Movie Reviews of Fat-Blasting Yoga
Movie Review: I have to disagree with the negative reviews of this workout!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this DVD workout now for a few years, and I have to say I really love it! I know some find Denise's chirpy style annoying, but I don't think she's like that at all in this DVD.. and I must say I've never heard her say 'Yea yoga' - and I've done this DVD hundreds of times! perhaps its in the intro??
I find this a fantastic all over workout that is surprisingly effective in toning up given I'm generally a cardio workout lover.. I always feel so incredibly energised by this workout. I actually feel healthier and more alive at the end of it! seriously!
This is NOT however a spiritual type yoga DVD - it's a little faster paced than that and doesn't have that kind of yoga music that those type of DVDs do.. but I don't mind that, I see this as somewhere between a workout and yoga - and I really like that..
It's also fab for doing during that time of the month, rather than a full on cardio workout - as it's nurturing as well as energising and strenuous.
The only caution I would give is about the move which involves putting one foot up above the other knee and then sitting back. I pulled my back on this move and I'd never had a back problem before, so I'd warn people to be very very careful on that move - and also the big toe stretch which also seems to pull on that same lower back muscle that I pulled. Maybe that's specific to me - but just be careful. I just do the chair pose while she's doing these ones. It's only a minute or so, so it doesn't affect the overall workout at all.
You will need a yoga/pilates ball though for the third section, and ideally also a yoga mat. Though I did it on the carpet for quite a while before I got a mat and it was fine..
I feel this workout has really stood the test of time for me. I keep coming back to it, and really enjoy the workout.
I highly recommend it..
Summary of Fat-Blasting Yoga
Denise Austin presents three yoga workouts to melt away fat, develop strength and muscle tone and sculpt a long, lean body in three weeks.Genre: How To - Yoga
Rating: NR
Release Date: 20-MAY-2003
Media Type: DVD
This well-designed program combines fast-paced yoga moves for fat-burning, hatha yoga poses for strength and flexibility, and stability ball exercises for core conditioning in three segments that can be done in one 60-minute session, or separately. Segment 1 builds patterns based on strong yoga poses such as the Warrior and Balancing Stick, adding lifts and lunges at a fast pace so that you're breathing faster and working the muscles simultaneously. Segment 2 is strength training by holding poses. Segment 3 focuses on core strength with a stability ball. Some familiarity with yoga is helpful--Austin doesn't give much instruction about breathing or the fine points of the poses--but not required. Although Austin talks nonstop, as always, her voice is quieter than usual and more fitting for this workout. (The repetitive, rhythmic music, however, is distracting rather than supportive.) Recommended for intermediate exercisers because no modifications are shown, and many of the poses are challenging. --Joan Price
