I am going through chemo and want to exercise but run out of energy. This DVD is perfect for me. It has 10 minutes of intense workout in the belly, butt or thigh area. I do one every day and feel refreshed. It is helping me stay toned and feel great!

These are good, solid toning segments for time-crunched days. Chris Freytag cues well and is motivational.

Movie Reviews
This is not for people with bad knees!!!
Shannon | Oswego, IL United States | 01/24/2006

"I was disappointed overall by the workout. The cover itself is misleading as you spend very little time on the mat. Having bad knees, I was looking for more of a mat workout than squats and lunges. Just a warning for those out there with bad knees like myself!"
Solid intermediate level toning for the lower body

"This is a nice short, challenging, and effective workout. I liked the variety of exercises and that there was a good blend of cardio and floorwork. I found the thigh toning section using handweights to be particularly challenging. A good intermediate level toner for the lower body. The instructor was very good, although she was a bit off of the beat on the music from time to time."
Good intermediate toning workout

"I really like this dvd. I actually like all the Prevention series that I've seen so far. In this workout they use proven exercises for maximum effectiveness. Chris Freytag is the instructor again and she cues well and is very down to earth making the whole programme enjoyable and not overly intimidating if you are new to working out. She will definately keep you motivated. There is your usuall pilates type moves, crunches, squats and lunges to name a few, but these same exercises are around because they are definately effective. Trust me, you will feel good after this. Anyone will get a good workout from this."
Belly, Butt and Thighs

"I really like this video. Some work out videos that I've tried are confusing. This one is very easy to learn the first time doing it. You can do one workout a day, two or all three."
Toning Experts Were Right - This Is Excellent

"Toning Experts Were Right - This Is Excellent
The paper I read (Argus Leader) ran an article where they had fitness experts review DVDs in various categories and whether they were "Worth The Workout". This DVD was highly rated across all categories
-Works everything out,
-it was not boring
- a beginner could do it but experts would not get bored
-the instructor was upbeat and encouraging
- the experts themselves would definitely use the DVD again
Anyway I picked up all four DVDs (there were recommendations in the general category of Cardio, Toning, Pilates and Yoga) and so far am extremely happy with all of the titles they recommended. (In fact I have some of the titles that they stated were very poor titles, and they were right there also.)
So if you are looking for an excellent Toning DVD, look no further, the experts were right on the money in their review."
