 Great Total Body Workout May 5, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I own all of Jari's workouts and while they are somewhat similar in style, they each have unique features. The Slim & Lean is not at all the same workout as Ripped to the Core like another reviewer is suggesting. Slim & Lean is like the original Ripped just the advanced version, very intense working one muscle group at a time. Ripped to the Core is mostly compound exercises (multiple muscles and exercises at the same time). It also contains exercises that really kick up your heart rate. It's an excellent total body workout that burns tons of calories and exhausts your muscles in about an hour. For some reason this never gets boring for me and I really like Jari's personality.
Don't think twice, just order this one! May 3, 2008

This tape is without a doubt highly addictive! In fact I have proceeded to buy the entire Ripped line after trying this one! It's an intense high calorie burning strength routine. You feel like your getting a personal training session right in your own home! I highly recommend this and have already spread the word to anyone who would listen on how great this tape is! I love how it's broken down into 5 minute segments. You move from one area of the body to another with complete ease. Very easy to follow, and just burns them muscles like nobody's business! I've done this tape 10x now and am still sore after each time! My muscles have really begun to pop threw. I am stronger,leaner and much more toned in just 4 weeks! Don't hink twice about this, just buy it and prepare to be sore!!!!

As I said in my Slim and Lean review, I like Jari's routines but they're just too long for me. I think I like this better than Slim and Lean because this has the compound exercises and in my opinion, I'd be burning more calories. I use 3-8 lb dumbbells depending on which muscle group I'm working on. I may have this for a while now but I still do the spider push-ups on my knees 'coz I prefer to finish the track than give up right in the middle of that track just because it's too hard. I use the step for the shoulder track but I only have 3 lb dumbbells on that one. Honestly, I picked the amount of poundage that's light at first and if after 1 minute, it's just too easy, then I switch to a heavier set. Jari even mentions that if you're not feeling it, overload on those muscles 'coz that will give results. However, she also reminds you that if it's too painful, go lighter....so listen to your body to avoid injuries. Bottomline, this is a great DVD. It's nice to have this in your collection because every now and then you'll have that extra hour in the morning. Oh....at the beginning of each track, it tells you how much weight each participant will be having so that can also be your guide... but remind yourself that if your new to Jari, these people in the video are fitness instructors; they do this for a living....so again, get familiar with it first and listen to your body...GOODLUCK! I still rate this 5 stars 'coz it's not her fault that I don't have 1 hour all the time....
I love them all March 31, 2008

I have all of Jari Love's workouts and I think they are all fabulous and just different enough to keep it interesting. I have lots of workout dvds but Jari's, Cathe's and Amy's are my current favorites. This one is straight forward, difficult and rewarding.
the BEST video i've ever done. January 22, 2008

There's NO WAY you aren't going to get a fantastic workout doing this routine. It will whip your sorry behind into shape in no time, trust me! It is currently my favorite workout video. The "holy grail" if you will.
I was feeling ugly & depressed last year because of how bad i looked & i felt crappy too. I was always naturally slim but years of a desk job & not eating right caught up with me. I had just turned 31 & I never had any energy, i panted going up only 1 flight of stairs, and even though i was technically still kind of skinny i was flabby & gross. My once pretty legs looked like scrawny little chicken legs. I had grown a pot belly, i had a pathetic withered looking bird chest, and sloppy jiggly flabby arms. ugh. thinking about it makes me shudder....NOW i have so much more strength. I don't ever pant going up or down stairs, I feel healthy & strong, and my sexy legs are back! Sure there's more meat on my bones but it's muscle and man it looks good! the flab on my arms is gone, i don't have any back-fat when i put a bra on, and my chest looks normal again. I am small chested so it'll never be huge but at least what is there is shaped nicely now. Oh, and my waist size went back down. I fit in clothes that i was too flabby in the gut for last year. I love my body now.
Here's how i got started with my transformation from pot-bellied bird-chested weakling to sexy-legged muscle-butted ripped powerhouse......Disgusted with myself & not getting good enough results after months of just cardio videos & walking outside, i realized i had to try something else. I only wanted to tone up & lose a little bit of flab. So naturally cardio seemed the way to go. I was SO wrong about that. I toned up slightly but that's about it. I needed something new but I was always scared of anything with weights, i thought i'd end up looking like a dude. But i did a LOT of research online. I came across the Jari Love 3 pack & reviews were nothing but good. Everyone seemed thrilled & they all raved about her videos & said they are the best. So i took a chance & ordered it off amazon. This was about 6 months ago. The day i got the videos i was excited but prepared for being disappointed as i always seemed to be. But i tore open the package & Right away i tried Slim & lean. It was tough, but I liked it so much i stuck with it. Even though it was hard for me to complete i could tell i was getting an amazing workout. I was huffing & puffing & my heart rate was definitely up. i was hooked. I also tried the other two videos, "get ripped to the core" & "get ripped". But "get ripped to the core" was too hard, i couldn't get a feel for it. I felt off balance & just wasn't in good enough shape to complete all the moves. I wasn't in good enough shape yet. Plus i have a BOSU, not a regular step. It is really really challenging doing compound exersizes off the bosu. And "get ripped" seemed easier. Since i wanted tough but not impossible, i stuck with "slim & lean". For a few months i did just that video to build my strength up. well a few months of that video prepared me for being better able to handle the routine in this video. It was still very challenging but i was able to make it through all the way. (barely!) I've been using it for about 2 months now & i can easily make it through now & the results are showing.
Now i rotate "get ripped to the core" with "slim & lean". I prefer twice a week to 3 times, if i do 3 times a week it seems like my muscles get too fatigued. I think doing the compound exercizes in this video off of the bosu is burning tons of calories. because i am really shedding that last little layer of fat i could never seem to get off my belly. My abs are starting to poke through the flab. yay!
I can't stress enough how much Jari's videos have transformed my body. I'm so well toned now i can't even believe it. The protein shakes i started drinking combined with doing Jari's videos twice a week is really doing the trick. Like Jari states in her videos, you don't get bulky. You just get really cut & lean. Her videos are beyond awesome. I just ordered the new "chiseled" video & an older one "ripped 1000". Can't wait to try those out. I'll review them after i do. :) :) :)
