DVD Reviews of The Ultimate New York Body Plan

DVD Review: Be careful, this workout can hurt your back
Summary: 3 Stars

Be careful, this workout can hurt your back. The program has much to recommend it but there are certain exercises to be avoided.

I started following the 45 minute cardio sculpting routine about 4 months ago, starting with one day a week and working up to three days per week over the first three weeks. At first I felt incredibly good and probably as fit as I have ever been. Given my age and weight, I was astounded to find that I could work up to the full number of pushups (about 50) in over fairly short period - couldnt do any when I started.

Previous to starting the program I had some lower back pain. At first the exercise helped with my back but then it worsened and changed in character. I bought a newly published back book (The Backsmart Fitness Plan by Adam Weiss - I have not read any other back books), in part because it has recommendations on what kind of exercise to avoid to prevent back injury. Specifically, it recommends avoiding the following that are part of the Ultimate New York Fitness program; jumping jacks, twisting of the spine (eg woodchopping exercise), abdominal exercises using weights, wide grip bench presses, and exercises that increase curvature of the spine (back extensions). Most likely there are many people can do these exercises with no adverse effects, but I am not one of them.

One of the great strengths of the "Ultimate" exercise program is the combination of aerobic, strength and core work in a single workout. The "Ultimate" program has benefitted my fitness considerably, and gotten me to get a good time-efficient workout at home with minimal equipment and space, which is more than I ever could ever accomplish at a gym. I have continued the program by eliminating the offending exercises (especially including anything that involves jumping, back extensions, and wood chop and crunches with medicine ball), and have substituted others from this program or the back book (including pilates and ab exercises from the back book), with substantial improvement in my back pain. Lunges seem to be ok provided that I keep my back straight by leaning forward as recommended. I finish with the last 8 "daily dozen" stretches from the back book (the first 4 are warmups). This all takes about one hour. First thing in the morning is definitely the best time for scheduling and attitude. An hour sounds like a lot but most people need the better part of an hour just to get back and forth to a gym, suit up and shower. After you get into shape you will not need the half hour to cool down that I needed at first.

The "Ultimate" diet is a good one and recommended by many others; it is pretty much what I follow. I make up the lunches on the weekend to save time protein shakes for breakfast and dinner. If you really like milk, you can get low carb low fat milk for the shakes. The weight loss program works, but since you work out every day for two weeks, it is especially important to avoid exercises that can cause pain or injury.
