So So

by Trinh from on 2010-03-06
It helped a bit, but the cinched part under the bust starts to irritate after awhile. It would make it kinda sore, so it was trading one soreness for another.

Ok but not great.

by GreatDealFinder from San Diego, CA on 2010-02-11
I found the BellyBra to be ok but not great. It really didn't help relieve any back pain and the elastic band at the botton hits me in the wrong place. It feels like it adds pressure to the bladder instead of releaving any. Also, the straps are very wide making it harder to conseal under clothing.

Much better than other choices!!

by Becky from Colorado on 2009-12-08
I tried on a bunch of other choices before choosing this, sight unseen. It's much more comfortable than the plain elastic bands that go under your belly. This takes a lot of pressure off of your back when you exercise. I definitely recommend it! It does come up pretty high, so with lower necklines, you can see it.

good support!

by KVK from Boston, MA on 2009-11-05
This belly bra gives great support for the tummy and is very comfortable. However, if you have wide scoop neck or v neck tops, beware because the neckline is narrow, and the belly bra will show inside your top's neckline. Good product for wintertime esp when you are wearing turtlenecks etc.

so-so product, not the best out there

by J. Lewis from Colorado, USA on 2009-01-22
Tried this on right away after recieving, was so excited. I'm a very active mom-to-be and was looking for extra support expecially during workouts. At 29 weeks and having gained 25 lbs already, I found that the small was a little too small, but the medium too big- the small was hard to get on and off because it was tight at the top especially, but once on was generally comfortable. Product irritated the underarms at the seams when active. Belly portion fit well and was confortable, but the band at the bottom did irritate my skin a bit, and felt "tight" because it was somehwat narrow elastic (2"). Very see-through garmet. Nowhere near sufficient as a sportsbra, even for small chest size. Does provide significant warmth as a base layer, so with addition of sportsbra and t-shirt, got overheated easily.

Overall, plan to return, as there seem to be better products out there that are wider at the bottom, and not integrated as a shirt/bra as well.

the pit workout will kick your butt

by t19buckeye from on 2010-08-28
Great workout,John Hackelman has you sweating from the beginning, the first workout is upper body and the second workout is lower body and the third workout combines both for a full-body workout. The workouts are very intense but also very easy to follow along. Hackelman has trouble counting when doing push-ups but he does admit his mistakes, i count for myself so I know how many I have done. Otherwise a great quality workout dvd, that you do not need any equipment for besides a television and it only costs less than 20 dollars.

Better than P90X!

by KS from on 2010-06-10
I completed 90 days of P90X and had great results but wanted more of a challenge and even more results. The Pit workout does it and is more fun for me because I am interested in MMA. I am noticing a higher level of strength and fitness, and getting a little more cut. P90X feels like aerobics compared to this! I still mix in the weights DVDs from P90X, but the PIT pushes you harder. And you are still using just your body and don't really need equipment. John Hackleman is a cool dude and is helpful and instructive with no BS.

My only criticism is that you should do some jump rope or jacks while John talks before each set cause he stretches the water break about a minute too long sometimes.

If you get the boxset, you will have a more complete picture of what John teaches in regards to fitness.

Pretty Good

by T. Hendricks from Oceanside, CA United States on 2010-04-30
This DVD was pretty good. It wasn't quite as diverse as I would have liked, but it was worth the money. This is not a program that can be your sole source of exercise. It consists PRIMARILY of shadow boxing and pushups. Unfortunately, there are no back exercises. Also, if you don't have any boxing or MMA background, this DVD isn't for you. If you don't know how to shadow box or hit a heavy bag, you'll probably be lost and frustrated. If you want to add a little something extra for your workout, give it a try.

Great Value

by Y. Zohar from Israel on 2010-04-05
In the field of physical fitness and sports we often see 50 minute DVDs costing $40. This is a 2 DVD set, no fluff, great workouts and costs half of that.
Another good feature is that you need zero equipment, although a heavy bag and a jump rope will enhance the workout. Still, you can do these sessions anywhere and you certainly don't need a gym.

I am a fitness guy not an MMA fighter and I have the feeling that this is the targeted market for the DVD. Although there is a brief appearance by Chuck Liddell at the beginning, he doesn't actually contribute anything to the DVD besides introducing John. The guys and gals in the class certainly do not appear to be MMA fighters but rather average folks keeping in shape. Great shape. And John does the workouts with his students.

The DVD shows very intensive upper body, lower body and full body sessions. I got some great ideas from this product.

My only semi-critical comment is that there was noticeable technique deterioration as the sets progressed. Parallel squats became quarter squats, pushups began to look contorted, etc. There are different schools of thought in the world of fitness and conditioning. One school believes that an exercise is terminated once good technique cannot be maintained. John seems to subscribe to the philosophy that there is conditioning value in doing partial, technically imperfect reps.

To sum up: great DVD and great value.

Intense Workout...Recomend it to anyone.

by Diego Torres from Gilbert, AZ on 2010-03-04
This has to be one of the most intense workouts Ive ever done. It teaches you how to fight while also giving you a Great workout. Great for anybody who want's to get in shape. For the price it's one of the best workout DVD's you can find. And plus you don't even need anything else besides your body to workout with.

"great video"

by L. Kennedy from New Hampshire on 2009-05-04
I own approximately 150 workout tapes... this one costing me 1$ is probably a favorite time crunch video.
It is fast paced alternating between upper body and abs.... each about 1 minute. I would consider it a cardio tape as well. It just doesn't stop..... Great cueing and good pointers throughout. The only negative comment might be the music and exercises do not go together, and the voice of Michelle is a bit high pitched.... who cares? It's 30 minutes of what each of us need per day to keep the ever increasing stress level down. Enjoy!

Solid

by JDN1977 from United States on 2009-04-21
I completely agree with the other reviewer. This is a good video, especially for the price it seems to be going for. I got my copy for a dollar at the Dollar Tree. This is a solid workout, which you can make as challenging as you want, based on the weight you use. Each exercise is done for about 1 minute, which is nice, because I feel like I can do just about anything for 1 minute. The production quality isn't very good, but the workout makes up for that. I will say that of the three 30 Minute Express videos, this is my least favorite. However, it's a great video overall.

Very Good

by dusty from Ohio on 2008-12-29
Wow, this workout is good (I didn't expect to like it as much as I did). In just 30 minutes it works your upper body and abs really well. Each exercise is done for 1 minute which translates into about 30 to 35 reps for most. It reminded me a little of Kelly Coffey-Meyer's 30 Minutes to Fitness, because Michelle also alternates upper body and abs. Almost all of the exercises can be done either with dumbbells or a resistance band. Half of the exercisers do it with weights and the other half with the band, some standing, others sitting on a step. This provides lots of options to modify. I recommend this video, it gets the job done, the time goes by fast and the instructor is friendly and pleasant.

Works great

by Phil from Little Rock, AR on 2010-08-22
Just like others have said it is comfortable. I wore it for nine days in China. Throw away the plastic liner and use your own zip top bag for passport and money. I also had to cut the excess strap. Washes very easily. I recommend it.

Not found in stores

by Nidia I. Garcia-hinojosa from on 2010-08-14
My niece was traveling to Europe and asked me if I had a money belt. Apparently, she couldn't find one at any of the stores recommended. I called Bed, Bath, and Beyond, but they did not have any in stock, only online. I did a search and found several belts. I liked the Rick Steves Money Belt because it was affordable and silky. I ordered it to be shipped within two days and received it in time before my niece left to Europe. When she returned, I asked her how the money belt worked and she was very pleased with the ease of unzipping it. This was a good product.

Didn't survive an eight day trip to Europe

by Tracy Rinella from California on 2010-08-11
I purchased this item and used it just last week for my trip to Europe. It lasted only three days before the zippers failed. We used Rick Steves' books and audio guides and loved those but this money belt was not built to last. I found that as long as you don't wear baggy pants or shorts, you can get away with keeping your valuables in your front pockets without any problems. If you think you still need a money belt you should try something a little more durable (and probably more expensive).

It's better than most...

by Liam from on 2010-08-09
but thought it would be more comfortable. If going somewhere where pick-pocketing is an issue or you want to have your passport and other valuables safe, it's a good bet.

okay. wish it had not divided pockets.

by S. Farhangi from Ca, USA on 2010-08-08

Review of Solid Rank Karate Martial Arts and TaeKwonDo Belts

by Stephen Dolan from Dublin, Ireland. on 2009-05-18
I have purchased two sets of these belts over the last month. The first order received was of a high quality belt, well stitched and finished. The belt was firm and slighty stiff as it should be. A good quality belt all round.

I then ordered a second set of the same belts but at a larger size. These belts where not of the same quality, in particular the finishing of the belt ends was poor. The belts seemed to have come from a longer strip and had been cut to size and heat sealed. The weight and firmness of the belts was also less then the first order. While adequate these belts where disappointing when compared to the first shipment.

Nice solid color

by Socrates from FL, USA on 2009-01-21
This belt looks very nice and shiny, but is a little stiff in the beginning.

A Solid Value

by Stuart M. Teramoto from Seattle, WA on 2009-01-11
I have purchased several of these and found them to be very durable. There are eight rows of stitching running the length of the belt and the ends are double stitched. I found the stitching near the ends of all the belts to be a little sloppy, but you really have to look close to see this. They are a little stiff, but that gives me a feeling that they would last over the long haul. After hundreds of times of being tied and untied, it is not easy to tell where the wear spot is from the knot. As far as fading, my belts are still as brightly colored as the day I purchased them, but I don't wash them either. I only put my belt on right before practice and then put it back in my bag after practice.

You'll advance to the next belt before you wear one of these out. A good durable belt and a good value at around $5.00.

This lightweight and comfortable armband was designed for the iPhone 3G and 3GS but also works really well for iPhone 4, Blackberrys and many other smartphones some of which are listed below. It really is the ultimate sports armband providing unmatched comfort, convenience and protection while you run, workout or listen on the go.

The low profile, neoprene armband is stable and secure so it will not bounce around. It maximizes comfort with a design that helps keep the back of the case laying flat against your arm so it is not lumpy. Your arm actually pushes the device into the case which is way more comfortable then the case pushing the device into your arm.

To provide as much protection as possible during your workout rigors, the top entrance is covered while openings in the bottom provide vital access points. Other features for your convenience include: a versatile design that holds your device right side up, or upside down to read the screen easier when viewed on the arm; a clear, protective window cover with full navigational control; and a flap to securely store and manage the earphone cord.

The armband is washable, includes a reflective logo and adjusts from 9" to 17". For larger arm sizes, an Armband Extender is available. See model EX3 which increases the maximum arm size by about 6.5 inches.

Some other devices that fit: Blackberry Bold, Curve, Storm & Tour; HTC Hero & Magic; iPhone 4, 2G and 1G: Palm Pre; T-Mobile Dash & myTouch 3G.

Does NOT fit HTC EVO 4G, HTC Desire or Droid X. Please see model AB83 for a larger fitting armband.

Love it - durable

by Alice Mallett from WASILLA, AK, US on 2010-09-03
I have tried the pink and black ones and they were too big and would fall down my arm. They were hard to put iPhone in them and would tear when inserting iPhone, but this one is fabulous. Easy to use, small enough for my arm and very comfortable. Stays in place while I'm running and protects it while it's raining. Love it!

does not fit iphone 4

by Katie from on 2010-08-31
too small for iphone 4, you constantly have to readjust the phone so it does not fall out.

Running

by John Miller from Minnetonka, Minnesota United States on 2010-08-31
Quality of the product is great, while fitting comfortably on the arm; however, when temperatures were warm with humidity in the air, had caused the plastic face on the band to be ineffective with my phone. The screen was full of moisture to the point I could not use the buttons, and nor was my phone working properly until I had reset the battery.

Plus it was lightly sprinkling out, but nothing that I haven't ran in before with my phone in a different holder that was more exposed to rain.

Nice product all in all!

Get what you pay for.

by ANN from on 2010-09-01
This arm band was alot cheaper than the Belkin but really not worth it. It was nice and comfortable except the velcro keeps ripping off. I had to hot glue it back many times but it came off again and again. So I stopped taking my ipod out of the sleeve, then the velcro on the strap itself ripped off. I got fed up and threw it away.

Completely Useless

by BaySlammer from on 2010-08-22
I never thought I'd feel jobbed about something that cost $2. But I do. The band is constructed of 2 pieces held together by spit and Hope. It peeled apart in less than a week, so I had to sew the top together. I'd return it, but the postage is more than it's worth.

Gets the job done

by ReCTeD from on 2010-08-19
It does its job ok. It could use something else to secure the earbud cables, but that's aboout it. Pretty cheap construction, but I'm okay with that, it's only $6.

Don't buy this

by Mike O'leary from Palm City, FL USA on 2010-08-14
Don't buy this case. I needed to replace an armband case I had purchased from Apple and worn out. I use the armband when I workout. This case is not waterproof (ok nothing is but this isn't close). The design has large openings. In contrast the case I purchased from Apple years ago was relatively enclosed and waterproof. I would not feel comfortable running in a light rain shower with this armband case from Griffin. In contrast I ran (ok jogged) in the rain with the Apple case without worry. To top it all off, the construction of this case by Griffin is poor. The stitching was uneven and not well done.

If you don't need to worry about using the armband outside it is probably worth the very low price. If you plan to use it outdoors in all weather don't buy it. I will be looking for something better.

Decent product

by eurambaba from on 2010-07-06
Decent product, somewhat crappily made. At least does the job you need it to do, which is more than I can say for a lot of armbands out there. For $5 its acceptable.

Product Does the Job

by J. Bender from on 2010-08-01
This product is very comfortable to wear, and is good if you need to have an armband that offers protection without feeling like your wearing combat gear. However, along those lines the clear plastic portion of the armband does seem kinda cheap and I am not sure how this product will hold up for the long haul...also, the clear plastic does make it difficult sometimes to scroll through music and change volume (not enough to complain about, but just enough to make mention of). Overall, I am happy with this product.

Tune belt for Palm Pre

by William John Oconnell from Ferndale, MI United States on 2010-07-16
This product works well as far a being able to hold the Pre. It's not the easiest to get in and out of the sleeve, but it works and holds it securely.

Works with Palm Pre

by L. McLean from Lebanon, IL on 2010-05-23
I ordered this for use with my Palm Pre based on the comments of others. It works extremely well, fits the Palm Pre perfectly. The cord holder is a good idea and works great. To top it off, it's very comfortable to wear.

Great For Running.

by Joel from New York, USA on 2010-04-25
I like the Tune Belt because once you put your Ipod in, It's in, and you still can control everything. I'm happy with it.

Nice armband

by James Stanton from GA on 2010-04-14
Needed an armband for my Ipod Video so I can listen while I ride my mountain bike. This works nice. Only thing that would improve it is some velcro. Kinda hard to tighten it when it is around your arm. Some velcro there would be a great improvement. It holds nice and I can use the Ipod while it is still in this case. Just need to take it out to charge.

• These workout towels measure approximately 12" X 35", their long narrow shape make them perfect for draping around your neck to keep a towel handy for wiping off sweat during a workout
• These towels are made from 100% Rayon from Bamboo. Bamboo towels are amazingly soft, even after repeated washings, they remain softer than the finest cotton towels.
• Supersoft - Bamboo towels are amazingly soft, even after repeated washings, they remain softer than the finest cotton towels. According to an October 2006 Consumer Reports article, bamboo towels are, "25 percent softer after laundering, on average, than their all-cotton counterparts".
• Highly water absorbent, and fast drying - rayon from bamboo textiles are highly absorbent, and have a strong wicking action for fast drying. Bamboo derived towels absorb as much as three times the water as a similar weight cotton towel, and dry twice as fast.
• Important Care Instructions: To get the most out of your bamboo towels, it is important to follow these care guidelines.Machine wash cold on gentle cycle. Tumble dry low. Do NOT use bleach or fabric softener. Occasionally, you might notice a few loose threads or enlarged loops. Simply trim these to the same level as the rest of the loops with sharp scissors to prevent your towel from being damaged. This is a normal occurrence that is inherent to the bamboo derived rayon fibers.

Great product

by Smartbuyer from Timonium, MD on 2010-01-22
This towel is worth the price: totally lives up to its claim. It's highly absorbant, yet it is soft and washes well. Plus it's a bit larger than the normal hand towel size that comes with most retail towel sets, so this MysticMaid is very utilitarian. It works well in a guest bath or as a kitchen hand towel. Wish Amazon offered it in other colors.

Description

Qigong: 18 Buddha Hands promises viewers an introduction to qigong (pronounced "chee-gung"), the relaxing Chinese exercises meant to tone the body and the mind. Instructor Larry Johnson leads the audience through the simple stances and repeated movements of the 18 Buddha Hands form effectively, but production values can be a little distracting--the narration occasionally shifts in volume, and a long spoken introduction to the history of qigong is marred by dodgy sound and irrelevant natural vistas. Those new to qigong and similar martial-arts disciplines would have gotten more out of the video had it offered more detailed close-ups, shots from behind the instructor as well as in front, and some mention of exactly how each of the exercises should feel. Nevertheless, by simply doing as the instructor does and keeping in mind the breathing instruction from the narrator, you get the general idea pretty quickly. The movements--mostly a collection of stretches and stances--are disarmingly simple, so there's little chance of getting lost. And each exercise is repeated to the right and the left, so there's no need to fear getting it backwards by mirroring the instructor, a natural risk when watching the moves head on rather than from the back. The gorgeous outdoor setting also makes repeat viewings of the workout a pleasure for any fan of fitness and relaxation. --Grant Balfour

Best workout

by Beth from Denver, CO on 2010-03-15
I love this DVD. Really is the "perfect workout." Easy to follow, works the whole body. Upbeat, fun. I do this DVD twice a week. I also do Ellen Barrett's "Crunch - Super SlimDown: Pilates Yoga Blend" once a week and her other workouts "Slim Sculpt" and "Fat Burning Fusion." I think "Crunch - Burn & Firm Pilates" is the most well-rounded of all the DVDs, it provides a great ab workout section (which Slim Sculpt and Fat Burning Fusion don't have). All of Ellen Barrett's DVDs are great, easy to follow. She's a positive, upbeat instructor who gives just the right amount of encouragement and guidance.

Ellen Barret is great!

by H. Foster from on 2010-01-25
I have been doing this dvd for 3 weeks. I do the 20 minute Turbo Jam workout, then I follow it up with this. It's about 45 minutes. You don't feel as if you are working terribly hard, but after about the 4th time doing the worout, I not only feel but I can see a difference! I have a problem with "back fat". Between the 2 workouts, this one especially, my posture & back fat problem have gotten so much better! My 5 year old said to me this morning "Wow, Mommy, you are getting so skinny!".

Great standing pilates workout

by T. Casey from on 2009-12-30
Great workout for the whole body, particularly the legs. I love doing those plies. I complement this workout with Slim Sculpt, which really works the arms. I had thought that maybe I was not getting enough cardio by doing this workout, but not so - I also do the workouts by Jillian Michaels and have no problem getting through them; although her plank work is much tougher than Ellen's.

Great DVD! Still using 5 years later!

by R. Moore from Charleston, WV on 2009-11-16
I bought this DVD as the first of many Crunch Fitness DVD's that I would buy in the future. Ellen is great. She really works every muscle on your body. I was never so out of breath that I couldn't talk. The DVD is about 48 minutes and was so easy to get through. I was never bored or ready to turn it off and lay on the couch. I have many other Crunch DVD's and they are all instructed clearly. Sometimes, I can't follow other DVD's because the instructors don't give clear instructions in enough time to follow them correctly. Crunch videos give you a cue to change your movements in plenty of time allowing you to stay on pace.
I recommend this DVD to anyone wanting to get in shape from a recent injury or postpartum.

Excellent work out

by babyboomer from TEXAS on 2009-09-24
Ellen does a great job in her instruction, even if your viewing her video for the first time you can keep up with her. Your heart starts pumping in no time. I found this video to be a good workout for the legs & arms, not to mention posture. I would recommend this & her other workout "Slim Sculpt".

Description

Veteran fitness expert Denise Austin's Personal Training System is one of several exercise programs designed to take advantage of a valuable feature of the DVD format: namely, the ability for viewers to customize their own workouts by picking and choosing from various elements presented in Austin's prescribed routines. These include sections devoted to cardio (available at low and high intensity levels, both about 20 minutes long), upper and lower body exercises (offered at low, medium, and high intensity, each about ten minutes long), and abdominal and stretching segments (the same for all levels, these also last about ten minutes). Meanwhile, the "custom workout" option enables users to combine any or all of these elements according to taste and fitness level. There's nothing especially innovative here--indeed, the cardio sections are pretty much old school, Jane Fonda Workout-style aerobics, while the upper and lower body sections include light weights, bends, lunges, push-ups and other tried-and-true elements--but those looking for a thorough, sweat-inducing regimen will certainly find it here. Austin's relentlessly effervescent style will no doubt prove inspiring to some and cloying to others. On the other hand, the entire program can be done without her audio instructions, and those who simply don't want to work out at all can occupy themselves with an accompanying booklet filled with diet pointers and recipes. --Sam Graham

I went from unfit to fit with this DVD! I love Denise Austin & I love the fact that she has had a baby so she knows first hand how hard it is to get back in shape. She kicked my butt at first, but now im breezing through it! I work up an amazing sweat each time. She's great at instructing and I love her personality, she's a sweetie Her body is awesome..nice, fit and still feminine. I recommend this!

Fantastic workout to develop!!

by H. Hatton from Kingsland, GA on 2010-02-26
I have had this DVD for over a year and am still loving it! It allows you to move at your own pace by adding weights or moving up the ladder of intensity. I love how you can pick your workout from the menu so if you only have time for arms and legs that's all you do! I'm also 20 weeks pregnant and was able to move back down to the low intensity aerobic to help maintain muscle tone but still get my heartrate up. I highly recommend this for beginners and those that exercise regulary!

Very motivational

by S. Reeves from on 2010-02-10
Denise is very good at encouraging a person no matter what your level of ability is.

Bad cues

by Pepe La Pue from FL on 2010-01-17
I love Denise Austin as a person, and I have become very toned doing her workouts. I use this workout in my weekly rotation, but two things about Denise's DVD's drive me crazy.

First, there is no rhyme or reason to the instructions she gives vs. what is actually happening. She'll often say "Okay, two more!" and she'll do one. Or she'll say "This is the last one" and then do 4 more. I know what reps and sets are - so I'm not confused. She converses so much that I think she can't keep up with where she is in the set. This is why you'll see her backup crew being off count. Also, she'll do a move 16 times and then the next time it's four. She needs to be more consistent in her count.

The major thing that bugs me, particularly in this video (and I only have done the high intensity section), is the camera shots. If Denise is instructing me and changes to a new move - the camera should be on her, not on a backup person. There is one move in the aerobic section where everytime she announces a move, the camera goes off of her to a shot of her backup person, and it's not even a full body shot. There is no excuse for such horrible editing.

You can get in GREAT shape with DA workouts, even if they don't seem all that taxing. Where Denise excels is on the strength-training and floor work. She is much clearer about how to do the moves and what the move is doing for you. If she could become more consistent and quality oriented in her aerobic sections, the workouts would be even better. Oh, and one more thing - she throws in moves just to jazz up a certain set ("okay, turn here!"). This turn adds no benefit to the workout, it just confuses the move. That's not necessary. And that's not so much in this workout but in others of hers that I have.

I love Denise, but she needs to hire a new cameraperson, editor, and put some thought into her routines.

This is great for lifting weights at home this summer...

by Deborah Wittmann from HOBE SOUND, FL, US on 2010-07-20
If you are a beginner and want to shape up this summer you will like this one! It is easy to understand and lift weights to. The instructor is very easy to listen to and work out with. I like that she does 12 repetitions and then stretches and does another set of 12 for a total of 24. It is important for women to have upper body strength.
I checked this out from my local library first, then I wanted it for my own collection. I am glad I found it on Amazon, brand new.

Shapping Up With Weights For Dummies

by Sandra Biermacher from on 2010-03-19
This is a very good dvd for the beginner. It gives a step by step look at how the exercises should by done. Stresses the right way to do them and which muscles are involved in the exercise. It gives a good stretch after each exercise that feels real good. Definitely a good buy.

Good DVD for absolute beginners

by Wendy Smith from Camp Hill, PA on 2010-03-07
This is the first exercise DVD I've bought and I thought it was appropriate for me. Tracy York, the instructor, has a very pleasant manner and explains the purpose of each exercise and clearly explains and demonstrates each move. I agree with other commentors that these lengthy explanations become unnecessary after several viewings, but are always helpful to return to occasionally to brush up on correct form. The one major failing of the DVD is that there isn't a separate track of the same exercises straight through without all the explanation. That would have made the DVD useful for a much longer time. That said, it's a good place to start and since it's inexpensive, worth the short time that you'll use it and move on to more advanced DVDs.

Excellent HR Monitor Watch

by JR from Baltimore, MD on 2010-07-13
I am really pleased with this HR monitor watch. Being a woman, I wanted something sturdy yet not so big it dominated my arm. This fits the bill - very adjustable size wize (both the watch and the chest strap). I am average height, but carry most of my weight in my stomach. The chest strap fits very comfortably to me, and the new feature of being able to simply wet the cloth contacts is great (I was used to the old school hard plastic contacts).

According to the product information, you can actually wash the chest strap in the washer - haven't tried it yet.

Fairly easy to use once you get used to which button controls which feature. Advice - when you are setting the watch up for the first time, have the manual in front of you. I accidentally deleted my settings the first few times.

Using the watch while jogging and walking is very easy - the screen is much easier to read than other products I have tried. I was most interested in tracking heart rate, calories burned, and some basics of how I was working out in the fat burning and fitness zones. This watch does a great job with that - afetr you complete a workout it produces a simple summary of total cals burned, how many minutes you spent in far burn vs fitness, and your average heart rate.

I am sure hard core runners want something more than tracks mileage, but I tried a watch like that and found it too cumbersome. Since I am merely using this for fitness, it works perfectly.

No Countdown Timer?

by Lockstep from on 2010-07-22
What kind of "Fitness" watch doesn't have a countdown timer.

I received this watch as a gift, and am very disappointed. The fact that you can't set a timer for 1 minute and have it countdown for an alarm to go off at 0 makes this watch pretty useless for any sort of interval training.

My $30 Timex Ironman does this, other than the look, I find little reason to wear the Suunto.

Waste of money.

Good enough

by Fabricio from on 2010-07-01
The product is good. It is not the best Heart Monitor ever, but it does the job for some casual runners.
And it has a better design than the competitors.

Built not to last

by David from on 2010-06-27
I really wanted this HRM watch from Suunto to work, but after only 1 lite workout, the face was already marred. I may have bumped up against some equipment, but nothing that should have left a marked. I have two other Suunto watches, dive computers, and they are indestructible. These watches have been hit up against rocks and metal with some slight scratches to show for it. Bottomline, while the functionality is there, this watch is isn't worth the money due to the poor quality of materials used.

Nice case but flimsy belt clip

by jmo from on 2010-07-19
As can be gotten from the title, the case itself is great. The issue with this product is that the belt clip with which it is connected to your pants or your arm strap is made so that the whole thing feels floppy. I would never trust the belt clip for running or even hiking.

Original and dynamite

by Lucy the Bargain Hunter from on 2005-02-06
I now own a lot of resistance training books of various sorts - using dumb-bells, or the thera-band. This book is unique, the only one I found using large rubber bands (I didn't even know such things existed). I had hesitated to buy this book because of the reviewers who said the rubber bands were harsh in thier hands. When I got the book and tried the exercises I found there was absolutely no discomfort from using the bands without gloves, that was a relief. In addition, I LOVE the exercises, they somehow get at muscles in a different way than other methods. The exercises are well explained and the photographs make it easy to see exactly how to do each one. This book is among my favorites. I did not want to use the order form for new bands at the back of the book because I was afraid prices might have gone up or something since the book was published, so I did a web search on SPRI Rubber Band and found a site called LeighCrews.com, or DynaLife (it's connected somehow) where you can buy rubber bands of different widths for more or less resistance. (Hint: if you buy 20 instead of 1, the price per unit goes down drastically.) Overall, this is a great book and a great method for getting in shape and staying in shape.

the best exercise book I've seen

by from on 2004-01-29
Simple, easy to follow, this book outlines some great at-home workouts. I was especially impressed with the "chair" exercises, important for me at this moment since I have a broken foot.I not only would recommend it to all, I will buy many copies and give them as gifts to friends I know need exercise that is easy and fun to do.

Nice package; Nice workout; But Rough Bands

by Waterloo from on 2002-06-05
I got this book to extend my rubber resistance training. It's the only book on the topic I found at Amazon at the time. I was interested in the book but when it came and I saw the 2 small blue rubber bands attached, I was happy that it was an inclusive package. You didn't have to go out to buy the exercise equipment now that you had the book. I tried out much of the exercises and they do feel good. However, the rubber band feels harsh in my hand after a while and I have to do the exercises with my exercise gloves so I don't burn or chafe...

sensible, useful book for beginners

by CindyH from on 2000-02-10
Great book. The illustrations are clear and easy to see, and they make sense for a beginner. It stresses the importance of stretching, warmup, and aerobics, but its focus is on strength. I recommend thin gloves for using the rubber bands.

Simple, to the point, and it works!

by Adam D. from CA on 2010-04-18
I already owned the free weight deck and bought these with a kit for when I'm out of town. The decks are very simple and, most importantly, they work! Like Eduardo says, you don't need complicated workouts. You just need a workout that you will do and that woks. And those decks give you just that. No complicated workouts, no bogging you down with theory like books do. Just simple and good workouts. I love it and recommend 100%!

Basic

by D. Byrne from Texas on 2009-03-25
Save your money. This product is too basic for any kind of advanced (or even intermediate) training. Half the deck is calisthenics, not bands. Even the advanced portion of the deck does not include reverse wood choppers, reverse grip tricep pushdown, etc. The real deal (although pricey) is at ihpfit.com.

Easy to use, and I got great results!!!

by Brooks from Winnetka, US, Canada on 2008-04-04
I ordered the resistance band deck a while back and I'm definitely happy with the results. I do a lot of travel, and Eduardo's regiment (along with the bands themselves) has allowed me to work out on the road without a gym. All you really need is a door! I love that the cards are simple to follow and ringed, so I don't lose them (as I tend to do).

I researched the exercises in the deck and found that Eduardo really knows his stuff. It works all of your major muscle groups (arms and legs).

Seriously, I can't believe how much of a burn I feel after only a couple minutes (and I'm only on two bands at a time!).

Buy it. You will not regret it.

BMP is Awesome. The bands are very good. Warranty is the best

by David Hornback from on 2010-08-31
I ordered the bands in May but didn't start P90X until 2 weeks ago. One of the resistance bands broke after a few uses (the grommet came out of the webbing material). I called BMP's customer service number. A nice guy answered (no answering machine) and apologized. He said they have a life time warranty and said he would immediately ship the broken band to me. Now THAT is good customer service. I would highly recommend buying these bands and any other product from BMP.

Wholly unsuitable for P90X training

by B. Albright from on 2010-08-26
I purchased my set of bands from Amazon for the purpose of P90X training, particularly as a travel-friendly way to do resistance training. I am very dissatisfied with the product and, had the product not broken while I was on foreign travel (thereby causing me to miss the refund window), I would have sought a refund.

I cannot recommend this product for anyone doing a training program such as P90X with substantial resistance training because the bands aren't designed for the stresses one would place on them. Perhaps they may be suitable for light physical therapy, since only the lightest of the bands can be realistically used, but for the price, I recommend splurging on fewer bands of higher quality instead.

The most serious design flaw is the place where the elastic attaches to the handles. The handles are nylon canvas and the bands fasten by threading through metal eyelets punched through the canvas. The trouble is that it's very easy with even moderate stress to tear the eyelets from the canvas, thereby detaching the band from the handle and rendering the product useless. This happened to me for the two strongest bands (the red and black) within a few days of one another, both only after around three weeks of use. In neither case had I placed the bands under much stress at all, so I conclude that this is a fundamental defect in their design.

Another, minor problem I encountered is that the bag shipped for holding the bands tore along one of the seams after a week or so of light use. While it would still hold the bands (more or less), it was an annoyance.

Nice

by BennieB from YPSILANTI, MI, US on 2010-08-23
I've used these quite a bit. They rub on my wrists a little which is why it doesn't get 5 stars. However, it is barely even noticeable and I would buy this set again in a heartbeat.

Great bands for P90X

by Roy from on 2010-08-20
I started P90X four weeks ago- absolutely great work-out. I'm a big guy- 6'1" and 220 so pull-ups are out of the question to start with. So I decided to buy some bands. There are a lot to choose from so I read all the reviews. These bands caught my eye for the good reviews from other customers and especially positive comments about the company that makes them.

I paid the expedited shipping and ordered these for my work-outs. I received a notification from Amazon that they would be delivered in nine business days. I was furious so I fired off a scathing email to the manufacturer. The bands actually arrived the very next day but I also received a great email from BMP making sure I received them and was happy and if not- what could they do to help. Excellent customer service as I had simply jumped the gun with my rude note to them!

As for the bands- couldn't be happier. I am moving up fast in resistance so I have learned to take two bands for increased difficulty. The handles are very easy to grasp so two bands are great to hold on to and create a lot of resistance combinations (for the pull-ups). I still just loop part of the band for the curls and other movements and stand on the loop to increase the workout load.

I don't normally rate products but I had to put in my two cents for this item. Great customer service and a great product- order these and you will be happy!

Great Item

by nickster from on 2010-08-16
Great quality product. I am 6'2 235 pounds and use these bands three or more times a week when I am out of town making sales calls. I am able to get a great workout and these bands are showing no signs of wear. I don't know what those others were using/misusing the bands that had problems....you see "them" in the gym all the time. Great quality resistance bands compared to the ones I got at the local superstore that broke in a week. I am going to get more to give as christmas presents.

Joyce Vedral takes the traditional pyramid principle of weightlifting and spices it up by mixing in quartets of exercises. You'll do a quartet of exercises for four different body parts, pyramid it by using lightest, heavier, then heaviest weights, and then move on to another quartet. There are separate workouts for upper and lower body. There is also a bonus mini-workout for troublesome body parts (triceps and thighs). You'll need three sets of dumbbells and a weight bench or step for the lying-down exercises.

Great Cardio Workout

by P. Perez from Puerto Rico on 2010-07-02
This is a great workout if you are only searching for all cardio. It's hard now a days to find an all cardio workout since everyone is now applying weights to cardio workouts. This is good and challenging but easy to follow for beginners, it has modifications for each level. It is broken up into 10 min kickboxing segments beginning with upper body, then 10 min lower body, and finally 10 min core. It also has a 10 min bonus workout at the end, this one is a bit more challenging for a beginner but also has modifications. You can do 10 min or all 4 segemnts to get a 40min cardio session.

A workout for anyone

by Diane S from Rochester NY on 2010-03-24
This is the first time I purchased a workout DVD. I have some arthritis in my knees and have lower back issues so traditional situps and bike riding don't work for me. I purchased this DVD with Quick Fix Hip Hop Abs and I prefer this one. I don't have issues with my knees or back when I do these workouts and I love the chance to do just one of the 3 workouts if I'm pressed for time. I recommend this to anyone with knee or back issues and quite honestly to anyone else also. I found it a bit tough to keep up with in the beginning but it didn't take long to follow along, I am amazed I actually look forward to the workouts.

Like instructor, good for beginners

by Feles31 from Honolulu, HI United States on 2010-02-17
I am probably an intermediate level of fitness. Really like this instructor. This video is good, but I didn't really break much of a sweat. Her other Strike Zone kickboxing DVD is a much better workout for me.

They should call it Kick your butt routine!

by Gnomalina from SoCal, USA on 2009-12-05
I tend to get bored quickly by aerobic/cardio routines, and I have to switch videos often during my workout. This video is great for that, it has three seperate workouts: 10 min for upper body (I love this one) 10 min for lower body and then a bring it together workout. They all really make you sweat fast, and get you really pumped up. The only thing I wish this video had was a section on kickboxing form, a little more detail on how to do the moves so that when you do the workout, you are set and ready to go the first time. Besides that, this is a great addition to any exercise library.

BUNS OF STEEL is devoted to strengthening, tightening, toning and shaping the buttocks (buns), thighs and upper legs.
Through a grueling but effective series of exercises following a brief aerobic warm-up, Greg Smithey, former World Class pole vaulter, leads you on the road to a tighter, sleeker, lower half. Greg incorporates the lower body strengthening exercises he used to train for vaulting into his demanding, targeted routine.

Glade to see it on DVD

by Beatrice Sarver from Flagstaff Arizona on 2010-07-20
I tried this several years back and really loved what it did for my legs, I only did the floor work the standing stuff was just to funny, but I hate those work out DVD's that make you feel like a cheer leader. My legs and bum looked trim, toned and slim. Great for any one who can't tolerate all the jumping due to knee pain.

Only VHS I still own!! My favorite workout of all time! 14.95 on official website!

by R. Ford from Starkville, MS on 2010-04-20
I LOVE this workout. I was a kid when my mom bought it for herself in the early 90's. I started using it in High School and I LOVED it. I got so TONED that I had to start using ankle weights when I did the floor exercises to get more resistance. My legs and butt looked so good that my friends would ask me how I did it. I told them all I did was walk a few times a week and do this workout a few times a week. 3 of my best friends actually started coming over and doing the workout with me. I am now the mom of a 15 month old baby and I want to start doing it again. I have finally lost all of the baby weight, but I am not nearly as toned as I used to be.

I got rid of all of my old VHS tapes years ago, with the exception of this workout. I have used it SO many times that the tape is starting to wear out. I used a dvd recorder to transfer it onto a DVD, but the tape was already so degraded that it didn't turn out very well. I am so glad they decided to re-release this workout on DVD. I remember searching for a DVD version when I was in college but had no luck.

This has always been my all time favorite workout video. Every time I think about it, I think about the time I was in English class doing a group assignment. We had 10 minutes to come up with as many 2 word noun/adjective combinations as we could think of (chalkboard/dirty, ball/red, alarm/annoying). After a few minutes of writing, one of the boys in my group looked at me, looked up, then said LEGS/DISTRACTING!! That moment will forever be stuck in my mind. It was such a good feeling to know that all my hard work was actually paying off! I want everyone to know that this is an AMAZING workout video. I am upgrading to the DVD but I am buying it directly from [...] because it is only 14.95+4.95 S&H.

floor work

by Rin from on 2009-12-16
I've been using this video for around 20 years, VHS until now. I only do the floor work, second section of the video. I put ankle weights on, turn off the volume and listen to my own music since I know this video by heart. This video 4x a wk plus cardio gets results.

Really? Buns of Steel?

by Carley from on 2009-08-02
First, it is funny to see the style of the '80's. Wow! What were we thinking?

I do like the instructor Greg, but the workout is an all over body workout and doesn't focus on the buns as the title claims it does.

The speed at which the exercises are done, leg lifts, etc. are done at a rather fast pace and though it's okay, personally I think the pace could and should be slowed down a bit. So I played the 'floor segment' in slo-motion and found that it was much better. (I don't do the other portions.) You get the burn either way but with the slo-mo you have more control of your movements and less chance of feeling an ache or pain in your joints.

I say $20 is a bit steep for the quality of this work-out. I'm sure there are better bun workout DVDs out there and so my quest continues......

Helped me loose 40 pounds and I love mountain hiking now

by Momof4 from USA on 2009-07-24
Originally made in the 80s, this video is NOT for you if you care about the appearance of the video and the participants. Sweat bands and leg warmers (and even Jheri Curl I think) abound. And Greg Smithey can drive you CRAZY if you don't mute him or just enjoy the laughs. ("We're going to squeeze out that cheeseburger and that carrot cake.") All that said, I have to say that this is hands down one of the best work out videos ever made (and I've tried a lot) to get your thighs and buns in shape--rock hard and very strong. You can order the DVD directly from Greg Smithey on his web site for only $14.95, so don't pay more than that. I like the DVD cause you can skip the aerobic part (I honestly have never done this part) and start with the floor exercises. I am a mom of 4 and I homeschool, so I have to keep my workout very brief or it just won't happen, so I do 1/2 of the floor exercises one day and the other 1/2 the next, both equaling 18-20 minutes each. The first 1/2 is outer thighs, second 1/2 inner thighs and buns. (I also skip the end ab work; I prefer pilates/ And I do that on alternate days. And I do arm work--push ups and free weights--on my own on days when I have the extra 5 minutes.) And still, after almost 2 years of doing this once a week (okay, some weeks I missed) this workout is still a little tough, in a good way. (If you're new to these exercises, I encourage you to just do as many reps as you can of each, but stick with it and you will see your reps improve.)
This video and a few others (Pilates: Abs Workout; 10 Minute Solution: Rapid Results Pilates; and Ana Caban Maintenance Pilates for weight loss, which I alternated as ab workouts in that order, adding each after I got rather competent at each) were 1/3 of the reason I was able to loose 40 pounds 1 1/2 years ago and it is great feeling fantastic at 40.
The other 2 reasons?
I started eating healthy (highly recommend SuperFoods Rx: Fourteen Foods That Will Change Your Life) and every 7-10 days I ate only fruits and vegetables--as much quantity as I wanted for 48 hours, but only fruits and veggies. I consistently lost 1.25-2 pounds per week, so I lost 40 pounds in about 7 months.
But the most important reason/inspiration for me was Romans 6:12-14...
"Do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness. For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace."
When I was tempted to eat poorly or turn off my alarm and sleep in instead of exercising and doing my morning devotions, I told myself that "sin shall not be your master."
I started the whole process toward weight loss out of sheer obedience to God. I knew He wanted me to take care of myself, and I never had, my entire life really. What I didn't know at the beginning of my 7-month journey was that in the end God wanted me to take care of myself for ME. I have so much more energy now to do so much more. I can mountain hike with my teen and pre-teen daughters and keep one step ahead of them! I used to have pain in my knees occasionally when I went up stairs and lower back pain every morning--no more. I used to snore even--no more! And needless to say, being in the best shape of my life has had a huge, wonderful impact on my marriage.
All that said, I highly recommend this video. There are plenty of buns of steel workouts out there. Some are really wimpy, and in some the instructor yells at you while he's dripping in sweat and bragging about his own physique. I couldn't do most of those more than once or twice because I hated them so much. (I recommend you try videos on loan from your library so you're not wasting money, until you find the ones you like.) Like I said, if you can figure out your own way to get around the 80s look of the video and the quirkiness of Greg Smithey, this workout will deliver life-long, proven results. None others come close to that for me.

If you have 10 Minutes a day you can strengthen your muscles and improve your balance and coordination! QuickFIX Stability Ball Workout brings an exciting spin to the same old workout routine. Broken into three 10 minute segments the first segment will concentrate on the lower body. The second segment you will shape and tone your arms and back. The third segment is a focused ab routine.System Requirements:Running Time: 35 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MISCELLANEOUS/SPECIAL INTEREST Rating: NR UPC: 071083562266 Manufacturer No: 5622-6

There's no doubt that that adding an exercise ball to your routine will perk it up, but--depending on your sense of balance--it may also land you on the floor. Instructor Keli Roberts and her two able assistants make no such descents, but beginners are bound to wobble, which Roberts acknowledges with reassuring frequency. The three 10-minute workouts can be done individually or combined since they focus on different areas. Round 1 concentrates on the lower body with squats while holding the ball, balancing on it for a variation of the yoga bridge and squeezing it with the upper thighs. Workout 2 tones the arms and back by lifting dumbbells while sitting or leaning on the ball and using it for pushups. The final routine is specifically for the abs: sit-ups, curls, yoga's plank and downward dog, and Pilates scissors--all atop the ball. Weights are recommended for the second routine. --Kimberly Heinrichs

one of my favorites

by Adrianna E. Button from Charlotte, NC United States on 2008-12-05
I love the whole series.

Good strengthening DVD. Love that's it quick. You still need to do your cardio someplace else, but for toning...it's great!! I have had this video about 6 years and have not tired of it.

Love the exercises on the ball, very gentle to the body and the modifications are very do-able. Kellie is great too. Perfect for the time challenged!

Challenging, great instructor!

by Katherine from Columbus, OH on 2008-07-13
I recently bought my first stability ball and wanted to learn more ways to use it. This DVD was perfect for that. The exercises are challenging and diverse. The instructor is wonderful and very clear, explaining the moves very well and even anticipating some of the things you may be doing wrong. It's not a boring workout, and certainly a nice change of pace from crunches!

As good as other people have said

by K. Salvitelli from Portland, OR USA on 2008-04-14
Bought this workout based on other's reviews. They hit the nail right on the head. If you are looking for a great first time exercise ball video. Here you go.

Good workout

by Weyrgirl78 from New Castle, DE United States on 2008-04-05
This is a nicely rounded workout (no pun intended). It covers 3 areas of conditioning and gives alternative exercises for those who need more support or less strain.

Very easy, almost too easy.

by K. Nguyen from California on 2008-03-31
I was hoping the workouts would be a little more intense since they are broken up into 10 minute segments. It was really easy and didn't seem to challenge my muscles, perhaps if I do the whole routine 2 or three times it will be better.

The dvd shows 2 college athletes demonstrating 20 of the latest Speed drills. Dvd was produced by the college athletes.

Senior Review

by Anne from Westfir, Oregon on 2010-05-07
I am a senior with two artificial knees and a bad hip. Although this would be a good book for someone it is not what I am able to do. I do think it is more reasonable than some exercise programs for me which are totally unrealistic. I am not an exercise enthusist to begin with so my comments may not be that important.

Excellent transaction!

by S. Rubeck from Minneapolis, MN USA on 2010-04-22
The book was delivered quickly and was everything the seller described it as. I am very pleased with this entire transaction and if I need another book and they are the ones selling it, I will be more than confident from buying from them again. Have no fear, dear potential customer. You are in good hands.

LOVE it!

by J. Rogers from NYC on 2010-03-19
Another winning selection by Tosca. You cant go wrong buying an eat clean book. I recommend all the books in her series. She is a pioneer in the clean eating movement, and she breaks down the program in an easy, relatable manner. Def worth the read.

AWESOME, FABULOUS BOOKS

by Lynette Fury from Western Australia, AU on 2010-02-05
I have recently ordered 4 books in the Tosca Reno range; The Clean Diet Recharged, The Clean Diet Workout, The Clean Diet Cookbook and one for the husband; The Clean Diet for Men - AWESOME books, many thanks to Tosca. I must also thank Amazon for the speedy and brilliant delivery - VERY happy customer, THANKS to all

Not bad but not helpful

by Janis M. Mace from omaha, ne on 2010-01-06
I bought this book thinking it would help me start a weight training program but was disappointed to see that it didn't have very many exercises in it.

The DVD was good and I liked how it was put together but as one reviewer put it, if you have done any type of weight lifting before, this won't teach you anything new.

If you are new weight training then this is a good book but if you have done any kind of weight training then skip this book. You can get a lot more out of any of the women's health magazines or even the men's then you can out of this book.

Description

You pick up the magazines each day, and you’re bombarded with health and fitness information. Advertisements and articles that are designed to impart much needed information to the reader about the state of fitness and health in America today, and what we as responsible citizens should do. How do you determine your current fitness and wellness levels? Does your regular doctor impart this information as you visit, does he inquire each time you go if you believe yourself to be fit and well? Probably not. Nor does he give you any method for determining the status on your own. Fitness centers abound in this country, and most are staffed with counselors who can test your fitness level. Fitness gyms need your monthly fees in order to remain operational. They have no real concern about the condition of your immune system. Physical fitness is a condition of the body alone. Hospitals and doctors need you as a patient in order to remain operational; they want you to know you need to be fit and well, but often leave out important pieces that affect your wellness and, therefore, your ability to be fit. What about eating habits? What about vitamins? What role does our daily intake play in our health, our wellness, and our fitness? What about your wellness level? Are they one and the same? I had the same questions just a few years ago. Even though I thought I was doing all the things I needed in order to be healthy, I knew that I still wasn’t well. I didn’t feel well and my life didn’t seem reflective of someone that was well. I was tired all the time and I seemed to catch every little thing that came my way. Something had to change! I knew I had to do something. That’s when I decided I had to find out the right way improve my state of wellness and fitness. I knew I owed it to myself and my family to get a handle on this once and for all!What I discovered completely changed my life!

PAIGE'S WORKOUT PARTY-LET'S HIP-HOP! (DVD MOVIE)

Reviews

MY DAUGHTER LOVES THIS DVD

by S.Turner from on 2009-05-20
My daughter just loves this DVD! Paige is so adorable and the DVD is so much fun for my daughter and her friends! The Paige's Workout Party series is just wonderful and the dances are so much fun!

I should have read the other reviews

by Karine S. Ptak from on 2009-03-13
I completely agree with the other reviews I saw after I bought this DVD. My poor daughter was so disappointed! it is absolutely impossible to follow if you have no background and, my daughter said it best when she said "what is she doing? It's weird". The five minutes of watching Paige do her thing were awkward.

too hard

by Maryland Crab from SC on 2008-12-20
I read all the other reviews and most of the comments were that the workouts were too hard and they were right. My daughter only used the dvd once.

Amatuer dancer, no dance instruction, only 15 min including filler

by Lena, LMT from Nassau, NY on 2007-06-25
The menu gives only the workout & Bonus. I didn't check out the bonus, you'll see why. There are no chapter choices.
The production values were good, good lighting, good stage, good editing & camera work & sound. They even tried their best to make Paige look good by editing her dance withe her changing outfits mid dance & moving camera back & forth.
Starts with Paige showing off her dance moves. At first I wasn't sure if that was the routine or not since she she moved slower & stiffer then how the dance moves are usually executed. Pagie's dance ability would be above average at a local club, but she does not have enough talent, fluidity, grace, enthusiasm, style or coordination to teach anyone how to dance. She reduced any great moves to a lame simplified core. Hence thinking she was showing modified version that you will learn. I was wrong, that was her at her best.
It then has about 2 min of her drawing on paper with her 2 guy & 2 girl "friends" her age & some stiff acting with some young kids asking what they are doing. "Were about to dance... we have a lot of work to do...."
The teaching (if you call it that) is very quick. "Ok, stand like that, now strike 3 poses..." (Prearranged old school stage posing) "Like this?" "Perfect, next..." She then shows 20!!!!! moves in 7/8 time at ONCE. "Ok, stand, jump out, jump in, step out & in, strike a pose, girls only nod your head & shoulder, boys stay, step kick, side up, walk in a circle, jump back...." She was barely slower teaching then she was dancing her normal speed. You then do it 1x w/music... learn another 20! steps at once, do it 1x with music, learn another several steps & then do the WHOLE routine from the top about....5x? then they get all dressed up like they're on stage & do it all again about 10x. That's it.
The song is bubblegum pop cute, you dance to the chorus over & over & over.....
There were some great moves, but they way she (the other dancers has the same amount of talent) did it, she took all the coolness out of it. She obviously has had professional dance instruction, she called out some ballet French names & she does call out ALL of the dance moves with great timing when doing the dance. She just has no style or much grace or spirit or love for dance. Or understands you can't just show something once in almost true tempo time & expect a person to know how to move their feet.
This dvd was only 16 min INCLUDING her showing off in the beginning, the (what seemed like) 2 min of her drawing with friends & bad acting & credits.

Don't waste your money

by Deborah A. Walsh from Chicago, Illinois on 2007-02-07
This DVD was very disappointing. All you see is Paige flitting around with her friends. Her demonstration of dance steps is horrible. She only gives instructions once and you put it together immediately making it nearly impossible to catch on unless you are a professional hip hop dancer and already know most of these moves. I would never buy another of her DVD's.

Another EXCEPTIONAL title in the Paige's Workout Party series!

by S.Turner from on 2009-05-20
EXCELLENT DVD!!!! My daughter and her friends LOVE the Paige's Workout Party DVDs. The dances in this DVD are so much fun for them...and they have performed the routines in their school talent shows. I have to admit that as a mom I enjoy dancing along too! What a great DVD and a great series!!!! *****************

Kids can't follow this!

by Msn from on 2007-12-16
I Bought this DVD for my two girls (7 & 10yrs) thinking it would be great exercise for them.
I was badly disappointed. Paige introduces 6-7 new moves at once and then expects the kids to do them - after 5 min my kids sit down and just watch Paige move rather than moving themselves! It is simply too difficult and kids give up trying. There is too much emphasis on choreography rather than just exercising....
So if you are looking for an exercise DVD for kids - this is not it!

My 2 year old loves this video

by A. Watson from on 2006-11-21
I bought this for my daughter just before she turned two because she loved to dance, but her dance moves consisted of jumping up and down. We've had this DVD for about three months now, and she watches it at least three days a week! While it is a long, complicated, fast paced routine, I wasn't expecting my 2 year old to be able to learn a routine anyway. However, my husband and I have noticed our daughter learning alot of the moves, and she even narrates along with Paige through out the video. Now when we are listening to the radio, she actually dances instead of just jumping up and down. I wouldn't really recommend this video for a kids workout program, unless they plan on doing it over and over again to learn the routine, but I think it is a great video to just dance around and have fun, and learn a few new moves here and there.

hard to follow

by S. A. Sheers from Virginia USA on 2006-08-11
Shortened version: Don't buy this DVD unless you have an incredible memory.
Long version: My daughter started playing the DVD and sat and waited, because the actual dancing part wasn't for a bit. When the actual dancing part happened, Paige showed us about 7 dance moves then said do it. Of course, my daughter couldn't keep up. Then she showed us a whole new set of steps then said do it. After my daughter attempted to keep up on the second part, Paige told us to put it all together and do both parts. And yet again, my daughter couldn't keep up. It was when my daughter was watching Paige "demonstrate" the moves before doing them that I realized that my daughter isn't getting much excersize out of the DVD. I WOULD NOT recommend this DVD to anyone, especially to little kids, who would definetly not keep up to Paige's high memory rate.

GREAT DVD FOR KIDS!

by Karol Borowiec from Chicago, IL on 2006-03-04
This DVD is just wonderful. I can't say enough about the Paige's Workout Party series! Paige's Workout Party...Let's Dance invites your child into a world of imagination and dance.

Zumba

by camoeyes79 from on 2010-08-19
I really loved the zumba classes at the gym, so I decided to purchase them on my own for home use. The service of amazon was great, faster than I expected. But the videos themselves , I thought, were very confusing. I dont even use them now, because they just leave me frustrated. And He only speaks spanish.

by Melissa from on 2010-08-14
The product itself was in great shape and came very quickly - thank you seller! I am not a personal fan of the routines on the DVD...I was looking for something a little different. But thank you, seller, for getting the product to me much faster than the estimated delivery date!

Get on the zumba wagon!

by B. from Mesa, AZ on 2010-08-13
I took my first Zumba lesson at a gym that charged 10.00 per class. I had so much fun. It was easy, the instructor was great. She took her time showing us the steps.

I decided to save money by ordering the dvd's and workout at home. I am by no means, a dancer or even cordinated. I am doing these 3x a week to start off.
I'm still stuck on the beginner dvd, which does take you step by step each move, slowly and then they will pick up pace. I sweat and my heart beat does get up there so I'm ok with stuck on the beginners dvd for now.
I had to stop and reply a lot in the beginner to catch on to the movements. I told myself that it's ok, the more you do it, the easier it will get.

I tried moving on to the next dvd, however, they move so fast and they move their hips so much that the moves barely resemble what I learned on the first dvd and I have a hard time following along. So, until I get the moves down pat, I think I'll be stuck on dvd 1.

I refuse to give up b/c I do love Zumba so much. Just don't get frusturated. Stay at your own pace and it's ok to stop the dvd and go back until you go the moves down. Either way, your working out, your burning calories, and that's the idea, right?

Have fun!

so much fun!

by smalltownvegan from Greeville, NC on 2010-08-24
Honestly, I am saddened that Infantastic is out of business and i could not buy this new! I would honestly buy this for every pregnant friend I had if i could. It is a lot of fun and my 2 mos old baby loves it. It's fun to sing and dance with her and especially helps during her fussy periods. Highly recommend this product...too bad it is not as available as it used to be.

Great workout and lots of fun for both mom and baby

by MM from Austin, TX United States on 2009-12-08
I purchased this DVD when my first daughter was born. We had lots of fun dancing this. She loved it and asked for it all the time. I would get a great workout and we both had lots of fun. We danced together since she was just a few weeks until she was around 2.5 and got way too heavy for me.

I'll definitely use this DVD with my newborn in a few more weeks.

LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

i had no problem getting these videos from amazon as other reviews note they did. i checked out their website and it appears they (infantastic) went out of business so i was really glad to be able to get the video from amazon since this is my favorite workout to do with my baby boy who is currently 9 weeks old. i recommend this most highly.

I love this workout. Its so much fun you actually forget you are working out. It has great cardio routines to burn fat and carrying my 20 lb baby makes for great strength training as well lol. my 3 yr old loves it to he dances around me and the baby while I do it so everyone ends up working out together

Buy elsewhere

Good workout

by Newport Beach from on 2010-06-08
This is a good dvd to have if you own a rebounder. I don't have the specific one they sell I bought mine separately and I needed a dvd in order to learn what else I could do on a tramboline except jumping up and down. The beginners level is ok but intermedeiate and advance I find them challenging even after I own the dvd for some time now. In general is a good dvd just to change your at home workout routine.

Excellent rebounding exercise

by ronajer from NJ - USA on 2010-04-26
I've been doing the rebounding for almost half a year now and I have to say this is the best exercise I ever had. The first dvd I used was Bouncin' In the House by Blanche Black. It was pretty good for a beginner. Then I purchased this dvd. This offers more exercises in different stages. The intermediate level is good enough for me (haven't tried the Advanced level). JB's team will really inspire you to keep on going till the end of the exercise. As other reviewers stated, start from the very basic if you haven't tried rebounding exercise. I really feel more energetic after every exercise.

The Real Deal

by Joseph Catal from on 2010-04-06
This is what rebounding is all about. All though JB has a number of rebounding DVD's out, this is the one you want.
I've knows people who have been rebounding for months or years, but this one literally kicked their butt.
This isn't for someone who's going to stand in front of a TV and do rebounding thinking they're going to get results.
Start out with the 10 minute first timer. From there, progress from beginner, intermediate and advanced.
These are all intense workouts, and you never step off the rebounder. It's constant jumping.
At the end of the intermediate and advanced, he does an extra 10 minutes of sports specific exercises. You can choose to do them or not.
Each routine is close to 30 minutes. When you're done with these routines, you'll know you had a workout. I'm 52, been doing rebounding 5 years,
and can tell you. This is the best exercise I've ever done. Just go on line and type in "rebounder benefits". That says it all.
This DVD is for the serious person only. Start out slow and work your way up. All though at first you may think it's impossible for someone
to do 30 minutes of this type of intense workout, it's possible. Just keep at it. The pay off is great. Good Luck

Mini Trampline Workout DVD

by N. VanCleve from Ohio on 2010-03-06
I recently purchase a DVD for exercise to use on a mini trampline. I must admit that bouncing is not as easy,as I thought. The DVD is very compassionate and with out the bar,it is difficult the keep my balance. The instructor is aware that not all people are capable of maintaining their balance. So the tempo is okay and as I become more stable, I can keep up. DVD has many levels to choose and as I get better, I will advance also.

Quick service, item not so good.

by Sookster from MN, USA on 2009-02-02
Very good quick service. . .but the DVD had too many scratches and doesn't work very well. . . next time I will purchase a brand new item. I think it was marked "like new" but I would consider it to be "very used".

2 of the workouts ROCK!

by S. christopher from on 2010-07-14
Hi-Lo and Sports Specific are really great. Great cardio and you will work up a sweat! Latin is cheesy and Kickbound is too easy for me.

Great Compilation

by C.A. Heime from Hampden, MA. on 2010-07-10
I own most of the Urban Rebounding DVD compilations, and enjoy them all. The music and presentation is just enough to keep my feet and heart going for the full session. My only wish is that Urban Rebounding would make another DVD, this time with a more advanced and longer workout.

Short but will make you sweat!

by Rina Perez from Grayslake, IL on 2008-04-05
I bought this Compilation 3 DVD online and found me a rebounder in a mall for $40. I didn't think I need the entire Urban rebounding collection 'coz this DVD already has 4 routines. If I want something short but intense [in my opinion], I'd do Shannon's Interval Bound. My heart rate is up and I'm sweating like crazy at the end. It's easy to follow, easy on my knees and it really works. When my weight wouldn't go down anymore but I know I'm eating properly, I'd go back to rebounding for a week or so and that would break the plateau. I also do Tracy's Kickbound as an add-on to the Speed Interval training from Abs Diet 2 DVD. I use my rebounder all the time if I know the routines I'd do would have some high impact moves [even though the workouts are done by different instructors or from different programs]. I highly recommend this program. I only gave it 4 stars because my DVD has poor quality.

HELP RID YOUR BODY OF TOXINS

by Lorraine Yancoski from Las Vegas, NV on 2007-01-09
THIS DVD IN THE MOST FUN I HAVE HAD WHILE EXERCISING. THE MUSIC IS FANTASTIC. I LOVE THE WAY THE INSTRUCTORS SHOW YOU WHAT TO DO. IT IS THE BEST ONE IN THE SERIES. ALL OF THEM ARE GREAT BUT THIS ONE IS SUPERIOR.

Compilation 3 means more variety

by Edward Johnson from on 2006-09-03
Having the Urban Rebounder and the first two compilations just wetted my appetite to see the other types of workouts available in the series. Compilation 3 is also fun, effective, and something I will use to keep exercising without boredom. Kick Bound is led by the vivacious Traci. A little shorter (24 minutes) you will still work up a sweat. Interval Bound is just fantastic as it gives a good workout with a great variety of moves that are easy to follow. Hi-Lo will remind anyone old enough of your aerobics classes from the mid 80's thorugh mid 90's. Latin Bound was not for me, too slow paced and short to be a good workout.

Defective Urban Rebounder

by Beverly Halling from Kailua-Kona, HI USA on 2010-03-02
I purchased this new Urban Rebounder a few months ago through Amazon. Prior to its arrival I had injured my back so knew I could not and should not try it out yet. The box it came in was in perfect condition so I knew there would be no damage to it so I just set the box in my bedroom until I felt like it would be safe for me to use it. I was surprised beyond belief to find that the rebounder had two huge factory defects so it could not even be opened up. Both of the ends that were supposed to slip inside of the square ends so the rebounder could be set up were so defective that they could not be put into the square ends where they were supposed to fit. I had friends come over and look at it. They said since the heavy duty metal that it is made of could not be pounded back into shape there was no way to set it up. I contacted Customer Service at the Urban Rebounder [...] and was surprised at the uncaring response I got. They said to return it with the order number, etc. and that I would have to pay the shipping. I have no order number with the company since I bought it from Amazon. I explained all of that in my email to them. I then contacted Amazon and was told I could return it for a partial refund!!! Here I try to be a decent customer of these two companies. The defective product they sent to me was not my fault. I in good faith purchased this Urban Rebounder from two companies that I thought were very reputable. When they have something happen that does not fit their normal return policy guidelines they should have someone in their customer service department that recognizes this and make it right with the customer. I am 78 years old and was trying to do something good for my health and then I get treated like this. Shame on them. I am going to report the incident to the consumer divisions in the states where these companies operate from in the hope that they will be taken to task for this. if I could have found an email adddrss for Mr. J.B. Bern who invented the Urban Rebounder I would have contacted him but I couldn't find one. Beverly Halling

Amazing!!! JB Berns is my favorite trainer now and probably forever

by Ellora from Broomfield, CO USA on 2010-01-22
If you have sports related injuries, you must buy this DVD and use it. I felt better after the first session of exercises. Like JB Berns says, "Start living a pain free life".

My Story:
I was suffering from tennis elbow on both arms from pulling a fireman's high rise pack up a to a fourth story window. It affected my arm and hand strength. I couldn't hold a gallon of milk with one hand, let alone pour from it. I had many other limitations because of this injury. I am an athlete and work out all of the time and this injury put a damper on most of the activities I love, even my precious long mountain bike rides.

I have lived with this issue for a year and was ready to go to a Physical Therapist which I was dreading because of the precious time it would take but I was getting desperate to get out of pain and regain mobility and then...

...I bought this DVD after reading a positive review and I am so glad I did and want to thank that other reviewer as well. JB Berns clearly knows his anatomy, physiology and his injury rehab as well. This guy is no dumb jock trying to get rich off of his programs. He seems to really be passionate about helping people and sharing his knowledge.

I started out by getting his Urban Rebounding Mini-Trampline system for some at home aerobic activity and to break up the winter work out doldrums and stumbled upon this "Rehab Your Body at Home" DVD. I'm so glad I did. By the way the Urban Rebounding mini trampoline DVD's are fun. Jumping on the mini-tramp is so much fun. I feel like a kid again. Bouncing is a fun way to burn calories and the DVD's keep it interesting. I wish there were more mini-trampoline workouts by JB Berns or anyone for that matter.

I have never written a review before for any item I have purchased through Amazon or any seller. I am almost glad that I got this injury and found this awesome at home solution just so I can now encourage any one out there who has similar injuries to get this DVD and use it.

Next, I am going to work on the knee rehab for a really old running related injury. Thanks, JB Berns!!!Urban Rebounding : Power BurnUrban Rebounding Compilation 4 DVDUrban Rebounding Workout DVD, Compilation 3Urban Rebounding Workout DVD, Compilation 2Urban Rebounding Workout DVD, Compilation 1

good rehabilitation video

by Victoria Besmer from on 2010-01-10
I dislocated my elbow and went through physical therapy. But that wasn't enough to maintain my elobow in good condition. The excersises on Urban Rebounder DVD are simple and very effective. I use it almost every day and feel very good.

Rehab your body

by Cynthia Stilley from VA, USA on 2009-04-02
This was recommended to me by a marathon runner. I have bad knees and arthritis in my hands. The workouts are helping both. There are beginner and advanced workouts for lots of body parts and I've done some of them. I don't like the music or the background bunnies who don't always show good form. He starts talking and teaching before the video switches from the segment title to the actual video, so you can feel a bit scrambly getting into position. I don't much like his voice. But the exercises and stretches are in line with my physical therapy. All in all, I'm glad I bought it and use it.

Excellent DVD featuring exercises for rehabilitation, stretching, and flexibility

by Beth Cholette from Upstate NY USA on 2008-10-30
This DVD by instructor JB Burns is also known as JB Burns' Freedom Restoration Series. It contains a series of rehabilitative workouts addressing seven different areas of the body. For each area, there is a "Series A," which is more beginning-level and a bit less intense, and "Series B," which includes more intermediate exercises and more active stretches, for at total of 14 workouts on the DVD. Most of the workouts are about 15 minutes long, although some are as short as 11 minutes, and a few are as long as 23 minutes. All of the workouts feature Burns with two female background exercises (the women are different in each segment), and the only props that are needed are a chair and a mat for the floorwork. I have broken down each body area in greater detail below.

BACK
The back segments were the longest at about 23 minutes each. The A Series focuses mainly on lower back and core stretches; it includes some beginning crunches, prone moves, work on all fours, and a few kneeling and standing stretches to finish. B Series takes it up a notch with intermediate pelvic tilts, crunches and bridge work. It also contains more exercises for the hamstrings and more intense low back stretches, including some tough work in the prone position.

SHOULDER
Both series consist of about 12 exercises. In Series A, the stretches are more basic, moving the shoulders through all planes of motion. There is also some isometric work. Series B is more active, with many of the exercises being the same as moves that you would typically do with weights.

HIP & KNEE
Series A focuses includes exercises to mobilize the kneecaps and strengthen the quads. It includes various hip stretches, including isometric and hip flexor stretches, and the series is performed almost entire on the floor. In contrast, Series B features stronger stretches for the hips and hamstrings, and it consists mostly of standing work.

ANKLE & FOOT
This is the only section where Burns and the women do not wear shoes; each segment is about 13 minutes long. Series A starts out with manipulative work for the toes and ankles. Continuing in a seated position, there are various stretches for the toes, ankles, and feet. Series B offers similar stretches, but from a lying position; this segment ends with additional standing moves.

HAND & ELBOW
Both A and B contain 12 exercises and are about 12 minutes long. The A Series begins with a finger massage and continues into many different types of wrist stretches, including some isometric movements. In Series B, there are more active finger stretches and then a different sequence of wrist stretches.

ABDOMINAL
These series are short at about 11 minutes each. Both A and B follow a similar pattern: the series begins in a standing position for a brief stretch, then moves to the floor for a series of abdominal crunches and bridge work. Series A includes isometric moves, whereas Series B includes more intermediate/advanced crunches. Both series end with a brief stretch.

FLEXIBILITY
Both of the series in the Flexibility portion offer a sequence of stretches for the entire body, and thus these segments would work well for stretching after a workout. The two segments are actually quite similar, covering areas such as wrists, low back, mid/upper back, chest, groin, hips, hamstrings, and ankles; perhaps the only differences are that Series A includes neck stretches, and Series B goes into the stretches a bit more deeply.

As the DVD case notes, these workouts are designed to rehab the body, and so they would be excellent for anyone suffering from a sports-specific injury--for example, the shoulder rehab for golfers. However, the entire DVD is ideal for anyone who would like to improve posture and increase flexibility. I know that I will appreciate having this DVD on hand both for when I feel the need to get some extra stretching in or especially whenever I might be experiencing any specific aches and pains that need to be addressed. The only thing that I did not like about this DVD was the music; the case describes it as having "great music and high energy," but I found the fast-paced music jarring for a workout billed as gentle and rehabilitative in nature. Otherwise, however, this is definitely a valuable addition to a home exercise video library, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Description

The "bounce effect" is what makes Flingo such a thrilling and unique game experience. The elastic Flingo cloth stores the kinetic energy of the impacting ball in its deformation and gives it back to the ball through the spring force that has been created - similar to the way a trampoline largely returns the energy of the jump to the gymnast.

Official rules of the game:

Court size: 6.70 x 6.10 m (Badminton doubles court)

The game has two objectives. Each player (in doubles, each team) must prevent the ball touching the ground within the own side of the court. In addition, the ball should then be played to the opponent's side of the court in such a way that the opponent cannot prevent it touching the ground or plays it into the net or "out". The game is played according to beach volleyball rules up to 21 points with at least a 2-point lead. Each point counts regardless of who serves. The ball may only be played with the cloth - without any contact with parts of the body. The player who wins the point has the right to make the next serve. The serve must be made from behind the baseline, in that the player throws the ball up himself and catapults it with the stretched cloth to the opponent's side of the court.

Exercises to try:
2-man exercise basic movement I
Objective: develop a feeling for the elasticity of the cloth - trampoline effect. 2 players face each other about 2m apart. One has his cloth stretched, the other holds the ball in his hand. The first player then throws the ball in an arc at about head height to the cloth of his partner. He moves the taught cloth gently towards the ball from below, so that it flies in a steep arc (about 1 m above head height) back to the thrower and falls from above into his open hand. When that has been done 5 times without a mistake: switch roles.

Flingo Set Includes:
Two Flingo Cloths made of bi-elastic nylon Spandex fabric,
Flingo Ball,
Plastic Carrying Case.

Features

• Brand new award finalist best beach game of the year
• powerplay with no hassle
• The game develops and immpressive trampoline bounce which keeps everybody fit
• The fun-factor is incredible which makes it highly addictive for neverending play

Very Satisfied

by MT from on 2009-05-26
I love this trampoline. It is sturdy, stable, durable and most importantly, a lot of fun! It folds and is convenient for my studio apt. I recommend this product to anyone.

Description

Now is the perfect time to jump-start your health! In physical activity, you normally use as much energy decelerating as you do accelerating. However, by bouncing on a rebounder, the force is recycled upwards at the bottom of a rebound bounce instead of being used up. This can help you lose weight, tone up, and get the shape you've always wanted. NASA has conducted studies that prove that rebound exercise is 68% more effective than jogging and is a very low impact exercise. Low impact rebound exercise places little to no stress on your spine, joints and surrounding tissues which makes it the perfect exercise for people of all ages, shapes and conditions. Bounce while you are watching your favorite television program or listening to music you love. There is no better way to spend that time! Jumbo springs deliver a soft bounce. Springs are shielded by a protective cover. Individual spring mounting pins prevent frame wear. All steel round frame for superior durability. User weight limit is 250 lbs. Dimensions: 38" W x 5"H, weighs 17 pounds Assembly: Assembly Required: Yes Assembly Level: Low Assembly Time Required: 5 minutes DISCLAIMER: Consult your physician before beginning this or any exercise program.
