Loved it ~!!! June 1, 2008 snowie78 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Instructor was easy to follow, poses were not too hard and didn't strain any part of my back. Loved it and now got my sister hooked on it too !!!!
Easy to follow, fun & fast May 8, 2008 MC 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Liked this dvd very much. I've been exercising for years but never took pilates before & found it easy to follow. I didn't find the instructor annoying. She has to talk & wasn't overly chatty. I use this dvd & others & find it to be very effective in toning the body. When I'm home I use it early in the morning & it's just as good as going to a gym. I can work out whenever I want (preferably morning hours) and not contend to hours kept at a gym. I've never taken Yoga before & enjoy the combination. The dvd is not strenuous, yet your body feels every movement, your heart rate goes up & you could feel the burning.
It's a keeper! May 1, 2008 Rina Perez (Grayslake, IL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this DVD 'coz I liked Ellen in Crunch's Burn and Firm Pilates. In my opinion, she cues very well. Her programs may be repetitive but it works. I'm going to admit that I only do this workout once or twice a month because I tend to reach more for my circuit training DVDs. However, when my stress level peaks, I do this workout. I feel relaxed and energized when I'm done with it. Out of my 40+ exercise DVDs, I only have 3 yoga/pilates kind [Denise Austin's Power Yoga Plus, Yoga Booty Ballet and this one]. I used this the most 'coz my core could really feel it afterwards ..and at 43 years old, I'd like to maintain a waistline and prevent my mid-section from growing 'outward/forward'. Don't get me wrong, this DVD is a total body toning routine so in 40 minutes, you worked out everything...To add variety in your collection, I recommend buying this one....
Pilates Yoga Blend is Great April 30, 2008 C. P. Bullock (Fayetteville, NC) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This DVD is great!!! You do simple exercises that really does work your core. You feel it immediately and you begin to see results in 2 to 4 weeks. Well I did anyway. I did it 6 days a week for 3 weeks and I was impressed.
My Treadmill Misses Me! April 29, 2008 C. Arnold (Georgia,USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought the Crunch Fat Burning Pilates in the $5.00 bin of a store that was going out of business. I took it home, did the workout, and couldn't move for a day! But I liked it so much and I felt so good that I bought the Pilates Yoga Blend and the Pick Your Spot Pilates on DVD. I enjoy switching these 3 up. I get so into Pilates that I have a hard time making myself get on the treadmill! I have really noticed a difference in my flexibility and muscle tone. I like Ellen Barrett--she's perky and encouraging, not obnoxiously cheerful like many instructors. The reason I like this DVD so much because I love yoga poses, but the whole meditation and clearing your mind thing is just not my cup of tea--it makes me feel silly. So if you like yoga but aren't into the chanting, etc., then you'll really love this workout. And all of the Crunch Pilates workouts.
