We all want ways to incorporate the gym into our lives. It doesn’t matter if you prefer low-impact routines that are easily repeated or full-body workouts with brief time limits, the right workout DVD can make all the difference.
Denise Austin’s DVD offers the 12-minute routine that concentrates on various body parts each day. Each segment is designed to be performed separately or in sequence for an all-body workout. It’s a great choice for those who are beginning to start the fitness routine, or for people who are already active but want to improve their endurance and strength.
The trainer who made her name known on NBC’s The Biggest Loser makes a bold promise: “Eliminate fat.” She’s not lying. This three-DVD set, which includes two workouts lasting 10 minutes that will make you sweat. Do not worry if it’s not the right level for your needs. Each session offers easier alternatives for those who aren’t able to perform more difficult moves.
Jane Fonda, 74, might be a bit displeasing due to her cheesy style of music or headband that resembles Richard Simmons. But her workouts are very effective. She follows the same movements that she has used in her best-selling workouts, such as upper and lower body isometric exercises as well as movements with hand weights–and she shows the correct form throughout.
One of the only negative aspects of this DVD is that a recent study by a University of Washington professor found that its model models were a way to highlight the flaws in their bodies, with a majority of women’s bodies being covered up. The good news is that this workout DVD also comes with a healthy eating 30 day plan and self-reflection worksheets, giving you the motivation that you require to maintain your fitness routine.
