...to enrol at my local Rosemary Conley class to help shift the excess pounds I’d put on during my pregnancy. I had tried various diets in the past, but had never stuck to them finding them far too strict or difficult to incorporate with the rest of my family’s meals. I always ended up going back to my old habits soon after becoming bored with the regime. However, the Rosemary Conley diet was different – so much easier to follow and the whole family ... ...that are part of the Rosemary Conley diet class were more beneficial. I was becoming much fitter as a result, and I was also making lots of friends as well as toning up my flabby bits.
Once I had reached my target weight, I still watched what I ate, and also went along to the fitness classes twice a week just to make sure I didn’t slip into my old ways again. I had found a class that I loved and I didn’t think I’d ever find myself saying that. I ...

Advantages: Fight the flab and have fun Disadvantages: none, exercise is good.
...of the road. Rosemary Connelly’s Ultimate body workout is something special. What impressed me immediately was the way that before the workout began there was a section where she explained a few of the more difficult moves nice and slowly. This was great for me because I have this problem where sometimes my brain forgets to tell my feet which way to go and I end up in a heap on the floor. By the time I’ve mastered the step they’re doing something ... ...heading for the goal posts. Rosemary talks you through each different step and has four ladies with her, each working at different levels of fitness, from the most basic to a much more active routine. What impressed me so much about this one, compared to others, was the amount of time given to warming up, stretching and then the cool down at the end. I am a qualified gymnastics instructor and I know the importance of warming up properly. I loved ...

Advantages: Fun, easy moves, no supermodels. Disadvantages: Hard work, a bit untrendy.
Rosemary Conley is my Mum's guru. She goes to her diet and fitness classes and adores every word that comes out of her hallowed mouth. Rosemary has been going for years, bringing out such delights as her Hip and Thigh diet and Flat Stomach plan, as well as her very successful clubs.
To me she is a middle aged woman who wears flowery
leggings and speaks in very soothing tones as though
she is your best friend. My Mum had one of Rosemary's
older ... ...smug and virtuous afterward.
Rosemary is joined by 4 women who do the workout
behind her. These are ordinary women who have all lost
weight through going to Rosemary's classes, and they
all work out at different levels. This is good because
if you are new to exercise you can follow the woman
working at the basic level, an if you are very fit
you can follow the advanced women. As the video goes
on, Rosemary introduces all of the women and ...

Advantages: Easy to do, even if you are new to exercise Disadvantages: Easy to not push yourself
...was advised to go for Rosemary Conley as she is gentle with the wrists!
There are two main work outs to choose from. One is a half hour aerobic workout. There is a long warm up and cool down, with plenty of jumping about in the middle! There are people working at different levels in the background. It is very easy to just stick with the level Rosemary works at, though. I am sure I could easily work harder as I do not feel exhauted at the end of ... ...managable for most people, and Rosemary gives tips for making some of the exercises easier for people who find them difficult.
There is also a chair exercises routine for people who find it difficult to stand or who will find exercising difficult. I haven't done this routine myself.
The music on the dvd is already quite dated, with hits from groups such as boyzone! but it is upbeat and fun to jump around to. I haven't got fed up with the music ...

Rosemary Conley is one of the best fitness instructors as she almost always explains the exercises in a way that makes them easy to follow. There are several different exercise levels demonstrated on the DVD and you can easily switch between them part way through the routine.
This DVD has a half hour aerobic routine and a half hour toning routine (there's also a chair workout for people with mobility difficulties, but I haven't ... ...it can be used by beginners - and, if you follow the advanced exercises, it's sufficiently strenuous that it'll maintain fitness levels for fitter people.
Hand held weights can be used for the toning workout and I find that this workout is a really good cool down after the aerobics.
I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to lose weight or just improve their fitness level. ...

Advantages: easy to follow and keep up with Disadvantages: only half of dvd is aerobic the rest is toning and stretching
...love it. I have several Rosemary Conley exercise dvds but this one is a favourite of mine. It is easy to follow. The pace is good and perfect for most fitness levels. There is also a chair workout for those less mobile. I would definately recommend this and hope to be seeing results for myself shortly. This DVD can also be found in a triple back which includes two other dvds. The music isn't bad either - mostly pop and dance(which isn't usually my ... ...if you own any other Rosemary Conley exercise dvds or have attended any classes, most of the moves are the same....the box steps, knees raises, walk forwards, step and reach, leg curls...no salsa in this one though!!! Repetitive yes....boring ...no!
There are five sections - running time 79mins(i don't do the chair workout but if i do all of the exercise sections you do about 50 mins total)
