Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this DVD because I wanted something very low-key to get back into exercising. I have issues with migraines and fatigue and I can't stand getting overheated, so I wanted a program that was more about building flexibility and strength, rather than jumping around while some hyperactive, bony person shrieks at you. I wanted an exercise DVD that I wouldn't dread. I really love this DVD. There are two workouts, one that is easier and shorter, and one that includes cardio and weights. The longer workout is about 30 minutes. Both include warm up and cool down sessions as well as a meditation session at the end. The production values are pretty low budget but everything, including the music, is perfectly adequate as far as I'm concerned. The instructor, David Stamps, could not be better. He is pleasant, clear, and encouraging. His voice is soothing and his explanations are easy to understand. There is absolutely no inane chit chat a la Leslie Sansone. The meditation session is so relaxing that more than once, I have fallen asleep before the end of it (I am on my bed, after all)!
This DVD is marketed as being for people who are bedridden and/or physically challenged. I'm not an authority on those issues so I don't know how suitable it would be for people with different physical issues. I do think this DVD could be good for people who haven't exercised in a long time, or who have a lot of weight to lose and need to start off slowly, or actually anyone who wants a low-key strength-building workout that you can do on your own bed. I would recommend that you get a bed rest, the kind of pillow with arms for sitting up in bed, so that you have enough support for your back.
I really like this workout and I plan on getting the chair aerobics DVDs with this same instructor.
