Future Big Loser April 8, 2008 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
So I am hugely overweight, and just had a baby. I thought that I would give this video a try, and I LOVE it. I am still on the level 1 work out, but am getting better every day. I can now do the whole 30 minute level 1 work out. Next week I am going to be adding level 2. In only 2 1/2 weeks I have lost 14 inches and 12 lbs. Now I still have 80 to go, but it is a good start. Bob does the level 1, and he keeps me motivated thru the whole work out. Right when I think I am about to die, he starts counting down, and tells me I can do it, and I believe him. Rather than sitting on my couch hoping the Biggest Loser comes and casts me, I decided that the more logical option would be to bring the biggest loser trainers to me. I would recommend this to everyone, from those who only have 10 lbs to lose to people like me who have 50+.
Motivating! December 28, 2007 17 out of 19 found this review helpful
I just got this DVD last night and tried it this morning because I couldn't get to the gym. Loved it! Did it twice in a row! I love feeling like the Biggest Loser trainers are right in my own home. It's also very motivating to see the Biggest Loser contestants from this season and season's past. The trainers allow for variations in the exercises for easier to hard. Another thing I loved about it was that there were real people doing the exercises, even they screwed up once in awhile which made me feel more comfortable when I was off beat or didn't move along when everyone else did. Make sure you keep your eyes on the trainers as real people also don't always have the correct form, so you don't want to get injured. It was just nice to see the different stages different people were in also, in case there was an exercise I didn't feel comfortable with. Another plus to the DVD is that you have the option to either listen to the trainer talk through the DVD (which I listened to the first time) or you have the option to just listen to music (which I did the second time). The music was pretty motivating :) Can't wait to do this again and I'm going to get the Powersculpt DVD today to mix it up a little! Perfect for those days when it's too cold to go outside to jog/walk OR you just can't make it to the gym! Enjoy!
Great workout! April 8, 2008 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
A little background; I've been working out religiously since the second week of Jan 08 combining 3 days of cardio with 3 days of circuit training with weights. My cardio consisted of 30 min of interval training on my elliptical and 30 min on my bike. Weights are a total body workout with dumbbells. With a combination of working out and eating right, I've managed to drop 15lbs but just recently I've noticed I hit a plateau. I was talking to my sister about my recent stall in weight loss so she let me borrow the Cardio Max DVD to give me a change of pace.
Last Friday, I pop the DVD in, strap on my heart rate monitor (because I wanted to make sure I was working out intense enough) and arrogantly decide to jump into the the "Week 2-4" intensity level (which is Level 1 and 2). I think I was about 10 minutes into the Level 1 workout with Bob and I was dying. My heart rate was reaching 170 bpm and my legs were burning; and I wasn't using any weights!! After the warmup and Level 1 I had to quit. I woke up the next morning and my legs, hind end and abs were sore! It was great!
This is a great workout but will require someone new to the world of fitness to work up to fully being able to complete the levels (which is the whole point). The DVD is mapped out for a 6-8 week timeline. The instructors make it very clear if you can't keep up, then somehow move to keep your heart rate up and join back in when you're comfortable. There's one specific girl in the video (sorry don't know names) that does an alternative version of the exercise for someone less athletic (i.e. push-ups on your knees, fake jump rope, no weights). Trust me, if you keep up with this DVD you will see results and feel better!
Cardio to the MAXXXXX March 10, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I Love this workout. I am a moderate excerciser, I powerwalk and do pilates 4-5 times a week. I have never been a runner, or done much cardio, so for total fitness I decided I really needed to add in the cardio. This is it! I did the Level 1 for a few days, and then needed to up it to Level 2. What an amazing challenge! I aim to lose about 15 lbs to be at my ideal weight and I'm confident that between this workout and it's companion DVD "Power Sculpt" I am well on my way! I've done the workout 4 days so far, and I already notice my butt firming up! WOW!
An Amazing Workout December 30, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is the most amazing workout ever! I highly recommend this video to anyone who is looking to bring their workouts up to the next level. I work out 4-5 times a week and always do at least 40 minutes of intense cardio at each workout. After the first 10 minutes of Bob Harper's workout, I was sweating and my heart rate was definitely up! It is nice to see real people doing the workout along with you and they even mess up from time to time. Bottom line, you have to get this dvd!
