I have tried exercise DVD`s before and they are usually 5 minute wonders. It is with good intentions that I buy them and with great enthusiasm that I try them but then they take pride of place in my DVD collection not touched again for months. I am not lazy, I attend a gym and enjoy exercising but find it difficult sometimes to become motivated at home. One of the classes that I used to frequent at the gym was pilates but work commitments made it more difficult to make the class so I decided to give the DVD a go.

Advantages: Good Instructions and clear photographs Disadvantages: You may prefer to attend a class
of ankle weights would also have been useful here, which I did not have, but not all the exercises require them and you can certainly work without them. The sets centre around leg raises and circling motions while lying on your back, so you do need a bit of room to practice in your living room.
Part Four: This is for core stability, ie. your tum and thighs. It also has a lot to do with posture and although the exercises do not look very energetic, some are deceptively difficult, and of course it depends how hard you devote yourself.
Each exercises is colour coded, and a set of tinted photographs on a double page spread show the order in which you should carry them out. This sounds a bit odd, but basically, an exercise from the basic set may be followed by one you learnt in week one, then back to another basic one, and then a bit ...
On location in the Cotswolds, Lucy Lloyd-Barker demonstrates how to keep fit and improve posture for a stronger back and slimmer body, featuring exercises for the beginner and for the more advanced.
