Advantages: Fabulous overall workout Disadvantages: NOT for beginners
...but also because I know Nell is very fit from having seen her run the marathon. Plus I have bought other model exercise videos in the past and have enjoyed them very much - they have to work hard to look the way they do (thank goodness!). Cindy Crawford is particularly good. Synopsis
Although Nell's name is all over the front cover, she doesn't actually lead the session, rather it is led by a fitness expert, who I believe has a military background. ... ...is much more vocally demanding. Nell follows his instructions and looks like she's in pain quite often, which makes me feel much better!
After a warm-up, there is a session of 40 minutes aerobics and then 20 minutes resistance training, with some weights, before the cool down. The aerobics session is made up of intervals - you are constantly moving, but the pace goes from fast (say running on the spot or boxing moves) to slow (squats that you have ...

Advantages: Really good fun and a fabulous workout. I love the addition of the boxing moves. Disadvantages: There is no proper cool down session and not enough stretching after the aerobics section!
...my favourite of all the Nell McAndrew DVDs. I love it! Like all her other DVDs; it is really hard and you definitely feel like you have had a good workout afterwards. This DVD is divided into four sections. The first workout is a warm up and really prepares you for what is to come. The second workout is an intensive 45 minute aerobic section with lots of squats to tone up the legs and bottom. I prefer this DVD her other DVDS because this aerobics ... ...obvious in the DVD that Nell is working hard. She doesn't talk and there is visible sweat (this definitely makes a difference to most exercise DVDs where the star doesn't seem effected at all!) This DVD really built up my endurance. I find other exercise much easier now. I can run much further without getting tired and I have seen a big difference to my figure as a result! ...

Advantages: A high intensity and effective workout Disadvantages: May not be suitable for less fit people
...My sister had purchased a Nell McAndrew fitness DVD and highly recommended it, so I thought I would give it a try. I was very impressed and really felt like I had done a really good workout by the end of it. Initially on the first few times I did the workout, I could not do the whole DVD as I found it too hard so it was a really good challenge for me. As I persisted with the DVD I could do more and more and I could see massive results and feel my ... ...feel fit and rejuvinated!
Nell McAndrews Maximum Impact is her second workout DVD. She has a previous workout DVD called Peak Energy. The Peak Energy workout is extremely intensive and is high impact all of the way through. With the Maximum Impact DVD you benefit from it being high impact but at intervals so it is more manageable. If you are at an intermediate level I would start with the Maximum Impact DVD and work your way up to the Peak Energy ...

Advantages: Easy to follow, needs little space Disadvantages: music is boring!
...see results really quickly.
Nell does say suitable for all fitness levels but if you are new to dvd's or exercise I really would take it steady as it is quite repetitive and may be hard first few times!
The instructor does have a dull voice, but I didn't find that a problem as I was interested in following the moves! The moves are very simple, no complicated twists or grapevines, simply joggin on the spot, and squatting.
Excellent abs and bums ...
