Susan Powter: Burn Fat & Get Fit November 6, 2003 Ruth Morris (Bedford, OH United States) 2 out of 7 found this review helpful
Although, this video was ok (had I had a step, it would have been better), without the step it was TOO beginner. I consider myself a beginner, but it was no challenge without the step. Susan Powter was a little rough. It seemed like she was intiminating to Sally and Eric, the two that were working out with her. To me, she was acting too much like a drill seargent in this video. (I was in the military, so I know what I am talking about). I will still do the workout. I'll just shut the sound off and play some different music in the background when I do it. It also seemed like she watched Kathy Smith's step-aerobics tape from 1992 before she did her video, because there was a lot of simularities between what Kathy did and what Susan does with the moves and the advise. It is TOO SIMULAR!! (except Kathy Smith is nice).
I really wanted to like this video, but... July 22, 2003 I work out with exercise videos a minimum of 5 days/week and was looking to add another tape to the mix. One workout with this video was enough to know it wasn't for me. The aerobic segments are extremely repetitive. Not only is this boring, but you are working the same muscle groups over and over. The toning segments are good and compensate somewhat for the repetitive nature of the aerobics, although it wasn't enough to keep me interested in the workout as a whole. I was also annoyed and distracted by Susan constantly breaking out of her routine to either praise or correct the form of the other two participants. I much prefer the leader to LEAD by doing the workout with proper form and verbally offering corrections and suggestions. I would not recommend this video--there are much better options for beginner/intermediate level exercisers.
Just Awesome!! April 15, 2003 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a great video for anyone, but especially if you are a beginner, or have trouble keeping up with other aerobic instructors. Susan doesn't make you feel worthless at working out, even if you are as uncoordinated as I am. With some videos I can get lost simply by adding arms!!!:) But Susan guides you through the steps, doesn't make you feel like a klutz, and gives you modifications if you just can't do the tough stuff. I was disappointed when the workout was over!!! She also explains in more detail the proper form of each move. Totally inspiring!!
Brilliant Instructor. April 3, 2003 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Susan is the best Instructor, ever. This is serious fat burning. No complicated routine here, just a solid workout for those who are truly serious about working out. For all fitness levels. This is a gem.
Good Video....but February 17, 2003 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The moves are fine, the variety is fine, the music is livable. The editing is so sloppy that some moves get cut off right in the middle of them so the rhythm is messed up. And the male bashing (token male novice exerciser Eric is criticized every chance Susan gets, while his female colleague, expert Sally, can do no wrong) is annoying and hypocritical. The "coaching" is inferior to her earlier video. Turn down the sound and you'll be spared the self-serving politics.
