| Best Workout Ever | 2010-07-26 | 5 / 5 |
| | Anyone who says this DVD was "too easy" or had bad music needs to go sit down and hush. I've been doing this workout now for two weeks, five days a week consecutively, and let me say that there wasn't ONE day where I wasn't being pushed to my limits. I've seen exceptional growth in my own fitness now that I'm done with the first level, I can't wait to add on level two, even though it looks even harder. This is the first time I've stuck with any fitness routine for more than a week and a half, and I love this DVD! Bob, as always, is great at pushing you to work your hardest. I will say that some of the contestants do exhibit poor form, but as others have noted, Bob makes up for that with ample explanation. By the time you know the routine, you can simply direct your efforts at making sure your form is on point without worrying too much about the contestants. I'm determined to finish this six week program and, in all, I think this is one of the best workout DVD's I've ever done. |
| New condition as promised | 2010-07-14 | 5 / 5 |
| | Received new as promised. Took a little longer to arrive than I would have expected, but still within the allotted time frame given. |
| Great way to kick-start your routine if you are a plus-size beginner | 2010-07-01 | 4 / 5 |
| Let me preface this by saying that I started using this DVD five days ago at 45 years of age, 5'8", and 238 lbs. I haven't worked out regularly in about five years, though I do walk my dog around the block (1-2 miles) regularly.
I haven't every seen the The Biggest Loser TV show, because I just don't like reality shows. This DVD, however, came highly recommended, and I'd read the glowing and inspiring reviews here on .
There are three levels, a warm-up and cool-down set, and some tips on using exercise equipment (dumbbells, exercise ball, etc.). You are intended to do the warm-up, then Level One for the first two weeks, and finish with the cool-down. After five days of doing Level One, I can honestly say this is probably the best workout video I've ever seen. Bob, the trainer, is highly motivating, funny, and charismatic, and I think he is the key ingredient here. The Biggest Loser contestants vary nicely in height, girth, and stamina, so you are likely to find one or two that match the level you are at.
Heba is struggling along in the back, and I'm right there with her, bless her heart. I can't do the jumping jacks because I have a strained Achilles tendon, so I'm walking in place as she does when everyone else is doing the higher impact moves. It's not a long routine, but my shirt is soaked up front when it's all said and done, and I've dropped about four pounds in five days. Yes, I'm not exaggerating, four pounds in five days. I have modified my diet in that time, usually having a 6" light subway sandwich or mixed fruit for lunch, and drinking lots of water all day and prior to each meal.
So if you are older or out of shape, or both for that matter, I think this video will motivate you to get started and to stick with it.
I'm looking forward to seeing the results after two months of this. I haven't gotten tired of it yet. Maybe that's just because I've gotten tired of feeling like crap all the time from being so overweight and out of shape. I just had a physical this week, so I plan on having my cholesterol rechecked two months from now to see how much it's dropped, and I'll post it here. |
| Too dark, just wasn't thrilled | 2010-06-23 | 3 / 5 |
| | First off, the set was too dark, making it difficult to see what was going on. I just didn't feel like I got as good as a workout as I did with Jillian's Shred or Jackie Warner's Circuit training. I guess because I was expecting more, I was disappointed. I may keep it in my rotation and do it occasionally, but it is not a 'go to' workout video for me. |
