Relaxing exercise, great stretchingJune 15, 2008 Martulka(New york) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very good exercise dvd, specially if you are interested in stretching and feeling refreshed. It helped me stay strong and feel pretty good. And must say even though it is slow paced exercise and I thought it does not help much I found out to be wrong. I have not exercised my last pregnancy and what a difference in how I felt. So, it does make difference even though sometimes you might feel like it does not, specially the stretching helped me feel very refreshed.
Best Pregnancy Fitness DVDJune 15, 2008 Heather Jeffcoat(Sherman Oaks, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Tracey's upbeat personality made this a fave workout when I was pregnant. And as a Physical Therapist that also treats pregnant ladies, it is so important to follow certain exercise guidelines and precautions, which she considers throughout her video. Her cueing is excellent for muscles that we all need to get strong during (and after) pregnancy. I did regular cardio and Pilates throughout my pregnancy and still found the exercises challenging as long as I didn't "cheat" through them. The modifications she provides are great when an exercise proves to be too difficult. I highly recommend this video for all ladies that want a CHALLENGING but SAFE workout!!

I love ALL of Tracey's dvds!! When I was pregnant I did this dvd and it gave me much more energy afterwards. Tracey is so encouraging!!
Also check out her Sexy in 6! I've lost almost 20 pounds post-baby using those workouts and her food plan! All while chasing 2 babies and working!!
Excellent Video for Yoga/Pilate BeginnersJune 14, 2008 C. Alfano I used this video before I was pregnant and all during my pregnancy (minus the few weeks in the first trimester where I couldn't do anything!). It's a great workout to do if you are new to pilates and yoga. What I loved about the video is that it challenged me and I was able to modify the moves based on where I was during my pregnancy. I also liked that fact that weights were incorporated into the upper body workout and that the cool down portion of the video showed how you can do these stretches with a partner. For someone who isn't extremely flexible, it helps to have a partner put a little added pressure into a stretch so you can get the maximum benefit of it.
Amazing DVD Tracey is a true proJune 14, 2008 Fit Gal(NJ) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This by far one of the best Pregnancy DVD's on the market. Tracey is a wonderful, upbeat and very sincere instructor. A true pleasure to workout with and love her accent! I have used this DVD for both pregnancies and I swear this is what helped me recover so quickly! The first section is for your core and [...] with mainly Pilates and some Yoga exercises. The second section is lower body which helped me build strength and keep me strong for my delivery. The Third section was upper body with light weights and the last section which I really loved and so did my husband was the partner stretching. The stretches helped my lower back issues. I am near the end of my second Pregnancy and still have the energy to keep doing the video a few times a week. This is a perfect conditioning workout through your pregnancies!
