Movie Reviews of Richard Simmons: Blast & Tone
Movie Review: exercise beginner
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this tape after reading the book "Younger Next Year for Women: Live Strong, Fit, and Sexy--Until You're 80 and Beyond". The authors of the book insist that everyone needs to add weights to their workout routine. This is the perfect routine for beginners. Richard does a great job of showing you what to do and giving enough time for you to get set before he begins. The first part of the tape is stretching, then you move to the light weights where you need from 1 to 5 pounds weights, then it moves to the heavy weights which are from 3 to 8 pounds, then you end with a floor mat activity. The entire routine only lasts 30 min which is great when you don't have a lot of time. I usually do another workout tape after completing this one, my favorite is sweating to the oldies 2 but I vary it with any of the sweating to the oldies. I like 2 the best because it has one song with weights and a floor routine at the end. When I purchased the blast and tone, I didn't know that I needed two types of weights and a yoga mat but as soon as I had completed one viewing, I was back on Amazon to order them. I started with 2 and 3 pounds and after a couple of weeks have moved to 3 and 5 pounds weights. I use the 2 pound weights with sweating 2 now so they don't go to waste ( which is probably why I like the sweating 2 tape the best of the series). I decided to start exercising when I turned 45 and though I have only lost a couple of pounds ( because I am not on a diet), I do feel so much better. I would recommend this tape to anyone who is just getting started or who is bored with other tapes. I find myself watching Janet Preston as much as Richard ( she is the older woman to his left on the tape who looks like she is having so much fun-----at the end of the tape you find that she lost 145 pounds-------wow)
