Great!!!!! a* ... Read review

Advantages: worked for a while
Disadvantages: didnt work well for me

Most people will know Charlie Brooks for her character Jeanine Butcher in Eastenders, I am unsure weather this DVD did in fact help Charlie lose the weight but it is true she is now looking great. I aways feel these kinds of DVD's are stupid in the sense that the celebrities put there name on them and get all the recognition yet it is fitness trainers who actually 'teach' you the work out. I have never been one to buy this sort of thing, but hey, ...
...after buying the DVD and using it 2 twice a day (morning before work and Evening after dinner) I did star to lose a couple pounds but shortly after that the work out was not helping. I think the best thing to lose weight is just eat healthy and do a hours exercise a day, But then again everyone says that and I don't think anyone actually listens any more. ... Read review

Advantages: The different sections break it up nicely
Disadvantages: None

...Not a huge fan of Davina as she usually goes a bit OTT when on the TV but I found her to be quite inspiring as she just gets on with it and looks genuinely puffed out. Being instructed by two personal trainers is great as it gives an easier alternative to the exercises in parts when you are starting to feel the strain. The warm up gets you in the mood for the exercise and the cool down is very relaxing. A great DVD, I could start to see results after ... Read review

Advantages: Fantasitc footage of the last days of steam
Disadvantages: None

This is another in the eminently professionally produced DVD programmes on steam train released through Green Umbrella. With the Very Best of British Steam of Yesteryear, you are given a real feast for the eyes and also, for the memory, of course. Well, for those of us old enough to remember when steam trains regularly plied their business up and down the main lines of the United Kingdom. The last regular steam runs in Britain came to a very sad ...
...the first manned space flight to the moon, for those interested in transport trivia. Without an unsung bunch of dedicated enthusiasts and professional and semi-professional film makers in the previous two decades, these wonderful steam trains would not be available to the general public. They would only exist as the personal memories of aging people (myself included!) who can recall travelling by steam train (and can also recall mum, with moistened ... Read review

Advantages: Shows you the correct form for weight training, only 45 mins long
Disadvantages: Music, Kirsch himself, better for someone new to exercise.

I am a big David Kirsch fan and own three of his DVDs. Initially I bought the Ultimate New York Body Plan and his Ultimate Bootcamp and both of these were extremely advanced weight training/cardio workouts that had me aching the next day. I decided to buy Kirsch's Upper Body DVD as I assumed that this would be as advanced. I was wrong. This workout is much more for someone new to exercise and, one of its advantages is how much detail Kitsch goes ...
...repeated very much and, unless you were quite unfit, you fail to get a very intense workout at all. The DVD is divided into three 15 min sections-Upper body (arms, back, shoulders etc), Abs and chest and then a more advanced 15 min section with all upper body and abs. I have a few main complaints regarding this DVD. The first is just how annoying Kirsch is. Although Kirschs mantras and American positivity can be annoying in all of his workouts it ... Read review
