express workouts February 25, 2010 Kay Cavanaugh (Joplin, mo) My husband and I have worked out with Gilad for several years with buns of steel and arms of steel plus some of his other tapes. His new express workout is wonderful. We feel that we can do these workouts because of our previous workouts with him. Our arms and legs are strong. But it was time to mix it up a bit and this new CD fits the bill. We love the variety.

Great resistance exercises! January 22, 2010 Avid Reader (St. Louis, MO) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This DVD set is a great buy for both workout quality and quantity. The DVD is well chaptered and you can go right to the specified workout and the workout starts right away. For some good ideas on how to use these DVDs, go to Gilad's website, click on Express Workouts and you can download 8 week rotations for beginner and intermediate.
Workouts: Don't be fooled by the 10 minute workouts - you will fatigue the muscle worked during each workout. The cardio workouts are fun and easy to follow and they will warm you up to do the resistance training, but they will not qualify as cardio workouts. I especially liked the core workouts. You will see some of Gilad's usual ab routines, but he throws in some Pilates and yoga exercises and works the back which many core workouts ignore. These were pretty thorough core workouts for 10 minutes.
Setting: Not Gilad's usual setting, but who can argue with an ocean view in Hawaii?
Music: Typical of Gilad's shows, the music is not exciting but not distracting or annoying.
Crew: There are different people working out in each section. There are always 2 people (both men and women) working out with Gilad who are always demonstrating perfect form.
Equipment Needed: You only need dumbbells for these workouts and a little space in front of your TV.
Instructor: Gilad is the best! He is positive and encouraging without being over the top or irritating. His cueing and explanation of proper form is excellent as always. He was a little more down to business and not as light hearted as he is on Fit TV.
I have used these DVDs over and over because there is no dread factor with these workouts and I know I am getting a good workout.
Gilad: 15 Targeted Express Workouts October 11, 2009 Jo Mater 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Excellent instruction, great variation, and great results. Again, at the introduction, as in the other exercise video I purchased, the first part of the audio is missing. Also missing is additional information that you would get if you purchased the video series directly from Gilad's website (You only get the DVD's) I would have given the purchase a 5 star rating if everything was included. Next time I will purchase directly from Gilad's website
Excellent workout video! September 3, 2009 Garami This Gilad's workout video is excellent. If you want to keep in shape and keep with your working life, this video is for you. It is divided in several exercises that you can select if you don't want to follow all exercises. I do it that way, I select some exercises and make them in the morning or at night. It helps me being healthy in my busy life!.
