 Easy workout dvd. February 18, 2008
I would only use this if you are not used to working out it is truly as it says only for beginners.
 Love this workout! February 12, 2008
I'm new on the fitness circuit, so I didn't know what to expect. That being said, this is an awesome workout! You can truly feel every muscle burning! Also being that each workout is ten minutes long, you feel like you're just flying through! It's perfect for a beginner, such as myself. I use it everyday and I cannot wait to get more 10 minute workout dvds!
Pretty Good January 11, 2008

This is a pretty good dvd. You can mix up the workout or do just one. The instructor gave clear directions and was pleasant. As it say's it's for beginners so if your looking to lose weight and your fit or at an intermediate or advanced fitness level this won't do much more for you than maintain unless you use heavier weight's in the arms section and hold weights while doing the legs section. All of the exercises were effective and time efficent. I use this on the day's when Im really sore or tired it's not too taxing, but it maintains my muscle tone. It's also low to moderate impact so it's easy on the knees and back.
Good for Beginners and Light Days November 24, 2007

Although I am now an intermediate level exerciser, I still use this dvd for light days when I don't feel like doing a hard-core toning work-out. I think it's excellent for individuals who are starting-out with exercise, and need an introduction to toning. The exercises are straight forward and easy to accomplish. However, there are a lot of squats and lunges in the buns and thigh section of this dvd, so if you have bad knees, you will want to be mindful of this. Also, for the arms section of the dvd, she tells beginners to start off with 5 lb. dumbbells. I wouldn't recommend that. If you are a beginner, you should start with 2 lb. or 3 lb. first, then build-up from there (that's what I did when I was at the beginning level).
The only drawback with this dvd is that fact that it IS fairly simple. Therefore, you will probably master the moves quickly, and be ready to "move-on." To help build upon the intensity, I use hand weights for the buns and thigh section. You could also use ankle weights for these sections, but I don't. I rather use my dumbbells. With the abs and arm section, however, there is no way to intensify these sections, so once you master the routine, they will strictly be used for your light days only. I also wasn't overly impressed with the cool down stretch on this dvd. I found it a bit dry and dull.
The instructor, Cindy Witmarsh is pretty good. Her instructions are clear and precise. Her personality, at first, was a bit annoying for me, but she is not overly cheery and smily like Denise Austin.
Overall, this is a good dvd. I wouldn't recommend it for intermediate level or above exercisers because you would become bored with it all too easily. However, I did get results with this dvd during my beginning stages of exercising, and I noticed a difference in my thighs and buns (the sections I use the most off of this dvd). So, it is effective, just not for the long term because your body will want something more challenging in the later stages.
Love It! October 18, 2007
Love this DVD! One of my favorite ones. She is very encouraging without being annoying.
