DVD Reviews of Kathy Smith: Matrix Method - Power Walk for Weight Loss
DVD Review: great caloric burn, great cueing, great workout...who knew indoor walking could be fun?
Summary: 5 Stars
I decided long ago I should cancel my gym membership and spend the money on dvds just because I'm more likely to workout at home. Because of that, I've built up a fairly decent collection to compare. This is a great one!
Instuctor: I think an instructor can vary via the routine. I totally panned another one of Kathy's dvds because she was hard to follow and the cueing was bad. Not so in this one. This is really the first dvd I've seen that truly stretches as a 5 star dvd for both a beginner to an advanced fitness person using the same moves...because the calorie burn is high (I'll go into that in a minute), it keeps your interest, but the moves and cueing aren't so complicated that you need a dance degree to follow them...you will pick them up without having to use your "rewind" button to do so. so both a beginner and advanced will enjoy it and get a great return.
caloric burn: And isn't this what matters most? I wear a bodybugg to measure my daily caloric burn...and I only mention this becaiuse what I say is not based upon perceived exertion but measured exertion...I burned a high number of calories during this workout...it gets an A plus on what it's meant to do, yet it does so without FEELING difficult. Big plus. Burned more than during many of my other cardio dvds.
Moves: You'll burn the calories by simple steps and arm movements but not lots of squats and things that may hurt the joints or knees of a beginner. (squat moves aren't a problem for me but I know they are for some and, in all honesty, it's nice to have a routine that doesn't focus totally on those since so many already do. It's different and works you out without stressing out joints, much like an elliptical does!) It's a decent cardio routine and may even make you replace any outside walks where you can't do the arm movements to double your caloric burn without looking crazy outside--indoors you can follow on increasing your burn through the arm movements she shows that double your burn!
set: It's pretty cool how they added interest to the set...but also hard to explain. Kathy goes from in front of a screen with her crew on this enormous screen behind her in a canyon setting, to sometimes them both being on screen...It's pretty clever and pretty cool and a pretty setting.
Energy: high but, unlike the last dvd I hated of Kathy's she doesn't have her chorus behind her hooping and yelling for no reason. That was a relief. She's toned down the unneeded yelps and kept the energy high to motivate in my opinion
price: for such a solid dvd this is a steal. I will be honest, it's the only reason why I bought it. I mentioned already that Kathy doesn't always put forth 5 star dvds for me (she may be perfect for others...I just can't always follow her) so it was a risk, but both a fitness magazine and 2 people in a class I teach gave it a positive review so I thought perhaps this one was different...
and it was!
whether you are looking to get started in a workout routine, looking for an alternative to walking outside when it's rainy, cold, hot or grows boring, or whether you are ready to boost your caloric burn because you'd just been walking but not doing ab moves and arm moves to double your return and caloric burn, or whether you always workout inside but want a good solid cardio routine that's interesting, has good instruction, and will burn that fat faster than many out there...
this is a agood one!
