, and Walk Away the Pounds Express Brisk Walk 2 Miles).It contains 2 DVDs.  The first DVD is called "Fast Start" and is supposed to be a 1 or 2 mile walk.  The second DVD is "3 Fast Miles."The "Fas...

I love the Walk Away the Pounds dvd's by Leslie Sansone. They are a great no-excuse method of working out. You don't need to bundle up and go outside in the rain or snow or hop in the car to walk at the mall...you can walk in the comfort of your own home.You may wonder exactly how much of a work out walking can be, but you would be surprised. It's a super great way to work up a swea...

After hearing so much about the benefits of Tai Chi, I decided to take up Tai Chi. But before I face my real master I wanted to do some serious practice with workout videos so that I can follow the real workout faster too. Hence I buy this workout video from Amazon.com.Pros: The movements are definitely for beginners and does not require much flexibility which is very suitable for beginners lik...

I love the show Girls Next Door, which features the girlfriends of Hugh Hefner.  They have recently made their own workout DVD.  In the DVD the three girls have their own version of the workouts that they like to do.  What I really like about this video is that the workouts are simple, quick but at the same time, I know that I am doing something for myself.  Holly does the...

  This video really does provide you with an amazing workout. I needed something easy that I could do at home to help tone up my thighs and my behind. After reading reviews of many different videos online, I decided the original Buns of Steel was the one for me.When I first started to play the tape, I couldn't stop laughing. It is VERY dated, but once you get past the bad music, eighti...

For the last three years, I have used the Aero Kaebo work out video as my additional exercise regimen. It is easy and slow, but it is real fat burner. It is actually a Filipino production and lasts only 40 minutes for the full workout. But it also includes mat training exercise and a 10 minute short workout.Although it is slow and easy I would perspire already about 8 minutes into the work out....

This is an easy aerobics video that is aimed at people who don't want anything too complicated.  There are only four basic moves -- marching in place, knee lifts, kicks, and kick backs -- with a few simple variations.The video runs for half an hour, including a short stretching session at the end (there's no stretch at the beginning).  About two-thirds of the way through, the ...

I love all the Walk Away The Pounds workouts, but the Super Fat Burning 3 Mile Walk is without a doubt one of my favorites. Walk Away The Pounds is great for someone like me, who isn't very coordinated - in other words, I'm pretty bad at all those "dance" workouts. It's easy, maybe even fun, and it goes by fast. Leslie Sansone is a very motivating, energetic instructor (pe...
