Rocked My Body November 18, 2008 K. Greenheck This is an excellent workout video!! I am a long distance runner, former athlete and I exercise regularly. I have taken several Pilates classes at my local gym but they can't compare to the results I got from this video! I used to think that I had to spend hours on a treadmill and wake up the next day barely able to walk to get a 'real workout', but Jon and his video changed my attitude! Though I was in good shape to begin with I noticed sexy definition in my abs and upper thighs that no other work out has given me once I started this program. On top of that, the coordinated breathing that accompanies the exercises and Jon's soothing voice really relaxes me. Highly recommended for those of all fitness levels!!!
Effective but not death-defying November 17, 2008 M. Heller One caveat, I've only done the beginner workout so far. I wanted an instructor that my husband would feel comfortable with (i.e. a man), and something that would be challenging for me while not too hard for my husband. We both enjoy the beginner workout, which I can get through easily but still get a workout, and he can't quite get through yet (he's very much a beginner to working out, much less Pilates). From watching the second workout it looks like it would be a challenge for me. In terms of the instruction, it's the most clear that I've seen on a Pilates video so far-- it breaks things down in an easy to understand way and makes it possible to focus on the movement rather than the screen.
this video is a must have!! November 15, 2008 M. Friedman (San Diego, CA) I have tried any and every kind of workout video that's out there, but this is the real-deal. John is an amazing instructor, with easy to follow steps and precise instructions, I guarantee you will get the pilates workout that you've been hoping for. Before this DVD, I have never tried pilates but this workout is great for beginners as well as any intermediates. I highly recommend this video, it is a must have! If you want to get in shape, have fun at the same time and feel great about yourself please buy this!! I myself have noticed the results and since I bought it I continue to use it everyday. John will teach you everything that you need to know for you to get the body and core strength that you are looking for!
an amazing core workout. November 14, 2008 J. Walker Pilates is an amazing core workout and Jon is a great instructor. His instruction is very clear and straightforward. I am not the most coordinated person, but his explanations make the exercises simple to carry out, although not necessarily always easy :). The workout is intense, but always leaves you feeling satisfied and strengthened. I highly recommend this video.
Great Work-Out!! November 14, 2008 Burk W. Beadle If you are looking for a great workout that is easy to follow and can be done right in your living room, this is the DVD for you! It only takes about 30-40 minutes to complete a workout. I could definitely see results after only using the DVD for two weeks. I have become so much more confident in myself and can't go 3 days without having my pilates workout!
