Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5
1) Keeps its promise! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Do all three of these toning/cardio segments and you'll feel it in your muscles and see it in the results! I love the Pilates segment the best but it's the cardio one that does indeed fatigue the muscles just enough to tell you it's working. The kickboxing segment is just fun! At first I did them separately, but together they are very effective. In all honesty, you need to do a variety of workouts (and eat properly) to get "BIG Weight Loss," but adding one of these segments to another cardio workout or doing all of them should work for most folks! I look forward to doing these workouts! If you're older (nearly 60) like me, stick to 2-3 pound weights.2) Great Workout [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This DVD workout video is one of my favorites, its fun and since there is 3 ten minute workouts it doesn't get boring AND it is effective. I would reccomend it for anyone, I love it!3) Chris Freytag is excellent as ususal [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Any dvd with Chris Freytag instructing becomes one of my favorites and Shortcuts to Big Weight Loss is no exception. Although I have yet to do this dvd without supplementing the kickboxing or cardio sculpt segments with another dvd. Neither segment is adequate alone and together there is not enough cardio for my workout plan. However, Chris' cueing, instruction, and all around positive approach make this dvd a "go to" at least once a week.4) Very good [Rating: 4 out of 5]
This a a good workout when you don't have a lot of time. It targets areas that you may normally miss.5) This will get you moving [Rating: 2 out of 5]
The dvd is broken down to a quick warm-up, a 10 minute cardio/strength workout, a 10 minute pilates workout, a 10 minute kickboxing workout and a quick cool down. Weights are needed for the cardio and pilates workouts. They advise 2 or 3 pounds, but you can also use a heavier weight. If you use a heavier weight, Chris Freytag advises that you will fatigue. She gives good advise and shows "how to" thru out the workouts that a beginner or an advanced exerciser can use. Because the workouts are in 10 minute segments, you don't get bored and things are definitely moving.
