Great beginning workout video , November, 30, 2008

I bought this dvd at 4 weeks (I know, very early!) and have been using it for the last 6 weeks, along with her sister's, vol. 2 and Pilates during Pregnancy. I have not had extreme morning sickness, but I certainly haven't been feeling like myself. Before I became pregnant I would classify myself as an intermediate in workouts, I typically do calisthenics and pilates at home on dvd. While pregnant I find I am tired and much less motivated to work out. So these videos have been great at just getting me up and moving, stretching and giving me a boost of energy. As some women mentioned, her voice is dubbed over the video, which I think works very well. There is no huffing and puffing or change in clarity. I find her accent charming and her tone soothing. The Kegel exercises are a real bonus, I'm not sure how many others focus on this, but it's something I think about as I get later into pregnancy and worry about sneezing or laughing too hard! Hope you enjoy and have a happy and healthy pregnancy.

 

challenging, yet rewarding , November, 25, 2008

I bought this based on the great reviews I read...I think they are right on. It's a challenging workout (more so than any other prenatal workout I've tried) but not so challenging that I feel discouraged. When I've missed a few days, I can definitely feel it--a good kind of sore!
I love the warmup and cool down, all the stretching and emphasis on breathing does wonders for my aching back!
