Summary: Is it bad to expect more for 8 minutes
Review: I feel like I am watching a late 80's/early 90's infomercial. The quality of the video is pretty bad. Perhaps I have been spoiled by other DVD's like Tamilee Web's "I Want That Body" that had me more pumped and motivated than this one. I came away from the 8 minute workouts somewhat disappointed, and definitely not as motivated to keep trying it. But that's the point isn't it? These videos should kick our butts and make us want to come back for more.
I'd recommend the Tamilee Web and Quick Fix programs over this one any day... but maybe I am expecting too much for 8 minutes.

Summary: Anyone can do these exercises!
Review: I give this DVD 5 stars because you get results! If you are a beginner or have never done routine exercises in your life then this is the DVD for you. After a few weeks you notice a difference and it did not take a tremendous amount of your time to get them done. You can also build up from this basic program with more reps or weights.

Summary: This is an awesome workout too bad I haven't received it yet
Review: I had this workout on vhs and I loved it, however I no longer have a vhs player so I tried to order it on dvd. I have NOT received it yet. The shipping servive or Jaime Brenkus is extremely slow. I would not order anything from them.

Summary: really effective and "do-able"
Review: I have been using this DVD for about a month and a half and can already notice a difference. Its hard at first and somedays it seems even harder, but overall it is something that anyone could do. I really feel good about myself and what I've accomplised already just in the short period of time I've used it!

Summary: Short, sweet & simple!
Review: I have to agree that I really like the length of the abs & arms program here. The "bonus" work-outs are :::BLECH::: except for the kickboxing one, which I love. It's a great work-out that will hopefully help me get ready for the hour-long kickboxing sessions I used to do, plus it's hilarious -- don't watch the 3 people he's got doing the routine behind him unless you want to laugh at how they all take their turns at messing up the routine or doing their kicks/punches sloppily. Maybe they left it in to show people that everyone has trouble keeping up with the instructor sometimes? Either way, I really enjoy it and and the abs/arms work-out. For the price, you can't beat this video as a "re-entry" of sorts back into the work-out world. Short, sweet & simple ... doesn't make you cringe at the thought of turning the DVD back on again the next day!

Summary: A great program to stick with every day
Review: I have used this tape everyday now for the past 2 months. I have seen results. It is a great tape to work out with, because you can go at your own pace. Also, there is a constant flow of movement. Therefore, if you need to take a break, you do less of one exercise, but don't miss out on the entire routine. My mom even started doing it with me. There are various levels that she was able to work at. Try it for yourself, you will get a lot out of these exercises. For abs each exercise is 45 seconds and for arms each is 30 seconds. Although it is a continious 8 minutes in rotation. Try it! You'll LOVE it!

Summary: I Love It!
Review: I just bought this DVD and I absolutely love it. I had been looking for video's or DVD's that would help me with my weight training at home, since I've given up on gyms. Doing weight training on my own I didn't know the proper form or in what order to do the exercises to create the most effective routine. This DVD fixed all that, 8-minutes didn't seem that long so I gave it a try and was sweating and puffing because you move from one exercise to another so quickly with no rest your heart rate stays up. I alternate this with the 8-minute buns & legs and combine them with Pilates for dummies (video) and my 30-minute treadmill walk.

I just started the routine this week but so good so far and I like it, which is a big thing for me. If your looking for a way to make exercise apart of your life without it taking over your life these tapes/DVD's are the way to go.

Summary: I LOVE IT !...
Review: I know those words are rarely used for describing a workout but it definetely needs to be said. I have been using this DVD for a little more than a month (first as a rental then bought from Amazon.com) and already I can see some results in the way my jeans fit. I actually went out today and bought myself a smaller size and they looked great. Anyway, this DVD is perfect because unlike other ab workouts this one those not hurt your back and the fact that all workouts are done in small time intervals makes it seem like your not doing any work at all. It actually helps push you to levels you thought you couldnt reach. Also the other workouts (Bodies in Motion) are great to help burn some fat. The arm workout it also helpful for definition. No more excuses ladies, this is the one to get.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great ab dvd
Review: I look forward to doing this each day. You can really feel the burn during and after the workout. It is an intense and quick workout. This is great for those people who are running on a short schedule. The instructor has a lot of energy and really knows how to keep you interested in the excersize. I have started to see results after 3 weeks of working out. My stomach is becoming more defined.
