DVD Reviews of Prevention Fitness Systems: The Abs Advantage With Chris Freytag
DVD Review: Hard Core Exercisers BEWARE: This Isn't Made for You...!
Summary: 3 Stars
Prevention has produced a pretty good series of at-home exercise programs. However, most of their DVDs are geared towards the beginner/low intermediate category, and this one is no exception.
The format is made up of four 8-minute ab routines (each routine has the same built-in 2-minute warmup and 2-minute cooldown which can be skipped when they become annoying). The routines are: stability ball, pilates, classic abs and core training. Chris Freytag is an encouraging and knowledgeable instructor with a cheery, slight Minnesota accent. The moves themselves also help to make this program noteworthy even for advanced exercisers. I was pleasantly surprised to find that even in the "classic abs" section, there were actually very few "classic" moves.Chris manages to put a different spin on almost everything, so the exercises stay fresh.
In my opinion, the least challenging is the pilates routine. In this, you will find roll-ups, the saw, the hundred and some others. However: One- I guess I'm a purist, but it always kinda bothers me when a "pilates" segment is done in shoes, and Two- They either moved too quickly or didn't do enough reps, because I hardly feel any sort of burn.
The most challenging for me was the core training section (though, ironically, not a great ab routine). The core training section incorporates squats, plies, planks,and twisting. I really like the music, and it makes me break a sweat every time. However, I feel it most in my buns, thighs, arms and sides of my waist...and very little in my abs. Go figure!
The most effective ab sculpters for me were the classic abs and the stability ball.
However...NONE of the routines gave me a significant burn with just one 12-minute session. I feel that any intermediate-to-advanced exerciser would have to combine them. As I am always looking for SHORT, effective routines to add onto my 45-minute+ workouts, this defeats the purpose.
I would have to recommend in its stead 10 MINUTE SOLUTIONS' BLAST OFF THE BELLY FAT with Suzanne Bowen. It does what is says...in 10 minutes!
