Customer Rating: Summary: A good workout :-) Comment: This 45 minute workout is really good although a little practice is needed to get it right. The moves can be challenging and you may not pick it up first go. You'll definately increase your range of flexibility and you'll strengthen your core muscles. Karen is definately one of the best cuers and instructors out there. She's great at letting you know what's up next and she has a soft spoken and friendly way of getting those instructions out. You are working the abs and back at most/all of the time and before you know it, you're done. She keeps you busy from start to end and you have fun while you're at it.
Don't get frustrated if you don't get it first time around. While I'm not completely new to Pilates, it's not always easy, but so enjoyable to do that it's worth the 'practice' and you'll feel really good afterwards. Customer Rating: Summary: Not enough focus on the back Comment: This is for the core, abs & back. There was only about 15 minutes set aside for the back on this 45 minute video. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Work Out! Comment: After suffering with chronic back pain for over a month, my Osteopath recommended I start doing Pilates instead of getting manipulations. I rented a few different Intro to Pilates videos, and this one happens to be my favorite. Although I have always been fit and toned, this video was a major challenge for me. Karen Voight is an excellent, thoroughly knowledgeable instructor. Within a few weeks my lower back was no longer tight and spasming. Also, the ab exercises on this DVD are awesome. I have lent this DVD to many of my friends and they all agree - it's a challenging but great work out! Customer Rating: Summary: love it!!! Comment: I Love, Love, Love this video. I had a baby a year ago and am still trying to get back into shape. I love this video because it is challenging, but not overwhelming. It's a wonderful combination of pilates and gentle stretching. I love to do it after I get off of the elliptical. It is a great way to cool down. It's 50 min so it seems a little daunting at first but it goes by so quickly. I always feel long and lean after doing it. I am definitely seeing a difference in my posture. I also love this video because Karen does not have one of those overly sugary, sappy voices that you usually find in these kinds of videos. She is gentle and soft spoken without being cheasy. Hope this helps! Customer Rating: Summary: Too strenuous Comment: Too strenuous if you had a bad back and way too long to try & do every day...
