DVD Reviews of Pilates For Indie Rockers
DVD Review: Too basic for Pilates folks, too advanced for beginners
Summary: 2 Stars
I have done a lot of Pilates, and I found this session too basic (as have other reviewers). But I think this workout could be very problematic for beginners -- trainer Chaos includes some fairly advanced exercises without proper emphasis on form. In particular, the Teaser (which I think she calls the Vee-Up or something like that -- it's the one she's doing on the cover of the DVD) is an exercise that requires far more focus on form than she gives, if you want to complete the exercise without messing up your back. It is good that she offers alternatives for beginners (and, to be fair, she does offer an alternative for the Teaser), but I fear that there is a big gap between the beginner option and the main option on several of the exercises, and the lack of focus on form will make it easy for folks to hurt themselves.DVD Review: Great work-out,
Summary: 5 Stars
While I agree with the other reviews that this is more of an introduction to pilates, I gave it five stars because aside from it being a good work-out, the video was appealing to look at and time efficient. I know some people like to work out to videos for an hour or more, but I'm a student and it's nice to have a 35 minute work-out I can do in my dorm., shower, then head to class.
There is also the option of turning off the music and then you can use your own. Also the instructions were pretty good. I didn't feel like I had to stare at the screen to know what I was doing, although occasional looks were necessary.
DVD Review: good series
Summary: 4 Stars
i like these 2 dvd's- the production quality is pretty low, but the workout, cast and music are good, with lots of music options, and even the ability to kill the music altogether and use your own.
not an easy workout the first time around, but not difficult to pick up at all- perfect to me, since usually they don't keep my interest long if I nailed it the first time...
DVD Review: Good for Beginners...
Summary: 3 Stars
I was excited to see someone put a spin on my boring old pilates classes, and was excited for this to come in the mail. When I got it, though, I realized it's just one simple workout with three alternate music settings. As anyone who uses exercise DVDs knows, variety is the spice of life, or boredom ensues.
While Chaos and her friends are entertaining to look at, the workout is VERY basic, and as I said, not very long. I would have loved for this to have more "meat" to it. On a good note, the DVD was very good to show a different character for beginners levels, intermediate, and advanced users. So if you're looking for a basic workout with a twist, this one's good. If you need something more, you might have to stick with the same old same old.
Description of Pilates For Indie Rockers
Chaos is back with a pilates workout to harden your core!Ever wonder why every exercise video seems shot on a hermetically sealed soundstage with a Stepford Wife for an instructor and some John Tesh-sounding new-age beat pulsing in the background? Well Chaos has... she's a certified yoga instructor and personal trainer who teaches a rock-n-roll hardbody fitness classes in the center of Hollywood. She thinks fitness videos can have attitude and great music and the kind of badass energy that'll psych you up to work out everyday and get in awesome shape. And who are we to argue with a drop-dead gorgeous yogi who could totally kick our asses? In this DVD you can select your favorite indie rock workout mix (or play your own) and follow along with Chaos' advanced moves or Page's beginner moves.
Features: Beginner & Advanced moves, special instructional "Beginner Session," three selectable channels of music featuring over 30 songs from popular bands including Veruca Salt, Jet Lag Gemini, Bedlight For Blue Eyes, House Of Fools, Alec Empire, Dillinger Escape Plan, The End, Roses Are Red, Two Lone Swordsmen, Sorry About Dresden, Criteria, Ladyfinger (ne), Crash Romeo, Hello Nurse, Novemberkills, Pelican, This Is Hell, and more!
