5.0 out of 5 stars Hit the Spot Buns, January 31, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Hit the Spot: Buns [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Once again, Denise Austin provides a truly wonderful workout for one of the most problematic areas of a woman's body. Three ten-minute workouts provide effectiveness and variety. Her enthusiasm and encouragement make the workouts fun and easy to follow. I absolutely love this series, and I would recommend all of the Hit the Spot series to any woman who is on the go or doesn't like the gym experience.

This review is from: Hit the Spot: Buns [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Hit the Spot: Buns by Denise Austin is forty minutes long and is separated into three different segments. Segment 1 & 2 are not that difficult and beginners will have no problem. Segment 3 is more intense and anybody who is intermediate and will be able to keep up. Here how the segments break down. Numbers in brackets indicates how many she does.

Segment 1-Ten minutes

A chair is needed for this exercise. Denise starts off with squats and then goes to the side of the chair and start leg lifts on her left leg (22), then a knee bend leg lift (16), and finally 45 degrees leg lifts (23). On the right leg: leg lifts (28), then a knee bend leg lift (24), and finally 45 degrees leg lifts (25). After leg lifts are done, Denise does seventeen knee bends. When she is done the regular knee bends, she starts on two different sets of modified knee bends. Denise concludes Segment 1 with some knee stretches.

Segment 2-Ten minutes

A floor mat and a pillow are needed for this exercise. Denise starts lying on her back and starts the workout with 26 pelvic tilts and the switches to 28 pulses pelvic tilts and finally six slow ones. Denise then puts her right foot on her left knee and does 12 pelvic tilts using her left leg only. She switches legs and does 12 pelvic tilts on the right leg. Denise then put the pillow between the two knees and does nine pelvic tilts while squeezing the pillow at the same time. When all the pelvic times, Denise gets on her hands and knees for some 45 degrees leg lifts. She begins on the left leg first (24) and that she does straight leg lifts (14) on the same leg. She the switches sides and legs and on the right leg: 45 degrees leg lifts (25) and straight leg lifts (13). When the leg lifts are done, Denise lies on her stomach and does two chin lifts while at the same time squeezing her buttocks. She ends Segment 2 moving the butt side from side and the sitting up and stretching her arm out.

Segment 3-Ten minutes

These are all standing exercises. Denise begins Segment 3 by marching in place and then she does seventeen knee bends. After that the legs are spread apart for twenty-four more knee bends and it is back to marching in place again. She then does twenty-two alternating knee lunges. On her last lunge she does sixteen right knee dips. She then switches legs and does nineteen left knee dips and more marching in place. Denise does four alternating lunges and on her fifth one she start on the right leg and goes down and slide the leg back nine time and on the left side eight times and then more marching in place. After marching in place, she does fourteen alternating hamstring pulls and twenty-four alternating hamstring pushes. She goes on and does eight right and eleven left knees lefts. The seventeen right and sixteen leg lifts. She ends the workout with thirty pulse butts exercises, thirty-seven twist butts, twelve little butt pulses (legs together), and fourteen with legs apart.

Over all this is a good workout and if you are new to exercising, you will sweat a little. Hit the Spot: Buns by Denise Austin gets a B+.
