I am having quite a lot of fun with this DVD! Iit's a well-produced and quite entertaining workout.
Good results quite fast...
(I am a 30 year old female)I tried the video and did about 1/2 - 3/4 of the total workout, and noticed within two weeks that indeed those zones were getting more toned. The stability ball exercizes feel great. The video is not boring, and very effective at increasing blood circulation. Denise is fun and entertaining to watch. I don't usually get into home workout videos (this is the only one I own) but I will try Denise Austin's other ones because it really did feel good to do the workout with her style. My mom who is 62 also does the video and feels like it is effective without being overly difficult.
Losing weight FAST!
Once again Denise Austin is there to help me out! Many years ago, I bought a denise austin tape because I wanted to loose weight and I did fast! Unfortunetly, I did not keep it off and am now going to be married. So, I searched and purchased other tapes and no real results were happening. I found this DVD from Denise Austin, purchased and have been doing it every week at 3x a week minimum, for about 2 months and I cannot believe the results. I am getting so many compliments, something I have missed for the past 2 years. She has given me my confidence back and I now look forward to my engagement party. This work it amazing! Honestly, before you know it you are done. To advance the workout, I have added heavier weights so that I can continue with this same DVD and get a harder workout. I know this is something you hear about almost all workout DVD's, but this DVD is honestly easy to do and the results are so fast and amazing I honestly have no words to describe it. Best part is that I really am not dieting, just working out. I don't know how she does it, but if I could talk to her I would say, "Thank you Denise for saving me yet once again!" I have 9 more months until my wedding and I am no longer afraid that I will not loose the weight, I know I am. That is how much confidence this DVD gives to you. Oh! and I was completely out of shape when I started this DVD, but not any more. Literally, everyday I feel better and better about myself and that is something that you cannot get from most DVD workouts, but you will from this one. I give all you women who are reading this review my word!
Tip: I never take this DVD out of my DVD player so that it is there constantly reminding me that I need to work out. I put in a movie and I see there's Denise and I need to work out. And that little "trick" has really helped me out. I am starting to feel like my old self again and not that somewhat depressed woman who never wanted to dress up.
Veteran fitness expert Denise Austin's Personal Training System is one of several exercise programs designed to take advantage of a valuable feature of the DVD format: namely, the ability for viewers to customize their own workouts by picking and choosing from various elements presented in Austin's prescribed routines. These include sections devoted to cardio (available at low and high intensity levels, both about 20 minutes long), upper and lower body exercises (offered at low, medium, and high intensity, each about ten minutes long), and abdominal and stretching segments (the same for all levels, these also last about ten minutes). Meanwhile, the "custom workout" option enables users to combine any or all of these elements according to taste and fitness level. There's nothing...

This is a very fast paced workout. It took a couple of times through to learn the routine. Denise doesn't cue all that well. She's very upbeat and energetic and constantly gives words of encouragement. Most people don't like that about her, but I think she is motivating.
You definitely work all muscle groups and you'll be sweating with this workout. I'm tired, but invigorated by the end.

My favorite sectoins is the buns. It is very challenging but you stay interested. Like others I like the idea of being able to mix and mix the different 10-minute segments based off of what I want to do for the day. Beginners do not get discouraged, she may move a little fast if this is your first itme doing it but just start off by moving at your own pace and guaranteed after doing it a few times you will pick up on the moves.

I'm sure that other viewers will find flaws with this workout; generally associated with Denise's cueing and the not-being-synched to the music - but hey, its a cheap DVD, I'm not going to expect surround sound and throbbing bass.
I have been out of shape for a long time, and I know that a year ago I probably wouldn't have been able to complete this workout, but after doing Denise Austin's "Power Yoga Plus", "Fat Blasting Yoga", "Personal Training System" and "The Ultimate Metabolism Boosting Workout", I am able to complete this workout rather hap-hazardly.
What was the first thing that impressed me was Denise's attention to a proper warmup. Secondly, it is also evident that she has put a lot of thought into how this workout was designed. She took into... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Denise Austin DVD Release Date: Released the 17 December 2002 Usually ships in 24 hours
