5.0 out of 5 stars Love it! Love it! Love it!, July 14, 2000

This review is from: 8 Minute Abs With 8 Minute Arms [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have always been self-conscious of my abs, always wanting them to be more defined, tighter, looking better. I have an AbsWork machine and a Body Blade and have been using those for 3+ years now. I would procrastinate doing those workouts, so I decided to give this video a try (mainly for the price), and I love it! It is quick, to the point and YOU FEEL IT BURN! The eight minutes go by quick and after two weeks my husband and I both notice a difference. I try to work out at least five times a week and it does not matter how much I use this video, I feel the burn! I recommend this to anyone who wants fast results and a great routine at that! Jaime is great at keeping you motivated and reminding you of the correct way to do the exercises. The bonus Arms are a plus and I use the soup cans! Better than going to the gym! My daughter (3 years old) even likes to do the workouts with me!

This review is from: 8 Minute Abs With 8 Minute Arms [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I'm a 53 year old woman who enjoys staying fit. Back in my younger days I loved to do aerobics, but the impact just became too hard for my joints. I have been exercise walking for about 16 years now. Recently I have wanted to begin some sort of exercising, but just didn't know what. I have lower back problems and I sure didn't want to aggravate that problem. I found that this tape is just the answer. It definitely gives you a workout, making your abs really burn. Also,the trainer is careful to stress how to take care of your back while doing the exercises. I think it's great! The arms portions is an added bonus. Only after you do the tape will you realize how much you need these exercises. Now, I am thinking about purchasing the 8 minute buns video.

This review is from: 8 Minute Abs With 8 Minute Arms [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Work out videos looked like a waste of money to me, but I wanted to learn the basics of a good abdominal workout. I only wish that I had done this sooner. The tape gives clear instructions and excellent views of all the excercises. As a novice to crunches, this helped a lot. After a week of using this tape I was able to extend the workout and mix it with the upper body workout without the use of the tape. The routine produced plainly visible results within 2 weeks. The greatest result is the way it changes your posture. If you work at a desk, you'll never believe the difference it makes. Be aware: If you haven't done these kinds of excercises before, you're likely to tire out your neck before your abs the first few times, but this changes quickly.
