 Amazing Workout-Not (just for) Beginners January 21, 2008
77 out of 77 found this review helpful
I was really excited to get this DVD, especially since you can pick your level and make it "last" for 6 weeks while adding new levels and new moves throughout the 6 weeks. Now let me preface this with saying, I am extremely fit. I work out 4-5x a week doing cardio for 30-45 minutes at a time. (And when I do cardio the sweat is literally dripping off me in waves.) I also have been doing sculpting DVDs 2x a week for the past 6 months. This workout kicked my butt! Level one is definitely easy enough for intermediate, yet will still challenge those who are in good shape. I just added Level 2 today, and I actually had to stop the DVD and take a 60 second breather because I thought I would either throw up or pass out! You've gotta work me REALLY hard to make that happen!
My only "criticism" is that I don't think this DVD is appropriate for beginners. However, after reading some reviews it is clear beginners are doing it and thriving on it. My advice to a beginner would be to concentrate on form before you concentrate on reps or how heavy your weights are. In the DVD a lot of the participants have really poor form. (Even though the trainers give them a thumbs up.) Watch the trainer and copy them. Once your form is perfect add weights and/or increase your reps. I'm sure any trainer will tell you they'd rather you do one really good move than 10 of the same move with poor form.
If you want to loose weight and you stick with this DVD I can't imagine you wouldn't change your life and body. And on the same token, if you are already in shape this DVD will add variety and excitement to your workout as well as giving you a really challenging workout.
No Nonsense Workout that will change your body May 15, 2008

I am such a big fan of the Biggest Loser Series. I have The Biggest Loser 1, Cardio Max and now this is my third DVD.
As always, the DVD is fully customizable, so that you can workout as long as need or have time to workout.
The instructors (First 20 minute is Jillian, second 10 minutes Bob and third 10 minutes is Kim) are all clear, consise and enthusiastic. Their encouragement is not chatty or irritating. I find it to be fun yet professional.
As for the workouts...good grief! I workout 5-6 days a week, two of those days being devoted to strength training. This DVD works every single muscle that I need it to and I feel like I'm accomplishing a great deal each workout. My arms were burning at the end of Jillians Workout and then on to Bobs. By the Kim's session, I was pooped! I didn't finish it, but I appreciate that because it gives me something to work toward. There are some standard exercises (bicep curls, shoulder lifts), some combination exercises (shoulder raises while squatting), and also some non-traditional exercises like lifting out your arms in a V and then back in..that one is a killer! (I left out that there is a 5 minute warm-up and cool-down on the DVD)
I feel stronger and leaner and my arms show improvement.
Worth every penny!
Great Power Sculpt Workout! February 26, 2008
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
This is power sculpt workout will make you work. I can tell you that you will sweat and your muscles will burn! I alternate this workout with The Biggest Loser Workout: Cardio Max 6 days a week and Fat Free Yoga - Lose Weight & Feel Great w/ Ravi Singh & Ana Brett NOW W/THE **MATRIX** MENU OPTION!!! and Crunch - Super SlimDown: Pilates Yoga Blend at least 2 times a week. I have been doing this routine for 5-6 weeks now and have dropped 15 lbs. Hallelujah! I am grateful to have established a routine that works and can I do it in my own home. P.S. I ignore most of what the instructors say that is not pertinent to the exercise at hand. If you get too involved in what is spoken in general to the biggest loser's contestants it gets a bit annoying. Remember the goal... The workout does work :-)
Best workout DVD! January 21, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have tried my fair share of workout DVDs and this is by far the best. My other exercise DVDs are usually collecting dust after one or two uses, but this one has kept me coming back AND I'm losing inches and pounds after just 2 weeks! The instructors are wonderful and very inspirational. Totally nonthreatening set up/instruction and fun to work out along side. I use the "Maximum Results" program- only 35 mins for level 1. Gets the heart rate up and love the routines with the weights. Each move incorporates upper and lower body so you are able to target many muscle groups with each movement plus alternatives are offered if the movement it too hard or too easy for you. Only complaint- I'm not a fan of the music in the background, but it is easy enough to tune out. All in all, I highly recommend this DVD.
The Biggest Loser Workout: Power Sculpt January 14, 2008
11 out of 12 found this review helpful
Early December 2007, after watching the amazing results from the Biggest Loser Television show, I decided to purchase both the The Biggest Loser Workout: Power Sculpt & Cardio Max.
They came in the mail later December so since January 1st of 2008 I have been working out with both DVDs and have since lost a few pounds and my friends have noticed a difference in my performance in sports and walking and thinning around my face. With 155 pounds to lose I am on a good start. Working out and eating correctly is the biggest key. The DVDs will not help you trim up and loose weight. You have to work out and manage your food intake as well.
On a personal note, I believe in a few months i will look back on this experience and say they (the Biggest Loser Club DVDs) saved my life. You have to get these if you want to see some at home changes in your life.
