Excellent!
This is a great, thorough ab workout that only takes 10 minutes. There's a warm-up that doesn't really seem necessary, especially if you do cardio beforehand. You'll work all of your abs from every imaginable angle. Kathy Ireland seems very pleasant and non-annoying; she talks for instruction purposes mostly and keeps chatter to a minimum. You can really feel your abs working hard. ... Read more

Easy but good :->
Sometimes you want an exercise DVD that focuses only on your abs.This is one of those and it's good, but very easy and not for advanced exercisers.It's really more of an introduction to using a stability ball for building up your core.She gives you a lot of instruction first, so you don't feel totally out of sync on the ball and you'll feel comfortable on it.Then there is the 20 minute workout.During that, there is an optional final part that uses dumbells for arm exercises and upper body work (there are advanced options within that too).All you need is weights and the ball and a lot of balance, but using a ball is really enjoyable because you can feel your abs tightening the whole way through.I really like Leslie.She's experienced and pleasant to listen to and also encouraging.This is a great workout but definately for beginners and way too easy for advanced people.This is a good starting point if you haven't used a ball before.

Leslie Makes It Easy!
After purchasing my stability ball, I attempted to do the exercises printed on the instruction manual.I gave up quickly because the exercises seemed too difficult for a beginner.I am a big fan of Leslie's other walking videos, so I decided to give this one a try.True, it's not the most challenging, but it's a great place to start if you're a beginner to stability ball exercise.

It is what it is............
I have to laugh at and have a BIG pet peeve with those people who say this DVD isn't "challenging" or "hard" enough for them and that it's "too basic", etc.

FAST, TARGETED, AND VERY EFFECTIVE
This is a great workout especially if you, like me, are always crunched for time. They're short, done in proper form, and very easy to follow.There are three programs to chose from and each only 12 min. long. Each level a little harder then the first. Each program starts out with an optional demonstration of proper form that's great for beginners.You can skip it (on the dvd version) once you are familiar with the routines.The workouts focus on each area of the abdominal muscle (upper, lower, and mid-section).There's three different workouts per level, each done in three sets of 15 reps. After every complete set (45 total reps), a stretch is done for muscle flexibility before starting the next set.The models are in great shape but very dry.Other then that, this is a great buy and highly recommended.If you stay consistent, results are guaranteed.

Skip it
Although the exercises are effective, the tape is VERY boring. The women doing the exercises look so completely blank and don't look at all as if they are enjoying themselves. There is one section where when performing an example of one of the exercises the woman is SO BORED she is tapping her fingernails on the floor while doing the ab exercise! They all look like lifeless,unapproachable manniquins! They may do alot for you abs but the dullness of this video completley zaps your motivation.Read more

Overall, a Good Workout
I LOVE that it is only 30 minutes long!Exercising has never been a joy for me.Getting noticable results from a short workout is a big plus!I agree with other people about the static bar on the bottom of the screen, it just won't go away.Other than that it's a decent tape.It dosen't make you feel like checking the clock to see when the torture will be over.It quickly produces muscle definition, unlike some other tapes.I give it four stars because of the static.

Good Workout - Fairly quick results
I bought this tape mainly for toning.I did not need to lose weight but wanted to shape up after having two children.I agree with other reviewers that this really is a good overall lower body workout.I felt stronger and could see muscle definition in my legs after a month of doing this video 2-3 times a week.Yes, the instructors are peppy and the music is a bit cheesy, but I found the workout itself to be worth the money I spent on the video.I also like this particular tape because it is only 30 minutes long and I have time to do the workout and jump in the shower while my kids are napping.My only complaint is that the tape itself is poor quality. I returned it twice and just decided to live with it when the third copy came the same way (the static bars show up from time to time and no amount of tracking adjustment seems to get rid of them)I've read other complaints about this feature so they must be coming from the company this way.

30 minutes of sports like moves
This video consists of 3 segments, based on in-line skating, martial arts, and ballet. Rather than a 'buns' workout, I felt it really works my legs, especially inner thighs. I don't really feel like the in-line skating section is a challenge, but the martial arts and ballet sections make you work. I think this is a great lower body work out, with adequate warm up and cool down. (30 minutes long)Read more

my A-S felt it, a great butt workout
I loved the TNT Series. hart puts together great workouts for beginners who need help, and I really enjoyed her TNT Series, especially the Buns & Thighs workout and Arms & Abs, but the cardio was great too. My (...) felt this, she really got my butt sore with the great toning...no pain no gain! She is very fit and leads by example, which is why I buy all of her videos.

great to do when time is tight
i really got alot more of a workout than i expected during the TNT workouts. THe Buns & Thighs were feeling the next day, which always tells me things are being worked. Hart's other TNT videos are also great, i love the idea of ten minute bouts of exercise when i am short on time. These are well worth it.

Good but not great
TNT Buns and Thighs is a 30 minute workout, including a 5 minute warm-up and 5-minute cooldown. This workout is perfect for beginners but for me, a more advanced excerciser and modern dancer, this was not the best workout. It was not difficult or interesting enough. Still, I liked the instructor, Leisa Hart. ... Read more

Great tape!
I liked this tape! I was an experienced exerciser, and I barely made it through the first time. After doing the tape at least 3 times a week, after about two months there was no doubt about the effects! My legs and buns are smoother and tighter! I was surprised that for only ten minutes of workout, I could get these types of results. Janis is upbeat and stays with the rythmn.I now only have to use the tape for extra toning with my other workouts. I would definitely recommend this tape.

Not For Advanced Workouts
I didn't like this video very much because I found the moves were done too quickly to give good results.It was also very difficult if you didn't have a chair of the perfect height around.On the bright side theinstructors were cheerfull and positive. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Eight minutes may not seem like much, but when you're targeting one muscle group for the entire time, your muscles will burn! Jaime Brenkus, a friendly and competent instructor, takes you through a steady eight-minute workout for the buttock muscles: squats, lunges, and a variety of butt-press moves. All are done using your body weight, no additional weights required. A nice effect is a timer counting down the seconds of the particular move and the minutes of the whole workout. As time-efficient as an eight-minute workout is, you might feel cheated spending your money on such a short routine, so they throw in a bonus workout: an eight-minute leg toner. You do 30 seconds each of a variety of standing exercises that target legs and thighs. You'll feel this one! Read more

Perfect Workout for the Buns
I bought the video about a week back and I have no complaints. Its a great workout for the buns. Starts with a 2 minute warm up and then three different exercises for the rear. You feel the pain and it definitely works. Its just an 8 minute routine and one can definitely find time for it.

works great
I started out with a very weak , injured back, and no abd strength at all. I did this tape, along with Quick Fix pilates, and now I have a stronger back, and my oblique muscles are showing up on my stomach. Easy to use, and get stronger tape, instructor is not annoying, tape is not too long, and I look and feel great. also had great results with 8 min buns.wonderful work out, just do it

Great tape!
I bought this tape originally in a set (8 minute buns, 8 minute Abs) and I love them both!I had tried Denise Austin's tapes and she was WAY too bubbly sweet for me.Jaime is a lot more "to the point."It isonly an 8 minute tape, but you'll definitely feel it the next day - I wouldpace yourself when you do it for the first time. ...

Box set makes the grade for this couch potato.
If you're looking for a workout that will have you sweating profusely, these are NOT going to be the tapes for you.If, however, you want soemthing requiring no special equipment that will give you good results in a fairly short period of time (both daily and overall), then these might just work for you.
Good workouts featuring non-traditional/ballet-style toning
The Lotte Berke Method (LBM) is a non-traditional type of toning workout developed by a Russain dancer of the same name and brought to America by Lydia Bach.Drawing from dance and other similar disciplines, many of the exercises require the use of a ballet barre, and the focus is on making small, precise movements to facilitate the development of long, lean muscles.The hallmarks of LBM include an emphasis on stretching throughout the workout and use of the "Lotte Berk tuck," which is a pelvic tilt used to emphasize the movements.Each workout begins with a warm-up of marching in place, lifting your knees high, and each ends with a "Shape by Stretch" streching segment.
Recommend but think it's too short
I have practiced Pilates for 6 years one on one with a Pilates guild instructor (machines and mat) and was looking for another type of exercise in the same genre to mitigate some boredom in my exercise routine.

"If you don't squeeze it, no one else will!"
This is one of the first exercise tapes I ever bought, I was skeptical about the ponytail wearing beefcake on the cover but it was on sale so I went for. I was taken aback at first by the super silly nut warm-up (think Jerry Lewis trying to do a rasta-man impression) but then I kind of warmed up to Tony, he comes across as kind of a goofball but when he is talking business and form he is all serious. For an absolute never worked out a day in my life beginner (I am 30) I felt warmth and encouragement from Tony and I still find this tape challenging as it appeals to all fitness levels. I am in the best shape I have ever been in my life and this tape was my beginning.If you are Mr or Ms workout and super serious this tape is not for you. If you can approach working out with a little humor and a smile, appreciate some warm encouragement and want to feel your buns and thighs burning, go for it... as Tony says "If you don't squeeze it, no one else will!" gotta love him for that.

Silly Guy but GREAT workout
Tony Little is a goofy man, likes to make his workout fun and keep you inspired. This video is intense and well directed.Tony uses a member to ensure your movements are correct and if you stay focussed and committed, the workout pays off with great definition.The first time I did this tape, I felt it for two days.It gets easier with repetition, but it definately targets the prime areas of buttocks, upper and lower legs.If you have a playful sense of humour and are looking for real work, this is a great tape! ...

When combined with the Bonus Blast...
Like Callanetics, this DVD concentrates on the slow movements--you really MUST tuck, you really MUST curl up, or else this DVD is ineffective.Unless you can shut off the phone and close the door on the kids, the amount of concentration this DVD takes for getting one's posture absolutely correct, tucking just right, is not feasible.
Small, isolated movements target the abdominal area
The Lotte Berk Method is a form of exercise developed by Russian dancer Lotte Berk and brought to America by Lydia Bach. Drawing from dance and other similar disciplines, many of the exercises require the use of a ballet barre, and the focus is on making small, precise movements to facilitate the development of long, lean muscles. Unlike the other videos in this series, however, the movements in Hip Hugger Abs, which work the abdominal area, are performed entirely on the floor without the use of a barre.
Effective abwork, inconsistent cueing
This workout is a nice combination of a little upperbody work (I don't care if it's included in the warm-up; pushups and tricep dips work your arms and back), abdominal toning and pleasant stretching.I like the approach: a combination of "Pilatesesque" and yoga-based abwork, as well as some more athletic moves.I've been doing yoga and Pilates consistently for quite a few years now, and while I could do the advanced variations on almost all of the exercises, I was definitely feeling the work.Read more
