Summary: GREAT WORKOUT
Comment: EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. I M GLAD I DIDN'T LISTEN TO THE BAD REVIEWS.
GREAT ROUTINE GREAT INSTRUCTIONS EASY TO FOLLOW DON'T GET ME WRONG NOT SO EASY TO DO BUT THAT'S WHAT WAS I LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO WORK ON SO I CAN PROGRESS MORE INSTEAD OF USING MOST COMMON ROUTINES. I WISH THOUGH SHE WOULD SHOW HOW I CAN BUILD UP STRENGTH OR IN OTHER WORDS MODIFY UNTIL I BUILD STRENGTH FOR SOME OF ROLL UPS CUZ THAT'S WHERE I HAVE TROUBLE MOST.

Summary: Not my pick on a good pilates workout
Comment: I would not recommend this to a beginner or anyone else...unless you have done pilates and know the exact form.

The Rapid Results Pilates video is comprised of 5 sections:

1. Super toned buns and thighs
2. Arms and shoulder shaper
3. Waist slimmer
4. Total body blast
5. Slim and sleek stretch

Seeming like an aerobics video performed horizontally on a mat, there was no talk of pilates principles or breathing. A few exercises were too advanced to not include instruction on alignment - which could result in injury for the newcomer.

The second section uses light weights which gives an extra challenge. However, I would never recommend anyone watch a pilates video which utilizes weights but forgoes pilates principles about alignment. Not only will the viewers not gain all that they can out of their workout, but it is dangerous.

In sum: not recommended.

* Pace - Good
* Level - Intermediate
* Clear breath cuing - No
* Inclusion of pilates principles - No
* Explanation of the goals of an exercise - No
* What you get out of doing an exercise - No
* Target muscles - Very few
* Common errors in specific exercises - None

Summary: Not as good as Lara Hudson's 10 Minutes Solution Pilates
Comment: I liked Lara Hudson's previous DVD, 10 Minutes Solution Pilates. I lost weight and built physical strength following her Pilates techniques for the last 3 years, so I decided to buy the new DVD, 10 Minutes Rapid Results. I was very disappointed with the new DVD. It's not nearly as good as the old one. It's too easy and boring. I don't think it's challenging enough even for a beginner. I've recommended and bought Lara's other DVD to friends, but I don't recommend this one at all.

Summary: not for beginners
Comment: I purchase this video to get started with an at home exercise routine. I want something that I can fit into my busy day and the title sold me. In fact their are a four different workouts on this dvd. You can do them all or create your workout. I couldn't do most of the moves. I tried to keep up without stopping, but I'm not that flexible. I still gave it a high score. The parts of the video I completed I felt really good about and I felt the burn in my abs, butt, and arms.

Summary: good starting workout
Comment: it is a good product if you are just starting out and need motivation to workout.
