Fitness DVD Roundup,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Rather than doing endless squats and ho-hum biceps curls all the time, work a fitness video into your routine to surprise your muscles and keep things interesting. We've tested out some of the most recent DVDs on the market to help you tone muscles and tighten up all over. Read on to see if any of these options appeal to your fitness interests.
Core Fusion Thighs Glutes
As a marathon runner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's safe to say that I have fairly strong legs. But despite the countless miles I've run,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my legs have never had the shape or flexibility that I'd like. So I was thrilled to try out this new video after members at a meeting I lead had praised Core Fusion classes.
I was hoping for a challenge and I surely got one. The video has five separate 10-minute workouts for glutes and thighs. Each begins with a warm-up and ends with a nice slow stretch, and they can be strung together into one continuous workout. It was exactly what I was looking for: the slow,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], intense stretch of yoga with an emphasis on strength training and shaping. The theory behind Core Fusion is that by stretching immediately after strength training you elongate the muscles, which results in a lean look. The workout was easy to follow, felt very safe and low impact, and while I found it quite intense I think it could be easily adapted for any fitness level. So I was a little freaked when I popped in the Full Workout DVD first. Big mistake! The tempo was super fast so I was all over the place. I quickly popped that out and put in Kick Start. Now, that was better. It teaches you the basic core moves in three 10-minute sessions. I got a workout just from that - I was sweating like crazy.
The next day I did the 20-minute Quick Workout. The tempo was still pretty fast and there were times when I was all over the place, unable to follow,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but by the third day I did get the hang of it. These workouts are definitely a case of practice makes perfect, so I don't think they're great for beginners. I could definitely see myself, pre-exercise days, popping this in and laughing as I pop it out again thinking,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "yeah right." But as with every exercise, I figure as long as I'm moving, I'm burning calories. I did three of the five segments back to back and I can honestly say the sweat was pouring down my face. My abs are sore two days later which, in my opinion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is always a positive and rewarding sign. The 30 minutes flew by and I had a lot of fun - yes, it was a really good time! The set includes weighted gloves which I used to rev the workout up a notch. I will definitely use this DVD on a weekly basis as I keep reading about the wonderful overall impact of boxing. A fantastic mix of cardio and resistance training. The Teaser Collection includes 4 DVDs wrapped in a cute "keepsake" box,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and an endlessly amusing pink feather boa. The first two discs,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Booty Beat and Just Teasing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], break down sexy moves that made me feel like a Pussycat Doll. In Chair Dance and Chair Fit, the instructor guides you through more moves, targeting abs in the former and overall toning in the latter. The combinations were easy to pick up, and while I didn't break a hard sweat, my muscles certainly got a workout. Perfect for learning fun new ways to spice up the dance floor. It taught me a lot and I felt myself connecting more deeply with the "power muscles" the program taught me about.
Although I am a Pilates novice, I am in fairly good shape. I found this beginner DVD challenging in a way that I don't often find in a beginner DVD. I think this is because the focus is so incredibly different than anything I'd do otherwise. I didn't really get sweaty,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but found myself challenged and certainly felt a burn both during and after the workout. I was very energized by the workout and felt myself walking taller for the entire day afterward. With the focus on breath I felt stress relief and a mood elevation. I think this DVD would be good for a short time at the beginning of someone's practice and they would soon want to move on to a more challenging version. But I snapped out of my British self-consciousness for long enough to clear the living-room floor and crank the volume up. The minute I heard the opening chord to Janet Jackson's "When I Think of You" my toes made the decision for me: I was dancing.
Jeanette Jenkins is beautiful,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fun and real, in an almost uniquely non-intimidating way. She's clearly having a great time, and remembers to explain everything with a combination of useful advice and cute stories. The variety of people she has dancing with her are all pretty amazing looking,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but again, real. The routines were mostly simple,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and build easily, giving you a chance to repeat them again and again until you're dancing an entire routine. Me! Dancing! I was so amazed that I hadn't fallen over or destroyed any furniture that I barely noticed I was working out - until I looked at my heart-rate monitor at the end and realized that I'd earned 5 Activity POINTS® values. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be but will continue practicing in order to master these spicy moves. So You Think You Can Dance… watch out! -Cynthia Aveiro,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], PR Assistant
