[.ca] Disco Sweat - DVD

worst video i ordered:
I'm amazed at the 4-1/2 stars for this video, as it was the worst of all I have bought. Simmons doesn't tell what moves he's going to make, and only repeats them 2-3 times, so I was always playing catchup. Meanwhile, he sings over the background music, ruining the one redeeming value! The bizarre cinematography is often focused on one person's face, or knee, etc., so that the exercise isn't visible at all. I much preferred the "Crunch" series, especially Cardio Salsa, which I purchased at K-Mart. They explain the exercises, warn you when a change is coming, and I actually could follow along the first time.

get up and dance:
have one month without cigarettes after smoking 41 years and 3 weeks of doing disco sweat...needless to say i couldnt exercise when i smoked. this is the best of the several simmons tapes ive gotten.the moves are simple to follow and the camera pans on the entire body instead of closeup of faces(which do not help in seeing what steps he's doing) you do sweat and it feels great.. have done these exercises every day for last month. i especially like richards tapes because he has real looking people there. wish there was older people in this video(like me) but hey richard and i are of an age. good workout...BUY THIS VIDEO

Terrible:
I ordered this video because I am a BIG woman and in dire need of exercise. It is impossible to try to keep up with this video. Definitely not for a beginner. No warm up and I have no idea how these women keep up. Waste of money.

Es maravilloso:
Estoy encantada con el dvd, si he bajado de peso

At last, some humour:
I am an English home gym rat, who has recently added a pile of American exercise DVDs to my collection for extra variety. Your fitness stuff is, mostly, far better than ours but blimey, your gurus take themselves seriously! Richard Simmons is the first American fitness expert who seems really to enjoy what he is doing and to make his class have a great time too. And that means us, as members of the class of course. I workout six days a week, sometimes twice a day, so I am really used to exercise, and because of that this wasn't terribly physically challenging. However, I love the fact that it is easy on your joints (the one common fault of American programmes, I find - apart from po-facedness - is being too hard on the knees) and it is a hoot to do and you *are* constantly moving. Ideal for my light exercise days.
