5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Workout Video, December 29, 2000

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

Probably the best workout video I own. The variation of exercises in the 8 minutes of each featured workout makes the time fly yet you feel the burn. When I first started, I thought how will I ever be able to do this? With determination, in 3 short weeks I wear 10 pound ankle weights to keep the resistance up. I would have never believed how fast this workout would have toned anyone up. As other reviews state, you can feel the tightness in your jeans and see the 6 pack in the tee shirt. Highly recommend!

By A Customer

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

Making time for 8 minute abs and buns is easy!! I do it almost every day. In no time at all I can feel my abs getting rock solid, and yes my jeans are already starting to look better. This is the workout for people who don't have a lot of time to work out. These exercises are safe, effective and they are fun!

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

I hate to exercise, but since the alternative is to look like a pre-Subway Jared I tend to do so in fits and starts. The 8 Minute series has been a staple in my on-again, off-again exercise repetoire. Not only do I find these videos tolerable for everyday use because of their quick, efficient moves, but thanks to Jamie's cheery exhortations to "firm up, guys!" and the goofy synthesizer music looping endlessly in the background, they're even sort of entertaining in a spooky, ultra-camp way.

I first bought the Abs and Buns set about 5 years ago and I'm purchasing the same set again today. I've worn my original Abs video out from overuse, and I gave Buns to a friend who needed to firm up before her wedding. As Jamie says, "they work!" After 2 weeks of just-about-daily use, my mush-gut becomes noticeably firmer and my pants fit better. Even for a lazybones like me, it's easy to stay motivated to do these exercises day after day because they take so little time and the results come pretty quickly.

If you're like me, you'll experience a little soreness and may not be able to do all the reps the first couple of times you try these exercises. However, if you stick with it they become very easy, as well as easy to fit into your daily routine.

Also, for the price, it's hard to go wrong here. Ten bucks is a small price to pay for muscle tone and a healthy dose of motivation (not to mention the groovy synthesizer tunes)!
