| Leisa Hart's FitMama: Prenatal Workout From Amazon (US) for |
works the abs, hips, thighs, and butt....wow (Rating: 5.00) Review : my butt was ready for a good workout now that I', 14 weeks pregnant, and i got more than that after doing the Buns of Steel girls pregnancy video FitMama...my hips, thighs and abs were also really worked, it was challenging yet is was also easy, if that make sense. You can't beleive how fun combining a good dance routine to salsa music can spice up you day, i loved it...to then do yoga toning, or a "Yoga Fat Burn" as its called in the video, was great. I had a great workout, and now, after working out to this vid at least 6 or 7 times, I think I am going to see if I can get a group of other pregnant friends over to my house to do this workout together because it will really help all us maintain some semblance of a fit body for our hubbies, even if we put some baby weight on. Leisa makes you feel good about yourself, and she's very calm and reassuring that our baby is first priority but we have to take care of ourselves to better take care of everyone around us who relies on us. She is phenomenal and I respect her so much more now that I know she's been there done that with two kids, it says alot when a fitness celebrity who has shown her butt to the world can then put on the baby pounds but lose it, and do it over again. It shows that what she's doing works and can work for me. My hubbie now is calling me Fitmama, which is kinda cute(just hope he's not wishing i was leisa hart!...lol). Back to my review, I really liked the stretch and relaxation portion of this routine, it was very good on my bones and muscles, and I think that by doing the different segments of this workout everyday I will have a great pregnancy and a great delivery. great salsa workout, enjoyable yoga and stretch (Rating: 5.00) Review : i found the amount of cardio from the salsa section to be perfect for what my body can handle, as i am not looking to tone up during this pregnancy, rather i am playing it safe and want to stay in shape. I think 20 minutes is great, and if i want to do more, i can add another 5-10 minutes of my own dance routine. The yoga is very good...i read a review someone wrote that was way off based, it sounded as if it was from a friend of another video person, Khalsa's The New Method Pre Natal Yoga, I tried that video dvd and it makes sense why that person wrote so negatively toward Fitmama; if you like that type of yoga(new method yoga), you are not going to like fitness, or if you do, you'll have your own version of safety compared to exercise pysiologists and trainers. Leisa Hart is a fitness expert, she is well known for her safety adn cueing. I have used 20 of her tapes and always loved the way she teaches and she is very highly regarded in the fitness world. Her yoga teaching may seem slow to some, but it is effective. And the points made in that review by renkey are simply not true, any fitness expert will argue that yoga experts use very poor positioning and put the body in stressful positions during certain poses, and Leisa Hart does not do that at all. Hart was 9 months pregnant during filming and she told people to be slow and safe during pregnancy workouts, she was not attempting a richard simmons sweat shop tape, and she was not trying to be a yoga guru with ancient, unsafe poses and chants. That is for some people, but thats not what I got this FitMama tape for, and I surely don't think Leisa Hart intended for anyone to think FitMama was going to be liked by yoggie purists...that review bugged me, and I think people should expect a greap prenatal workout when they buy this video. People that workout for 90 minutes a day, get pregnant, and then try to find a prenatal video to stay in shape are going to have a hard time finding anything to satisfy them, so those kind of reviews will always appear and anything with yoga will cause so-called yoga experts to question anyone from the mainstream fitness world that puts a different perspective on the fine art of yoga combined with the science of fitness. I loved FitMama, and think the majority of us pregnant women will love it too! love this prenatal workout (Rating: 5.00) Review : i love this prenatal video, the instructions are ideal, i don't have to follow a bunch of unnecessary choreography, and the personality of the instructor Leisa Hart is great....i highly recommend this workout, i never get bored doing it and always feel very refreshed and good about my workout, plus my darling hubbie thinks i am a FitMama!!! best prenatal video ever!!!! (Rating: 5.00) Review : FITMAMA Prenatal is no doubt the BEST EVER prenatal made to hit the market. I LOVED IT. Leisa Hart is a guru with fitness programming, I loved her BUNS OF STEEL videos a few years back and loved it when I saw that she did a prenatal video, expecially after doing a few others that bored me to tears. This was fund, the Salsa dancing got my heart rate to a great level, the yoga was new and fun, a great variation that Leisa explains well and it toned my hips and legs and got my back ready to deliver another healthy baby, this is a TWO THUMBS UP video!!! Great pregnancy workout -- even if you hate to exercise! (Rating: 5.00) Review : I was so excited to find Leisa Hart's prenatal workout DVD. With my last pregnancy, I took up walking and tried doing whatever prenatal workout I could, but my well-meaning husband got me a prenatal yoga video that I just HATED to do. It felt a little too much like work, forcing myself to do it. Now 4 months into my second pregnancy, this DVD has been a lifesaver! Not only do I not mind doing it, but it's actually FUN! Plus, with the DVD format, you can pick and choose what type of workout you want to do ... from the fat-burning yoga one day to the Salsa dance (my absolute favorite) the next. Plus, there are lots of prenatal stretches and relaxation techniques. I especially like how fun and upbeat Leisa Hart keeps this workout ... not at all boring or "meditative" like some. Just a great prenatal workout in general! Five stars! Totally uplifting for body and mind (Rating: 4.00) Review : I love this exercise video, I started exercising in my 4th month of pregnancy and Fitmamma was my first video. I loved it I could easily do it without getting tired or falling behind. Leisa is so good with people you feel like she is right there with you. And she slides in comments like "you should feel good about your growing body..." she makes you feel healthy not fat, as we tend to feel while pregnant. The yoga part was great because you hardly feel like your exercising but it gets your heart rate up. I also liked the Yoga because it's all just moves no crazy mumbo jumbo about breathing being your life force stuff. I'm now in my 8th month of pregnancy and still doing it. The best plus for me right now is that it really does ease back pain. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because the stretching part could be longer. I would also recommend Kathy Smith Pregnancy workout. |
