DVD Reviews of The Perfect Postnatal Workout
DVD Review: Its good
Summary: 4 Stars
My baby likes it. And its fast. Great for the first four weeks after birth too.
DVD Review: GREAT baby and Mommy workout!
Summary: 5 Stars
Most other workouts show photos of Mom and baby together on the cover, but in the actual video, there is little to no interaction with the baby in your workout. But this video truly involves the baby in Mommy's exercises! I just finished a quick 20 min workout with my baby, and my baby LOVED doing these exercises with me!! He was laughing and smiling, having a ball! I highly recommend this video. I have her prenatal video, which I found to be too advanced for me, but this video is just right. I feel a little sore, but not too much. I got a good workout and some quality interaction with my baby, it's perfect! DVD Review: Excellent work out
Summary: 5 Stars
I am so glad to own this video. I have a 3 month old daughter and she smiles up a storm when we do the exercises together. Even the father tries to join in on the fun. I definatly feel more strength in my upper thighs and mid area. I look forward every time I use this work out video to help myself get into shape again and watching my daughter smile and giggle. Thank You.DVD Review: Good, but only for a couple of months
Summary: 4 Stars
I tried this workout first when my son was 1 month old. And we both didn't like it at all. It was still difficult for him to hold his head steady and that's why it was difficult for me to hold him properly during the exercises. Also he didn't like being put on the floor while I was stretching (workout suggested to "put the hand on your baby so she knows that you are here", but my baby just didn't get that message).
Since I really liked "The Perfect Pregnancy Workout" I gave this workout one more try when my son was 2 months old. This time we both liked it a lot. It was one of the first times I heard him laughing out loud. The workout was good enough to make my muscles sore next day, but at the same time easy enough not to make me afraid of dropping the baby. This time my son was watching me during stretching and it was rather interesting for him.
Now my son is 3 months old and I feel that we are outgrowing this workout. He is becoming too big and too heavy, so I cannot hold him like the workout suggests anymore. I still do the exercises, since it's a real fun for us both, but I think that we have only a couple of weeks left.
So, try it out, it's a real fun (just make sure your baby holds her head steady and pays attention to your movements). But be ready that it will work for you only for couple of months only.
By the way, the workout has a part that can be used during the first four weeks postnatal. It actually doesn't involve the baby - the baby just lays on the floor. Also it was too easy for me even during those first weeks.
DVD Review: good for designing your own baby workout
Summary: 3 Stars
I personally didn't find these workouts helpful and actually injured myself trying the first workout too soon after birth.
However, the way she integrates the baby into the workout actually inspired me to come up with my own set of exercises (actually from Pilates for Moms DVD)which involve the baby. Being able to do even 15 minutes of exercise with the baby included is definitely important in the first few months after birth. So the idea is there, but the workout isn't great.
I will say, however, that I loved her prenatal workout. If you're looking for a good postnatal workout, I'd recommend Pilates for Moms over this one.
