The instructor is very 80's cheesy, but the workout is pretty intense, so it's pretty easy to tune him out. This workout will definately have you "feelin' it" the next day. I am an extremely lazy and undedicated person. Somehow, I don't mind doing this every day for 8 minutes. Sometimes I even do more than one of the workouts. They are all pretty intense. Good product for your money. You won't regret buying this.
Get Ready To Sweat!
Let me start by saying I am NOT a fan of exercise videos. Usually they're cheesy and after you watch them you realize you could have done the exercises on your own. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the 8-Minute Fitness program was VERY instructional and REALLY gives you a good, intense yet brief workout.
I actually bought this for my wife and daughter, but I ended up doing it and I enjoy it more than they do! You will definitely work your body without devoting a lot of time. Too early to see any results yet, but it sure FEELS like it's doing the trick.
As in most workout videos, the leader is a little TOO perky and the program seems a little dated, but if you can overlook that, I would definitely recommend it.
4 Sure
If you use these discs faithfully you will transform your body
in no time flat -- for sure!
While the 80's outfits may be distracting, the video packs a solid punch in 8 minutes. Its a great way to get in a solid Abs or Arms workout without having to go to the gym. There are no other videos out there that are short and quick like this one without wasting a lot of time on warm ups and stretching.

This item was a big disappointment and a waste of money for me. I love TamiLee and her Arms and Abs video from a few years ago. That's why I was excited to see what I thought was a newer production of Arms and Abs workouts. The cover was different than the video and there was no reference to the older video in the description, so I thought the DVD contained all new workouts.
The 3 Arms and Abs workouts were exactly the same as the old video, so did me no good. I didn't buy the DVD for the lower body workouts, but viewed them just to see what they were. Two out of three are somehow cued incorrectly from the DVD menu, meaning you select workout 2, for example, and the DVD takes you to the cool down session from workout number 1!

I bought this dvd after seeing a recommendation by a celeb in a fitness magazine. Bad idea. I have several fitness dvd's from various outlets and this is the worst ever. Tamilee even gets confused telling you 4 more - oops 6 more when counting reps. It is formatted for vcr not dvd. It is not inspiring or motivating. Your money is better spent with other products.

i exercise frequently and am in pretty good shape. i bought this dvd to just give myself something extra to do on days i don't want to go to the gym.
surprisingly enough, i actually do feel a slight burn at the end of the segment. the dvd's strategy is to work your abs nonstop.
what i love about this dvd is the bonus material, which i end up using more then the ab portion. there's this tae-bo kickboxing segment (kai-bae) that i do regularly. it tends to exercise one side more, so i compensate by starting with the opposite side each time i do it.
i'd say this is an alright dvd. i recommend getting it if all you want is a quick and mild ab workout. i can see how over time it can strengthen your abs. but if you want something more hard core, this is...
