Tamilee Does it Again!, January 20, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Quick Toning: Abs & Buns of Steel (DVD)
Maybe I'm biased because I own most of the "Buns, Arms, Abs, Legs, etc. of Steel" videos and then got hooked on the "I Want that Body" workout but the "Quick Toning - Abs & Buns of Steel" is another hit. There are three 10 minute abs workouts that include a decent 4 minute warm up and a quick 3 minute cool down for a total 17 minute workout. This is great for someone like me who doesn't have a lot of time for a workout but needs results. I've been working out for most of my life and couldn't believe the burn that I felt from some of the new ab moves. This is a great way to keep those muscles challenged. The bun workout is the same format as the abs and has equally wonderful warm ups, excersizes and cool downs. One other nice quality of this video is that the video goes almost immediately from the FBI warning to the menu. No long introduction that shows all of the sponsors' logos. I did at least one section of this video a day and ate a healty diet and I noticed a difference.

Worth the purchase...., February 19, 2004
This review is from: Quick Toning: Abs & Buns of Steel (DVD)
Tamilee Webb is very focused throughout this workout. There are 3 ab exercises and 3 bun exercises. Different workouts with maximum results. If you are a fan of her I Want That Body DVD, which is top notch for ab and arm workouts, you will not be disappointed. She reiterates about the importance of taking care of your body, performing cardio exercises and addressing the other parts of your body that is not addressed in this DVD. If you are looking for cardio, get Billy Blanks, this is not a cardio workout. It is a focused workout for specific muscle groups, listed above. Finally, there are plenty of bogus DVD workouts on the market, this is not one of them.

The Secret to a Firmer Belly & Butt, May 16, 2005
This review is from: Quick Toning: Abs & Buns of Steel (DVD)
I really like this exercise video for the reason that all my criteria are met:
1) Abs feel stronger after using 3x/wk
2) Bun workout (simply a side effect of the better Abs video) is a good workout, although I haven't done buns #3 because it requires a step
3) short; 4 minute warm up, 15 minutes total
4) footprint used in living room is small
5) music does not irritate husband (we live in a one-bedroom apt)
6) moves and exercises are easy to follow (I cannot follow a routine for the life of me)
7) Instructor is engaging
Downside: Tamilee's 80s hairstyle and dress. There are times when I'd prefer not getting a glimpse of her crotch. Sometimes the camera focused on one spot so it is hard to follow the moves. I wish she would talk more about making the workout more or less intense, and how to do variations.
Rating: 4 stars because I think this very good, but there is room for improvement
Bottom Line: A great video to guide you to a firmer belly and butt.
