DVD Reviews of David Kirsch's Sound Mind Sound Body Ultimate Fitness Boot Camp
DVD Review: Effective Total Body Workout that Requires No Space
Summary: 5 Stars
I like the workout in the DVD, because of several reasons:
1. It is a well-thought total body workout:
David makes the workout that works the entire body by either combining a cardiovascular effect with a traditional weight movement (e.g. jumping jacks with shoulder presses or extension of arms to sides and upwards), or incorporating total-body movements (e.g. squats thrusts, knee-ins).
The DVD has 4 sequences of jumping (they appear separated from each other, throughout the DVD):
-Jumping Jacks with shoulder presses
-Frog jumps
-Power Squats or Squat Jumps
-Jumping Jacks with extended arms to the sides and overhead
2. It is made for home, even one with no space
The most space-requiring movement in the DVD is the squat thrusts - in other words, you don't need more than the length of your own height.
I live in an upper floor of an apartment unit and am often worried that the impact of my jumping might annoy my downstair neighbors. I use a yoga mat when I do the workout, and this nicely absorbs the shock of my weight, wiping out my concern for noise.
3. The workout is adjustable to different fitness levels/daily energy levels with one's own modification
Yes, it's a tough workout, but because it is not technically challenging (we already know and can do lunges, squats etc.), after the initial trial of the DVD, I quickly learned to adjust the exercise to my daily motivation and energy levels. For example, if I felt very energetic, I might do the entire jumping jack sequence with shoulder presses (the standard one in the DVD is first jump the jacks around 10 times, then add the shoulder presses and jump for another 10 or so times, and finally jump few more times without the shoulder presses). On the other hand, on my lower energy days I might do the pushups with my knees on the floor and so on.
The DVD incorporates 5 pushup sequences (2 in the beginning, 3 towards the end).
4. The workout does not look silly in front of the "home audience"
This may not be a concern for everyone, but I often feel distracted, if I do a dance-oriented workout at home, while the entire family watching. I know that I'm supposed to shake my booty and feel sexy for extra calorie burn...but in front of my grandma...?
This DVD is great on a day, when I have home audience because I don't feel "silly" doing lunges, side squats or arnold presses!
If you like a total body workout that requires little room and helps to tone your body, this DVD won't disappoint.
