Molly Fox's Yoga: Yoga Sculpts utilizes the ancient practice of yoga to strengthen and elongate major muscles. This 45-minute program offers an alternative to traditional weightlifting with postures that require a full range of motion and deep breathing. Instructor Molly Fox kicks off this sculpting regimen with sun salutations and continues the session with warrior and triangle formations. Poses are held isometrically and the abdominal muscles become key in stabilizing the body. The midsection gets a killer workout while holding the body in alignment throughout movements that encourage spinal flexibility and hamstring pliability. Beginners and participants with injuries or weak joints will find an accommodating format that moves slow enough for mastery of exact form. This program would be a terrific addition to any exercise fanatic's fitness library (especially for strength trainers who are burned out on mainstream resistance exercise). The music and scenery are nondescript but the content makes up for any lack of inspiring imagery. With repeated use, Yoga Sculpts has the real potential to increase flexibility, definition, and lean muscle. --Olivia Voigts

Customer Reviews

Excellent Yoga DVD
I ordered this DVD after reading reviews of several others on Amazon.com. The reviews all said this video was great and I have to admit I was surprised because I'd never heard of Molly Fox. I took the chance and ordered it because unlike some of the more well known videos this one had no bad reviews.When I first started the dvd I thought it looked kind of low budget but I quickly realized that what it lacked in budget it definately made up for in content,good camera work, excellent audio and simple but appealing backgrounds. The music was relaxing but not overpowering, the background was simple but soothing. Molly was so reassuring and obviously well skilled. She had a good pace to the video and described all the moves well. At first you'll probably feel she's moving quickly but this is actually the way the Sun Salutations are supposed to be done from what I hear. Also she does some more difficult moves but takes it slow enough that I was able to make it through them. One of the most important aspects of a good yoga dvd is the audio and the instructions. If you cannot follow the instructor based solely on their voice and instructions you will find yourself confused in some poses. Molly definately had this down. You can actually see that Molly really enjoyed making this video and that she is very much inspired by Yoga. This is a good dvd for an experienced person or a beginner. It's about 36 minutes which is perfect for before or after work. Believe me, you will love this video! Thanks Molly!

Challenging!
I am new to Yoga. I had always belonged to a gym where I used weights and the treadmill. I started getting bored with my routine and with 2 small kids, couldn't always fit my workout in. Because of the great reviews she received, I purchased Molly Fox's DVD. Thank goodness I am flexible! This would be extremely challenging for someone who is not. I feel like this DVD is challenging enough where I will not master it right away but will not get frustrated trying. For a relatively short workout, it does target the entire body. After following Molly's workout every other day for a month, I have definitely noticed more definition in my waistline and I feel overall leaner and better.

Good for Any Beginner
This DVD is good for anyone beginning yoga. Don't expect a lot of scenery - there isn't any - but if you want good instruction and alternatives to some of the more difficult poses, this is a good option.
