Even my big buns could do this... and FEEL IT! January 15, 2007

Quick Stats: I'm a 35 year old 5'3" 145lb single mother of three teenagers with a flabby butt and legs that needed a good workout I could actually endure and stick with!
I absolutely adore this work-out DVD. I have about 20 DVDs that do nothing more than collect dust and another ten that I actually use. Of the ones used this one remains at the top of the list in the DVD Player in my bedroom as a daily workout each morning.
Each exercise is short and concentrated on the areas advertised. I love how it's done by a timer rather than repetitious counting and you can keep an eye on your progress via the "dotted start to finish line" that's shown on the screen at all times.
The instructor is also easy to listen to and encouraging without being too boring or too silly and annoying. He does a great job! And the film does a good job of letting you see exactly how each exercise is done rather than zooming in on the 'cute face' like many do it gives a good overall look and a few zooms to the areas of the body that actually matter.
You really can't go wrong with this workout DVD.... Honest!
No problem for those with little motivation! December 27, 2006
J. Olson (MI, USA)
I have had problems in the past regarding my motivation to do workout plans. This series (buns and legs in particular) is great for me because it's only 8 minutes long! No huge commitments must be made to keep up with this program! I'm positive this series will work wonders on any with motivation problems.
 Effective, no frills, low impact workout (& great bonus aerobics tracks) November 24, 2006

I initially skeptical and thought it would be too easy. But after I tried it, I found it to be a VERY EFFECTIVE workout. I totally feel the burn (even though I've done exercises similar to these before on workouts like The Firm's Buns/Hips tapes which I love). One of the keys to it being so effective is that NO TIME IS WASTED in between movements, you are constantly doing 30-45 seconds of one motion, then doing 30-45 seconds of another motion.
Instead of counting the number of repititions, the instructor goes by time; I like this because beginners can easily do the exercises at a slower pace if the need to, without being distracted by what the instructor is counting. Also, since each exercise is only 30-45 seconds, I don't get bored with it.
I liked the "countdown" indicator on the side of the screen because it gave me an idea of how much more is left of the workout, so it motivates to just finish up the next 5 minutes, 4 minute, 3 minutes.
This is a no frills workout, doing LOW IMPACT (no jumping or marching) ISOLATION exercises. The instructor has good form. I think this workout is challenging for even intermediate users. For advance people, all of the exercises can be done with ankle weights (I would recommend trying it without weights first, then once you get the hang of things try a 1 lb ankle weight, then increase weight as you get stronger)
A nice thing about this video that isn't advertised is the fact that is has several different BONUS WORKOUTS that are very cardio, so this workout ought to rival the other mix-and-match exercise dvd's out there.
BUNS - 8 minutes
squats
lunges
butt kick (leg shoot outs while in table position)
bent leg press (leg lifts while in table position with knee bent)
butt lift (leg lifts while in table position with straight leg)
STANDING - 8 minutes
squats
quad lift
outer thigh raise, butt press
inner thigh raise
hamstring curl, butt lift
outer thigh lift, squat(if you have bad knees, you can do just the outer thigh lift)
lunge front/back
bent leg inner thigh raise
plie, calf raises
BONUS TRACKS
Stretch 8min
Jamaica Me Swet' 10min (dance aerobics)
Gilad Step Aerobics 20min
Advanced Step & Slide 20min
The Workout is as Hard as You Want Your Buns To Be August 11, 2005

I just love these 8 minute workouts. I do the abs one every day and can see the results where I never did before. The buns workout is a real killer. The sweat pours down my face and I always swear at Jamie and call him a sadistic SOB for putting me through this torture, but I keep coming back to it. It feels good when you get done and your buns are burning as they say they will. I also do the arms workout when I am in a hurry. I do alot of walking so I usually skip the legs workout. Don't listen to the negative comments, these are fantastic workouts!
