DVD Reviews of Women's Health: Train for Your Body Type

DVD Review: not a favorite
Summary: 2 Stars

It's been a while since I used this DVD. I purchased two others at the same time, and this one has just collected dust. If I recall, I did not find it to be "low impact" friendly.

DVD Review: One of my absolute favorite workout DVDS
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been using this DVD for about 4 months now and I still get a good workout from it. It's one of my more intense workout DVDs and I always feel so invigorated and limber upon completing it. I really love it and I can't recommend it highly enough. You will definitely get an excellent workout. I like the fact that there are so many options to choose from. You could just do a warm-up, the cardio and then cool down (which is about 30 minutes) or you could do the "Amp it Up" section (adds about 5 minutes) and really amp up your workout. Either way, you will be breathing hard and sweating. Just a warning: there is definitely a lot of jumping so if you have weak knees, you might want to stick with the low-impact modifications (there are advanced modifications too if you feel like challenging yourself). Jessica Smith cues wonderfully and you can tell she is well trained. She is upbeat but not over the top. She is encouraging but not patronizing. She includes moves that I have not seen in any other workout DVD (at least not those in my collection) and because I love yoga, the Amp it Up PowerFlow section (a short but strong combination of power yoga and pilates moves) seals the deal for me.

Overall, it's a creative and fun workout. Definitely 5 stars.

DVD Review: Buy this for the cardio alone!
Summary: 5 Stars

I love all of the Women's Health workouts (I own them all), but this one is fantastic. You're supposed to do the various different segments on different days to train for certain body types, but I usually do all the segments at once, because they are a fantastic total body workout when done together. Every segment impressed me, and was obviously designed to be as effective as possible. You will need some light weights (2-5 pounds) and a mat for this workout.

The good:

--The cardio segment (about 22 minutes) is FABULOUS! It's done in 4 "rounds" (circuits, really), and you do each circuit twice. The exercises in each round are varied in intensity. Inbetween each exercise you are jogging, so you are constantly keeping your heart rate up. This is one of the few cardio segments from a magazine workout that I have that truly gets my heart rate up to 70-80% of maximum and keeps it in that range the entire time.
--The toning segments (upper body, lower body, and abs) are all great, too--very effective moves.
--All the moves are very simple and require little coordination to follow them; however they are very effective!
--High and low impact options/modifications are shown for each exercise.

Needs improvement:

--I wished the toning segments could have been a little longer (they run about 11-12 minutes each)
--Jessica Smith is a good instructor, but is a little "wooden."

The good outweighs the bad here; This is an excellently designed workout that a beginner (using modifications) or an advanced exerciser would enjoy. It is challenging, and it will push you (especially the cardio!). A great buy for your money!

DVD Review: Pretty Good
Summary: 4 Stars

The cardio is intense...but good. All of the segments are good. My only wish is that they included workouts for more body types...they have 3...I do believe there needs to be a bit more explanation and variety. I didn't see a body type that accurately described me...I am somewhere between 2 of them (my only gripe).

DVD Review: It's alright
Summary: 3 Stars

The video is alright. It's not what I expected. Maybe because I'm used to more upbeat instructors. I did the workout yesterday and had to follow it up with another video because I didn't feel like I got a workout.
