Best Prevention DVD, July 13, 2007
This review is from: Prevention Fitness Systems - Fight Cellulite Fast! (DVD)
I own a few of the Prevention Fitness System DVDs and this is by far the best. The cardio is great. I am a intermediate/advanced exerciser and it gets my heart rate up. At 40 minutes it is a good length. The toning is only 15 minutes or so but gets the legs and butt to burn a bit. I would get this for the cardio. You don't need too much room axcept in the first interval, but you can always modify. As always Chris is great with queuing and gives you time to get used to the move before adding on. She is one of the least annoying fitness instructors out there.

One of the better, June 18, 2007
This review is from: Prevention Fitness Systems - Fight Cellulite Fast! (DVD)
This is one of the better fitness DVD's I have purchased. Consistant, upbeat, the rarity of actually working the left and the right evenly, (most videos don't from the ones I have purchased in the past.) Good for all levels, acutally points out on more than one occasion the person doing the lower impact and lower intensity moves. Not for the weak kneed. Really gets the heart rate going, like the fact that it is done in interval style, so you actually can get the fat burning effect. Wide variety of movements, not just your squats and lunges. Chris isn't overly exuberant, overly chipper, nor is her personality cold. She does try to stay informative, encouraging and doesn't make false promises during the workout. What kept me from giving it a 5, Chris seems to be out of breath already during the warmup, some of her chit-chat can be annoying, (but there is not one tape out there whose instructor doesn't hit a nerve on some days,) really wish the stretches were held longer during the cool down. Will definately look into some of the other ones she has out.

Excellent Cardio and Toning DVD!, May 11, 2007
This review is from: Prevention Fitness Systems - Fight Cellulite Fast! (DVD)
I really like Chris Freytag. She is an excellent instructor. This latest DVD from Prevention has an excellent cardio section divided into 6 segments, each increasing in intensity. Of course, you can always continue with the low-impact option. The moves are effective and interesting. There is also a 15 minute total-body toning segment that you can do on a separate day or immediately after the cardio to make a 60ish minute workout. I have done it both ways. My muscles are still reminding me that they are there, if you know what I mean. This DVD is an excellent investment of your exercise time!
