5.0 out of 5 stars It works!, November 2, 1999
By Erik Stensland (Estes Park, Colorado) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If I had read that this workout got rid of cellulite, thinned out the legs and made you feel great, I would have had trouble believing it. But now that I have done this workout for 3 months, I would say exactly that. It really does work! But beware - it's not for the beginner or faint-hearted (or should I say faint-"limbed"). It can be grueling in places.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, effective, timeless, September 26, 2000
By Erica K Hess (Austin, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This is the best video I've ever used. The moves are easy to follow, but they certainly don't feel easy. If you want a simple but effective workout, look no further than the original Buns of Steel. Yes, it was made in 1987 and the clothes are terrible. Who cares? This doesn't affect your workout, and in my opinion it adds to the fun! Others have complained about the music, but the beats really help you keep up the pace. Greg Smithey is a wonderful instructor -- he explains the moves well and adds a touch of humor. If you want fast results, buy this video and do it a few times a week. Don't feel discouraged if you can't do all of the reps right away. Just do what you can and it will get easier.

4.0 out of 5 stars Its a really dated video, but the workout is great, January 1, 2001
This workout was done way back in 1987 and it looks like it. The music is really bad and the clothing is even worse. I think that there was a guy with jheri curls in there! Anyway, even though the video is dated, the workout is excellent. Beginners probably will have a hard time completing the video, but it gets a bit easier when you do it on a consistent basis. I could not even lift my legs the first time that I did this workout. Nowadays, the workout is still very intense, but it is not as intense as the first time that I did it.
