DVD : The Biggest Winner - How to Win by Losing: The Complete Body Workout (5-Disc DVD Set: Shape Up - Front, Shape Up - Back, Cardio Kickbox, Maximize - Full Frontal, Maximize - Back in Action) |
- The 6-week plan information is misleadingThe workouts are pretty good, but accessing the "6-week bikini workout" and other special features requires a DVDROM to access. It is not an insert like most workout DVDs. All in all, it was enjoyable for a great price.

- One of The Best DVD's Out ThereI've only gotten through the first 2 DVD's, Shape up Front & Back, but I can tell you this is how a trainer will work you out at a real gym. With regard to another buyer who commented that she gave this DVD series a 4 instead of a 5 due to the lack of instructions...well, if you read the DVD (it was either on the packaging or within the DVD words scrolling) to review the ENTIRE DVD before doing any of the exercises.
First of all, I do that with every DVD I use because how else can I record what I'm doing if I don't write it down. Yes, I actually write down everything that's done and log it in my computer system so every time I do it, I'm not retyping but just seleting the workout so I know what it consisted of.
Anyway, it's a very intense set of DVD's and it's not for the beginner. I also bought one of her other DVD's (30-Day Shred) but haven't use it yet as I bought them around the same time. There are good reviews on this one too but you only get 3 separate workouts which are supposed to be progressive. The reviewers pretty much tell you to alternate all three levels anyway so your workout won't get boring...just do the beginners versions on the ones that are difficult. Sounds like a great idea to me. I wouldln't have waited to progress anyway simply because I like to keep it interesting.
Remember, weight bearing exercises are extremely good for your joints and bones...i know I have chondromalacia patella...and if i can do them and feel MUCH better afterwards that's saying something.
Good luck to everyone using this.
(side note: i really feel like i'm on speed or something after doing these 30 minute work outs...i am not kidding.)

- She's brutal!These series of videos are brutal. I really enjoy them - if torture is my idea of fun I guess. I would really recommend them to anyone, just not a beginner.

- Intense workouts even for athletesI've owned these videos for about 3 months and I use them twice a week.
First my health background. I've been physically active since high school (33 years old now) with baseball/basketball/martial arts and have always been lean. Three times a week, I hit the gym with medium weights and treadmill/elliptical so my heart rate is usually between 60-70 at rest. While I'm not a total fitness buff, I'm pretty healthy.
Anyways, I still sweat and feel these workouts the next day. For those that say that they barely break a sweat or aren't challenged by this, YOU are not pushing yourself hard enough. You need to follow her technique, but push harder if it seems too easy. Her exercises are wonderful so you need to pick it up then. I don't believe that you can't sweat by doing these workouts unless you're just half-assing it.

- Wow!! What a workout!!This workout is amazing. I have been using this to workout for about a week now and I can really feel and see the difference already. It is not for the faint at heart. It will get you breathing heavy and wanting to stop, but if you stay at it, you will definitely get great results.
