Although this video is titled New Super Stomachs, it's actually a reissue of a 1993 video with the same title, set on a beach in the Florida Keys. "A rock-hard tummy in just 6 weeks!" promises the back cover. Despite the hyperbole (no abdominal workout can promise that unless you've got abs of stone to begin with), this 30-minute workout does present a variety of traditional abdominal- and back-strengthening exercises, including some that will challenge intermediate exercisers. Austin sensibly stresses quality over quantity, emphasizing alignment and the value of doing a few exercises in excellent form, rather than dozens in poor form. Before starting the workout, she teaches alignment tips so that you're doing the exercises consciously and correctly. The abdominal floor work runs about 15 minutes, followed by back exercises, standing isolations, and stretches. --Joan Price

3.0 out of 5 stars Older Version Was Better, December 21, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Denise Austin - New Super Stomachs [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The new video helped me earn some improvement on my abs, but I would recommend the old Super Stomachs over the new one. Like most women out there, I stay very busy so it's hard for me to find lots of time to exercise. This video is longer than the old one so it was easier for me to find time to do the older version. In my opinion, there just weren't that many new techniques introduced in this video.
