Amy's Awesome! I buy every Amy Dixon video I can fine. I love working out to videos at home (I do it 6 days a week) so I like variety. I use other tapes occasionally but I always prefer Amy's. This is a tough exercise routine and you really know you've worked out - but that's a good thing! She is a great trainer - she does every step with you, she's encouraging without being over the top sappy, and she works you hard. I recommend this tape for someone who really wants a work out, not just a waste of time. Linda
Wonderful work out This is a wonderful work out, it works the whole body and is challenging. I definitely love it and I'm very glad that I purchased it.
Women's Health Magazine Exercise Video I viewed this exercise DVD as soon as I received it. The menu is in segments which makes it easy to pick and choose which exercise routine you want to do at that time, i.e. cardio, strength, core. It also has a yoga routine as a bonus at the end of the recording. Women's Health: Perfect Body Workout
Good instruction, tough workout for a used-to-be-in shape type! Amy Dixon gives really clear directions and lead time before switching moves. Her voice and comments are more helpful than distrcting.
I like that the DVD is divded into segments: warm-up, cardio, strength, stretches. The two problems I have with it are first off, the Pre-built workout has some lag time in the transitions. It is basically palaying the whole DVD which leads to my second problem, which is the whole workout is too long for me! I'd like a nice balanced 45 minute or so workout for teh pre-built one, but it's over an hour. It's easy to work around with the remote, but that is why it is 4, not five stars in my book. The workout has me winded and sore- both good signs since I got it to get back in shape and lose some pregnancy pounds.
Another good one from Amy I bought this DVD after doing Amy's UFB and TW10 DVDs for weeks on end and finally getting bored with them. This DVD seems a little harder than the other two, depending on how you do it. I will be honest and admit that I've never done this entire DVD in one sitting (not that I'm actually sitting. I wish!) It is 67 minutes long and, since I refuse to get up before 5:00, I don't have that much time. But I have been alternating, doing either the cardio and the core sections together, or strength and core together. Then on "slower" days I do just the core followed by the bonus yoga segment. I have never done yoga before, but I enjoy that bonus segment now and then. Feels really good but still makes you feel like you did something "extra". My trouble spot is definitely the kidney fat on my lower back. I saw results in my body tone while doing Amy's UFB and TW10, EXCEPT in my abs/back. So I was getting very discouraged. That is why I tried this DVD and always do the Core & More section. And I do think in the few weeks I've been doing it, I can feel some firmness finally happening back there. So if any of you are specifically looking for core work like I was, I would definitely recommend this DVD of Amy's over her other two. My one complaint is that, during the core section, Amy says to "Follow Stephanie for a modified workout." (She does that in all her DVDs, and usually you can notice that the modifier person is doing easier moves.) However, on this section, I don't see Stephanie doing ONE thing different than anyone else. So on days my body is telling me to take it easy, that is very frustrating and annoying. Otherwise, this DVD is another butt-kicker with a little different format than Amy's other two. So if you love Amy like I do but want something a little different, give this one a shot!
