Patsy Palmer - The Urban Workout (DVD) > Reviews

Advantages: A good laugh, good exercise, no perfect models.
Disadvantages: Some tricky moves.

I bought Patsy Palmer's club workout for the bargain price of £10 from Woolworths. What possessed me? Well, the only other exercise video I have done was one of Cindy Crawfords. Maybe it's just me, but it's not my idea of fun to be sweating in my front room whilst watching perfect Cindy looking gorgeous, never faltering, located on a beach, or at the foot of a mountain. Oi, Cindy, nooooooo! How inadequate do you want to make us feel? Some people ... Read review

Advantages: good laugh, good workout, easy to follow
Disadvantages: not an all over workout

...figures). The fitness instuctor that patsy palmer uses is called Nicki Wibrow. The workout in my opinion is for intermediate - experienced. As they dont really explain all the exercise, which was alright for me because i'm an experienced exerciser but i wouldn't recommend it for beginners. The actual workout it fantastic! It covers cardiovascilar workout and also tones your body, which will help you lose weight. There is not much floor work covered ... Read review

Advantages: It'so much fun and gives a great workout
Disadvantages: dance steps can be tricky, but you'll get the hang of them

...and it seemed worth buying. Patsy Palmer's Club Workout is a wicked way to lose weight and it really is fun. You learn dance steps to real club music and you never get bored. It isn't too difficult to do, but i think that it's more suitable for younger people, well people under 40 i'd say. I'm not saying that people over 40 couldn't do it because some of them would, but with the dance tracks and complicated dance steps it could prove to be slightly ... Read review

Advantages: It is good enough fun to do often enough for it to have an effect.
Disadvantages: Some moves might be too hard on the knee joints.

As I am certainly middle aged and quite overweight I finally decided that I wasn't going to go to a gym or whatever and bought this video. Actually, it was because my daughter said she'd do this one with me and not the other one I fancied. So it's one that can be shared by the generations. The moves are quite tricky to get first time round but they do become second nature. You can do them in a more energetic manner as you get fitter. I did it ... Read review
