Summary: 4 Stars
Denise is an angel in this DVD. Lots of encouragement, support and quality instruction. Her voice is smoothe and beautiful and the workouts are challenging and refreshing. This makes a great addition to your current workout or as your complete workout.
If more folks would excercise the way Denise describes it, there would be more fit folks in the world. "The goal is to train the body, not punish it!".
I always recommend learning to really stretch and make your body limber and feel good before even beginning any other kind of workout program. Learn to excercise in a way that feels good and with nice, graceful form first. The second thing is to adjust your expectations....go for longer term fitness goals. Make a comittment to being healthy and fit all through your years. Do you want to feel good, healthy, fit and flexable for as long as you can? Oh, a side effect of enjoying excercise is that you will become more youthful and attractive looking and feeling.
Just start with flexability, suppleness and grace.
Those who would advise "No pain, No gain" are better off ingnored.
If you can detect the difference between the feel of stretching muscles gently past the old comfort zone and into more flexability vs. pain from overextending joints and forcing muscles to perform WAY past their current level of extension, then you'll know that it's better to move toward pleasant sensation that causes some exertion. If you are too sore to excercise tomorrow...you went too far! On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being no effort and 10 being absolute maximum effort and force...try 70% of your wokouts at 6, 7 or 8 gently pushing up into the higher ranges to increase your capacity when your body is warm, loose and limber. This will make today's "10" next week's 9 and so on.
Have fun and be nice to your body. Then your body will be nice to you.
God Bless.
