Great workoutthat really works!!!!
I have been using this workout on and off for the last 12 years.Everytime I do it regularly, my body immediately tones up and I lose inches!!!I know it got a bad rep because of Cindy's bad form and because of some "risky" exercises, but if you are an experienced exerciser, you can correct these problems easily.Definitely not a workout for the weak, but its great and you can go at your own pace. The music and backgrounds are inspiring. And Cindy is not an annoying person at all, like some video instructors are.
This workout WORKS!
There are some cons to this workout which I'm sure are covered in some of these reviews.She goes entirely too fast on nearly all of the exercises and tries too look a little "sexy" on some of the moves (which is annoying.)However, the pros DEFINITELY outway the cons - this is an incredible workout with moves I have never seen anywhere else...and it WORKS!I highly recommend this DVD - it has slimmed me down tremendously in just weeks and I feel much stronger.It also makes me work up a sweat, which is a bonus with a strength training DVD.Just take is slower than she does (hit pause while you finish your sets) and once you know what exercises are coming, you can work at your own pace.

Long Time Fan of this workout!
Like many of you, I got this workout video on VHS when I was in college.It really is the best all around workout.The pace is a bit fast but that is solved by the pause button!Not a workout for beginners.And good form will keep you from injury.I used my VHS to death and now I'm upgrading to DVD.Yeah Cindy! ...

When model Cindy Crawford wanted to trim down and firm up after thebirth of her baby, she chose trainer Kathy Kaehler, who had gotten herself back in shape after gaining 80 pounds with her twins. This program includes two short, easy workouts and one long one. Workout A (12 minutes) is a light-intensity routine, mostly stretching with some strength moves such as lunges and abdominal curls, nothing strenuous, with bland background music.Read more

Results are visible
I am a fan of Cindy Crawford's workouts.I was recovering from a lower back injury and looking for something that would help ease me into a good workout routine.After reading the review that this video was actually designed for women who had recently given birth, I figured this DVD would be a good place to start to gently help me exercise, until I could increase my strength for more of a workout.This video is wonderful.The first workout appeared to be "too easy," but I would recommend doing it for at least two weeks, then trying the second workout.The second workout introduces a little bit of aerobic exercise, which Cindy normally doesn't do, and it's fun.Do this one for a about 4 weeks before going on to the third video to build your stamina/strength.The third is definitely the most challenging and the longest workout, but it's fun, and you will notice results quickly, which makes you want to continue working out with this DVD.Cindy and Kathy make a good team here.It's easy to see what each of them contributed to this workout.I strongly recommend it for anyone recovering from an injury, or anyone who is looking for a beginner's workout.This video goes from beginner level (workout #1) to intermediate/advanced, it's an enjoyable workout, and the results received from this workout are all the motivation you'll need to stay in shape.

Good workout!
I worked out regularly prior to my pregnancy.Once I got pregnant I stopped working out.This workout allowed me to ease back into the workout.I did the 1st two programs and felt the workout the next day.
Perfect!
I love this workout more than any of my other postnatal dvds. I don't always have time to do a 45 minute workout so my favorite part about this workout is that it is divided up into 10 minute segments with increasing difficulty. I can usually manage to steal 10 minutes for a workout even on my most busy days! ... Read more

Editorial Review

This 1993 video is a one-hour workout combining stop-and-start cardiomovements that are athletic (no dance) with muscle endurance moves with andwithout light weights. The cardio section uses moves like jogging, jumping, legswings, and power moves such as fast lunge combinations, squats with jumps, andkarate kicks. The lower body strengthening moves include variations of lungesand squats using body weight. The upper-body weight exercises are varied butdone too quickly--it's easy to rely on momentum. Some of these exercises areoddly chosen: a number of the exercises that are supposed to work the chestfatigue the shoulders and back long before the chest muscles feel anything, forexample. You'll certainly feel the many sets of ab exercises, however!Read more

THE NEXT..... NO.... THE BEST CHALLENGE!!!!
I swear by this workout! I'm a 21 year old college student who grew up being the unathletic, out of shape, pudgy girl. I pulled this video out of storage my sophomore year of college and did it religiously for 2 months ( sometimes 2 times a week, other times 3 times a week )! Not only did I shed 2% body fat (as tested by my exercise physiology teacher with the underwater weighing method), but I never looked better! Or FELT better! And people noticed! HECK YEAH! I'm teaching an aerobics class this coming semester and I plan on using this workout. THANK YOU CINDY!!! (and Radu- you're the coolest)!
Challenging and Timeless
If you loathe exercise videos in which the instructor is telling you "good job - keep it up - way to go - that looks good" when you know they can't see you, this is an excellent alternative.Cindy is clear in her instructions, of course her body is inspirational, and she doesn't insult your intelligence.The video itself is shot in some beautiful locations and the music isn't overbearing. The actual exercise sequences are challenging and continue to be so - even if you use this tape several times a week for a few months like I did.The best thing about this video is the results - I used this video several years ago and got down to a healthy size 4/6.I just ordered the DVD version to get me back into shape after having my first baby and can't wait to start this routine again!

Great work out!
I have used this workout tape forever, and finally needed to upgrade to the DVD. I do this video in portions, legs one day arms the next. Legs is about 20 minutes and you will feel the work you did for days. I strongly recommend this video! ... Read more
