This is the first DVD that I have bought regarding stability ball workouts. It is a great workout. I like how the DVD is broken down into 3 segments upper,lower and abdominals. You can select only one workout to do or all three. The 10 minute countdown timer that is visible on the screen for each workout segment is a great feature. There is also someone on the DVD that demonstrates a modified workout at the same time the regular workout is being done.

I have about 20 workout DVD's, and I use this one EVERY SINGLE DAY. Best investment ever, and it really works! After about two weeks of use I noticed a lot change. Real fun and nice if you don't have a lot of time because you can do 10,20 or 30 minutes. I would highly recommend it!

This workout takes only 30 minutes but concentrates on all the essential areas for effective result. The workout uses the stability ball and hand weights. Doing exercise on a stability ball is very effective because you need to balance and concentrate; otherwise, you'd roll all over your mat! It's great for your back, abs, and your upper body. I use this DVD when I don't have the time but want to squeeze in some exercise. Highly recommended for people on the go, including men!

This is a great workout DVD if, like me, you're very out of shape, and especially if you have back problems. There are several things that I also particularly like about this DVD:

1.) the countdown clock. It helps keep me motivated if I can tell myself I only have X minutes left to go. I honestly wish all workout DVD's had this feature because it really does make a difference.
2.) 3 separate exercises from which you can do 1, 2, or all 3. Each section does get your heart rate up, but really works the areas that section is targeted on.
3.) the instruction is concise, not cheerleader-y, and there are modifications for those who need them.
4.) the pace of the exercises is not slow, but it's not so fast that you struggling to keep up either.
5.) no cardio. I know some will see this as a detriment, but I prefer to take my dogs for a brisk walk than do cardio from a DVD.

I've been alternating between this and Element: Ballet Conditioning for about 6 weeks and I've seen a definite improvement.

Nice tape. Effective and short. Practiced regularly it will absolutely improve your tone and and build muscle. If you already have toned abs and stabilizers it will help you be accountable by "just doing 10 minutes every day."

This DVD provides additional workout for the stability ball. I wanted different programs so that I'm not doing the same exercises over and over. Variety also keeps one from becoming bored. I like the weights that can be used to help tone muscles. My one complaint is that the warm-up segment could be shown slower and in steps as I'm having a problem getting the coordination down. Other than that I'm pleased with this purchase.

I really like that the video is divided into 3 10 minute sections so if you are running short with time you can just pick the area you most need to focus on.

I have just had 2 children in the past year and have a very bad back. This is perfect for me! I already had a ball that I had used as a birth ball and figured I'd give this a try. It is challenging enough that I couldn't get through even one of the 10 minute segments at first! I am looking forward to toning up with this dvd.

I ordered the product over a month ago and NEVER received it. I contacted the seller who did not contact me back. Don't lose your money ordering from this seller. I only gave it one star because I had to, I'd give it none if I could.
