5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Workout I'll Swear By, March 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: 20 Minute Workout (Special Edition) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The 20 minute workout with Bess Motta is phenomenal!

I have been doing the 20 minute workout since I was five years old, and sixteen years later this tape still challenges me and makes me sweat! This sounds cliché, but I have never found a workout (that was televised) that would give me the type of results in such a limited time. Forget the leg warmers and the big hair, if you are interested in getting fit this is the tape. Whether or not you are extremely over weight or a fitness enthusiast, the moves are designed so that you can do what you feel comfortable with.

After gaining some weight (not using the video for a while), my friends immediately noticed after a summer of using the workout how many inches I had lost.

Ron Harris has outdone himself by placing beautiful and inspiring women on a workout tape with explicit instructions and uptempo music for maximum results.

Yes, I WISH that this show series would come back on DVD. I started doing the 20 Minute Workout while I was in medical school one summer. I would have to get up for the 5:30AM show - and I tell you, NOTHING since this show has had me up ROUTINELY at 5:20AM getting aerobics, abdominal work and toning exercises. I'm NOT an aerobics junkie and I found Fonda's tapes to be boring. This show is FUN! The music is uplifting, not LOUD and keeps you going. The exercises FLOW from one to another. And the 20 Minutes flies by fast.

Using this program, I was finally able to slim my waist enough to get into a pair of Vanderbilt white cotton pant. Nothing chizeled my waist like this workout. I have found myself thinking of the music often, and know some of the routines by heart. I've misplaced this copy, which is why I'm getting another.

Do yourself a favor, BUY ALL of the 20 Minute Workout series you can. You'll love 'em.

By the way, this program can EASILY be adjusted to low impact. Get started and watch the pounds melt away.

Buy and USE this tape once - and you'll know what the craze was all about.

The 20 Minute Workout will motivate and energize you into the best shape of your life. You'll think about doing it when you're not doing it, and you'll DO this workout.

And this workout will do wonders for you.

Hey I USED TO get up at 5:20AM DAILY for the 5:30AM show - nothing else got me into that habit. And the shape I got in - well let's say that nothing else got me to 38-26-36. Boy do I long for THOSE measurements. That's why I'm buying another copy.

If you have problems with motivation, just plug in ole Bess (yes, she's the one that got wacked on the first Terminator). The routines are EASY to learn, fun and they WORK. I was a student when this show came on and VCR's weren't around, so the closest I can get to the original series are these videos.

Do yourself a favor, get one right away...and don't lend it out. It probably won't come back.

Get ready to be in the best shape of your life...the 20 Minute Way.
