Hoping it will cure my thigh jiggle

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 14, 2003

Verified Purchase

I purchased this video in June 2002, and cause of various reasons never stuck to it, I figured that being overweight there was no way I'd see results as good as was shown in the photos on the video so I figured why try?
But now I decided that I will do it every other day (and a short aerobics video days I don't do Callanetics if I have time) and see what results I can get at 10 hours (where it says you will look ten years younger) and 19 hours (like the example of her student Jean who looked better in 19 hours). If I don't miss any days November 15 will be when my 19th hour will be finished, I will update my review then.
I have been having some trouble trying to use the stuff in my dorm room, like I use my bed for hips and behind cause it is high, but not a hard surface like a bar, and my chair is not very sturdy for the leg stuff, but I feel as if I keep trying I can figure out a way to make it work. I have been having a hard time relaxing, and feel when I do I can get more from the exercises. But I do feel it very much, the ripple in the stomach is like nothing I have ever felt before.
For those of you who had flabby legs, not big, I mean JIGGLAY and FLABAY did they improve with Callanetics or did you diet and do lots of aerobics as well?
Overall I would suggest giving it a try =)

If you want to change your life, buy this video

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 28, 2003

After my first year of college life, I was very distraught to find that I had gained quite a bit of weight, and I was getting very flabby. I've never been a thin person, but this really prompted me to take action. I tried numerous "fad" workouts. I borrowed books from the library and bought those expensive exercise tapes and poured over health magazines. Then a co-worker (who has lost 60+ pounds with this video) told me about Callanetics. I figured I had nothing to lose, so I bought it and began the "Callanetics experience." It was one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. Since May, I have lost 32 pounds, and went from a size 12 to 6. At 5'9" and 134 pounds, I finally have the body I always dreamed of but had previously thought was impossible to achieve. Thanks to this amazing workout, I have a new life-- more self-esteem and confidence than I've ever experienced, and a great body. I've suffered from acute back problems for a long time, too, and I feel so much more relaxed and flexible and free of tension as a result of doing this video three times a week. Obviously, this workout works unbelievably fast. The best part is, it's something that I won't get tired of and will keep me slim and feeling good for the rest of my life. Thank you Callan!!!!

LOVE this video - Callan Pinkney was way ahead of the pack. 10 years / 10 hours / 20 years ago!
So Happy to find this again. Used it years ago - in a word: RESULTS!
In a sentence - using this video years ago gave me a sense of being in my body comfortably profoundly - for what I remember as the first time.
More: This was made before the word "core" was used much (as far as I know) - the experience of finding my core through this workout was very freeing.
All my parts were communicating and working as a unit. My pelvis knew where it belonged - creating comfort and eliminating a subtle sense of searching for comfort & balance.

Happy to get back to a great workout. I will start slowly! as I did years ago, doing only a few of each for the first few days - not pushing through discomfort - I found my body craved more & worked up quickly to the recommended reps.

I also had the morning/evening Callanetics video - however I like this one much more!

Now to find a bar!

Update: Bought a used Fluidity Bar so that might work in conjunction with Callenetics, however I live in a tiny space, that leads to resistance to getting out a piece of equipment. Using a chair has always been my best bet.

Get a rocking body and never move more than 1/4 inch

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 29, 2007

I tried this tape 20 years ago and have purchased at least 8 over the years. I keep LOANING them out and never get them back so I have to keep buying more. I have now been without a tape for 2 years and it is time to buy another one.

I am the owner of a web development firm in Florida, WorldWebCommunication.com and never get a chance to do any exercises as I am too busy keeping clients happy. My health was going down and my back was killing me. The last time I did this exercise I dropped 4 inches from my waist and never worked up a sweat. I did not diet but used the tape daily for 6 weeks. At the time I worked at Nissan on the assembly line. Everyone kept saying have you lost weight you look different. I set up a group of us to work out everyday and EVERYONE lost inches. These exercises will open your eyes up to a new way of looking at your own body.

I am now in my 50's and am excited to get back to using this tape ( after I buy yet another one since I did not get back the one I loaned out - you know who you are). Thank you Margaret Pinckney.

These will help you strengthen and stretch

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 9, 2003

I just received this tape last week and have done the workout 3 times now. I already have been trying to watch what I eat and do the Leslie Sansone Walk away the pounds with weighted balls tapes. Just yesterday my boyfriend said my legs look like they are more toned, but I am not sure if it is completely from this tape or a combination of all that I am doing.
There are some exercises on this tape that will DEFINITELY help you gain strength in your legs. I also believe that this will help you improve your flexibility because of all of the stretching exercises included in this.
I do recommend keeping your vcr remote close by so that you can fast forward through several descriptions and pictures after you understand how to complete the exercise. But if you are looking for a strengthening and stretching tape to add to your exercise regimen I recommend Callanetics.

Back & other pain sufferers

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 30, 2022

Im a 55 ur old women who got this book simply to remind me of the actual routine which I used to do years ago. Note: If you’ve not done Callanetics before, personally, I’d suggest getting a visual workout because you need to do them properly & a visual guide will teach you how. Don’t be fooled they’re not easy. Also do get the original dvd with ‘callan pickney’ herself showing the exercises. They’re a bit funny old hat like (80s) but in my opinion her way is the best way. She did create the exercises after suffering her entire life with back & other physical problems TBF. I’ve also suffered many years with a back strain injury at 18yrs old & from then on I’ve been restricted & unable to do many exercise classes as a result. Even had to uses crutches in more recent years. If only occasionally, because of severe back spasms. I discovered this exercise in my 20s & my body thanked me for it. The results on my all around body strength & posture & my figure where incredibly. Joy.. an exercise that I could do with grand results. Naturally the most important thing to me at that age, was my figure & it really was great all over. Looking back & More importantly, I didn’t have problems with my back. With 3hrs a week & no problem for several years after stopping the exercises in fact. Now 30 years on…no exercises since, my back hips neck & shoulders are stiff & I walk awkwardly again. I struggle to get up off my sofa too. My body feels old & surly will get worst over time. So I’ve purchased the book to begin theses exercises again. Not a care theses day for my figure but to ez the pains. Even after my first, very very slow attempt, I felt a great stretched feeling all over. The joy. That same feeling I felt years ago. It’s reminded me why I loved this experience so much. In this book there’s other exercises in the content that I’ve not seen before. But I’ve missed these out. (Wow it’s hard enough & those others look real tuff) so I’ll pass for now thanks. Like I said, I used to do this workout using an actual ‘video’ (yes that long ago) & used this book to remind me of the routine. Having done these exercises many times I can remember the correct position & precise teeny movements required. This is an old workout & position + mini movements really are not easy. Perhaps here the saying”they don’t make em like they used to” can be applied to this workout. It amazed me in the past how well it works & the results blew me away. Don’t worry if you can’t do all the moves or all the repetitions. I can’t do them all yet. Ive done only what I can manage. That’s the beauty of this routine ie: do it at ur own pace. I know I’ll get stronger in time & it will become easier. So again a visual platform of these exercises is my advice. Once you’ve mastered the exact positions & the
‘tinker bell’ movements , you won’t need to use any prompts. So it doesn’t matter that the original is old or funny. You’ll be able to do them with tv radio or whatever on & the results are so amazing in every way, it will inspire you, like me, to carry on. As I’ve said I’m doing this because if fed up with back neck hip & shoulder pains & the older I get the tighter everything feels. Yet 3 times now, I’ve done this & not managed all repetitions I may add. Not even close in fact Yet I can honestly say, I feel an improvement all over💪 Great right.💪For me that’s is enough to make me carry on 😊 if ur young u will get the greatest figure if u do the exercises correctly. I did. But for me right now… here’s to the easing of my pain & feeling strong again 🤞

Not original

First let me say I had the original of this book and it has now gone missing, probably in a safe place that will turn up sometime. So, i bought this replacement and although the front and back cover are the same, the inside is just photo copies. Cant believe why this should happen, but its very professionaly done. I did think about returning and trying another seller but perhaps the same thing will happen again, so decided to keep it as its a great book.

Callanetics is good

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 22, 2019

I discovered Callanetics in my teens, I am almost forty now. I know it provides with quick results and shapes you up really quickly.
I remember I had this book for the first from the library and it was hard cover with great photos.
This is a really bad reprint and it put me off looking at it or following the exercises.
I would not recommend it. Maybe hardcover is in a better print.

Deceptively effective, you wouldn't think such small movements would be so hard

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 2, 2018

Had this book many years ago, and decided I needed to get some form of exercise. I have bad knees so can't do everything so have to be selective. Despite working via very small movements it's exhausting and you can definitely feel it. If strenuous exercise is not your thing, give it a go
