 Review March 12, 2007
Crystal G. Owens (Corbin, KY)
This is another wonderful Denise Austin workout. I began doing this Pilates DVD over four years ago and still do it. When I do this DVD three times per week, I can really see a difference in the length and tone of my body. My posture is better. I just look overall lean and fit. It is always challenging. She is a great instructor and that really makes this DVD worthwhile. The only downfall to this DVD is that it is a little long so sometimes I avoid doing it because of that but when I do it, I am always glad I did. A lot of the moves I incorporate into my everyday life when I just want to stretch. It is great.

I started using this book in June 2004. I am 41 years of age and wanted to tone by body. I have followed her workouts in this book primarily using the 10 minute routines for upper body, abs, lower body, back, ball and resistance bands. My goal primarily was to one my body. I have dropped a full clothing size and lost 10lbs. I tell everyone I can about this book and the philosophy of exercise. I consider myself a very busy person, I am a mother, I work full time, but every weekday morning I find 10 minutes to do my exercises and it has clearly paid off for me. These results come from exercise. I don't believe in fad diets and have continued to eat food in moderation and control portion size, but I eat what I want. If toning up is important to you, invest the money and the time you will not be disappointed.

This book is a useful supplement to your existing health and
exercise regimen. The focus is concentration, breathing techniques and control. The authors provide pictorial depictions
of abs exercises, HIP opening routines, the buttocks stretch,
warm-ups, the ABS stretch, the leg lift roll-up and leg stretches. This book will help you to develop a comprehensive program in a short period of time. It is worth the money if you are serious about crafting a considerable exercise program as part of the daily routine.
 Pilates for Advanced Everybodies March 30, 2004

I tried this Pilates tape that is supposedly for everybody. Denise is as full of sunshine as she alwasy ever. It gets irritating fast when you realize that you can't begin to do half the stuff she is talking about. I have done Pilates before so I know that Denise is doing advanced positions that could cause beginners to injure themselves. She doesn't even give alternate or adjustment poses too often.
If you are advanced don't get this Pilates tape you can do better. If you are a beginner, don't get this tape unless you want to hurt yourself.
GREAT PICTURES AND FABULOUS BOOK! February 27, 2004

This book has excellent pictures and is a great book. I have the video tape, Pilates for Every Body which is fantastic, and is a great workout. I was browsing through the book section, and looked through this book. I found the instructions to be thorough and complete. As always Denise has another winner!
