Requires More CommitmentJanuary 28, 2004 MulhollandMan(Los Angeles, Ca) 12 out of 15 found this review helpful
It was only because I saw such great results from the "8 Minute Abs" video that I could really come through with the level of commitment I needed to make this tape work. I mean, for some reason this took alot longer for me to get with the program. It's not so simple as the "New Sex Now" or "Goddess Worship" videos, where you just watch it once and you pretty much get it. With this program you gotta watch the tape every single time, and follow along with the guy doing the stuff. And while it is fun to do that with the Goddess Worship video too, it's a different kinda viewing experience... though still highly enriching. Anyway, the point is that you gotta put these techniques into action, every single day, and practice this stuff so it pays off -- since there's no sense just watching tapes like these just once and continuing to feel fat.

I think the "buns" part of this video is great--I felt and saw results almost immediately. But I was disappointed with the "legs/thighs" portion. I have problems with my knees so was unable to do some of the lunges and squats. Despite doing the rest of the tape, I didn't see much positive result in my legs or thighs.
8 minute buns and thighsMay 26, 2003 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
I use this in addition to 8 minute abs and would definitely recommend it. The 8 minutes go by fast and you can feel your heart rate rise. There is not alot of jumping around which you find in other workouts. The workout is sequenced so that you target the buns and thighs. The only part I found hard was the forward and reverse lunges, so I definitely recommend either using a chair for balance or doing a modified move. I felt toning within a week of using this routine.

As a 41 year old mom of two I don't have a lot of time for exercise and I figured I at least could give myself 8 minutes a day. On top of that my metabolism has taken a nasty turn (yet again) and these two areas are of great concern. I've been doing the exercises for a four days now. The tape is fast paced and tough. I really appreciate the clock as it motivates me to keep going when I feel I can no longer. I do both buns and thighs in 16 minutes and I feel I've really done something. I can't wait to see the results and I'm confident I will.

This video is old but it is a great workout. I love Jaime Brenkus' work and highly recommend his workout videos to anyone looking for a workout without benefit of a gym.
