5 out of 5 stars Great workout for pregnancy   September 18, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Ive been a regular runner and pilates enthusiast before getting pregnant,after finding out i was pregnant i searched online for a great workout for pregnant women. I found this dvd on amazon and read great reviews,i was convinced that this is infact an amazing workout. It gives you enough intensity that will not harm your baby,it is a complete workout,i love the challenge it gives me. This is one of the 2 workout dvds i used on a rotation basis. I would do my run then put this dvd on or my other fave the Pregnancy Pilates. I have more energy and dont feel any discomforts of pregnancy coz of staying active.One thing I love abt this is the inclusion of the kegels.


4 out of 5 stars No joke pre-natal workout   September 17, 2008
This workout is definitely not for the faint of heart. There are different modifications you can do to follow beginner, intermediate or advanced levels but you'll be sweating no matter which you follow. I started this in my 6th month and it was doable but I definitely had to stick with the beginner level, even though I have stayed active. I wish I had started in my first trimester to keep up muscle tone but I feel comfortable doing it later in pregnancy. Just listen to your body.


2 out of 5 stars Not so perfect   September 1, 2008

I consider myself to have a reasonable level of fitness and flexibility. I purchased this DVD based on the positive reviews posted on Amazon but I was disappointed and concerned when I tried the workout myself.
Some of the exercises seemed unsafe especially the abdominal crunches, lunges, squats & push-ups (even the modified versions) when you consider the hypermobility of joints and centre of gravity changes in pregnancy.
The instructor doesn't appear to grasp the concept that not every woman was a superfit trapeze artist prior to pregnancy. From what I can tell she does not have any formal qualifications in prenatal fitness, but rather developed this exercise program based on her own needs and level of fitness. On the positive the warm-up it very good.
Erin O'Brien's Pregnancy Fitness Fix (for more experienced exercisers) or Leisa Hart's FitMama (more moderate intensity) appeared to be safer but still higly effective options.



5 out of 5 stars Great Workout That's Fun and Challenging   August 27, 2008

I love to workout and recently got the clear from my dr. for exercise. This is one of the first dvds that I've bought, and I really love it. It really gives you a good workout that seems to work most if not every muscle in your body. I highly recommend it and can already tell that in juat a few weeks of using this dvd along with Prenatal Yoga with Shiva Rea and Prenatal Fitness Fix with Erin O'Brien that I'm firming up. I'm feeling much better and more energized too!
