5.0 out of 5 stars gilad is the money!, May 9, 2000

This review is from: Gilad Step Aerobics - On the Beach at Waikiki [VHS] (VHS Tape)

i am not a big fan of home exercise tapes. the instructors tend to be a bit cheesy. at times gilad makes me laugh but he keeps me motivated throughout the entire video. this is a great workout. the abs are a huge bonus. the beat of the music makes it really easy to keep in step, although some of the jingles can stay with you for a few days and keep you up at night sometimes. the moves used on the step really get your heart going, are pretty easy to get down, and makes you feel like you are really working. i can really tell a difference in my calves, stomach, and arms. there are no weights involved but i think the constant involvement and extra movements of your arms throughout the workout help to build muscle and tone them. i enjoy working out with this video, and dare i say, actually have fun doing it. i was even able to tell a difference within the first week and i really need that immediate gratifaction to keep motivated. i am now a huge gilad fan and just placed an order for another one of his tapes. i think he is the one i will stick with.

3.0 out of 5 stars For beginning steppers only, April 10, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Gilad Step Aerobics - On the Beach at Waikiki [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video is an excellent introduction to step aerobics. If, however, you are hoping to supplement an established exercise schedule with this video, keep shopping! This is not a challenging workout for the experienced stepper. There really is no choreography; the routine consists mainly of repeating the same step 4-8x and the pace is not fast at all. Gilad also doesn't offer any suggestions for "power" alternatives and if you're used to aerobic instructor jargon, you may find Gilad confusing since he doesn't cue steps by their typical names. He tends to describe the step rather than just say "Knee lift" or "V-step", etc. Also, Gilad is on TV Sat. and Sun. mornings.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT Step Workout Tape, August 7, 2001

This review is from: Gilad Step Aerobics - On the Beach at Waikiki [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have five workout tapes and this is my favorite. First, I've been working out for years, yet it left me soaking wet in sweat. (Beginners can lower the step or reduce the movements.) Second, it's got a warmup, 40 minutes of aerobics, abs and a stretch and cool down. Third, the music is not intrusive...just enough to keep a beat. Finally, Gilad is a great leader, easy to follow, and his voice is not irritating. I always get a big smile when he yells out, "You got da moves!"
