Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
For those who want their left brain to get a workout along with their bodies, Tamilee Webb's Science of Fitness series, including I Want That Body!, is are just what the personal trainer and professor ordered. Webb, an appealing and inspiring fitness instructor, includes scientific demonstrations conducted in a lab, showing how her exercises target each muscle group. This disc contains workouts for abs, arms, and buns, and each of those areas is divided into two 15-minute segments. If you're just starting out, do just one segment each; if you really want to up your results, go for both. Webb is encouraging without being off-puttingly perky, and she has the presence of mind, while doing very challenging moves, to calmly remind us of the science behind working each particular muscle. A small complaint: For the arms routine, all she says is to use some free weights; we don't know what size she's using, and there aren't different sizes for the different types of exercises, which can be a good modifier. But if you build in the option of lighter or heavier weights yourself, you should be able to proceed nicely. Extras include a quiz about common exercise forms, nutritional tips and different-angle shots of the routines. If you Want That Body, you better be prepared to work it, but Webb is an accessible leader and trainer and manages to inspire without being a cheerleader. --A.T. Hurley

Six great workouts for a great price5
I first bought this DVD because I liked that I got six workouts for the price of one DVD. As soon as I got it home, I tried session one of the Buns workout. I got through about 7 of the 15 minutes, and I had trouble sitting down for the next two days! But with practice, doing the workouts two or three times a week, it gets easier, you can get through the whole thing, and you'll definitely see the results.

As some other reviewers have said, the second Buns workout is almost easier than the first, and at least not as aerobic, but the Arms and Abs segments do have a more challenging Session Two. The Arms workouts gave me the fastest results, and while I've just started using the Abs sections (and let me tell you, it will be a while before I can get through the entire Session Two!) I can tell by the feeling in my abs the next day that it's doing its job.

The quality of the DVD and the instructor, Tamilee Webb, make it a workout you don't get tired of doing over and over. Tamilee is encouraging without being annoying or perky, the music isn't loud, the set is simple, and since it's only Tamilee doing the workout, students repeating the moves do not distract you.

The most important thing, though, is that these are truly effective workouts, most are simple enough to follow along with the first or second time around, and since each individual workout is only 15 minutes long, you can find time in your day to at least do one or two. This DVD, along with walking a few times a week and eating healthier foods, has helped me lose 16 pounds in the last few months. It's my favorite workout and I know I'll continue using it for a long time.

A Great DVD - Perfect if You're Pressed for Time5
I was a little hesitant about buying this DVD. Tamilee, after all, is the "Buns of Steel" lady, which connoted a certain amount of cheesiness. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find a total of 6 excellent workouts (2 each for abs, arms, and buns); very nice production values; and NO hokey southern belle yakking away ad nauseum. Tamilee encourages without being overbearing, and educates without being too talkative. (The DVD sound option also lets you do the workout with music only - nice feature.) She has a great, athletic figure, and perfect form, so watching her do standard exercises makes you realize (and feel) that you may have been doing them wrong in the past. She also throws in new exercises that are challenging and effective, without being so difficult as to frustrate. All you need to do these 15-minute workouts is a mat (if you have no carpet), handweights (she uses 5 lbs. but you can use more or less), and a chair. Overall, this was a great surprise and a very useable DVD that I can grow with. I'm extremely happy with this purchase - which is rare considering how much junk there is on the exercise video market!

Excellent, effective workouts for your arms, abs, and buns!5
I just received this DVD and have gone through the whole thing. It is divided into 3 workouts - Arms, Abs & Buns. Two 15 minute programs are offered for each of the three, with the second program being harder than the first. The DVD allows you to quickly select a program.

A chair and hand weights are required for some of the programs.

I have only had this a week and it has already replaced all of my other strength training videos. Tamilee Webb, as usual, has a very quiet and professional style which I prefer over the "cute" instructors. She reminds you about correct form, and is very easy to follow. The music in this DVD is unobtrusive. It's a very professional package and well worth the money.

I have been working out for about 4 months, and consider myself to be at an intermediate level of fitness.

I found the Arms segment to be quick but effective. The moves are simple, but really target the arms and shoulders. If it gets too easy - just move to a heavier set of weights.

The Abs segment is also very effective. Both programs have some very difficult moves. Some of the moves are the classics, some are new. Program 2 concentrates more on the sides than Program 1, but all areas of the abs are worked in both.

The Buns segment is very tough. I almost didn't even do that section. I am a serious bicyclist and don't really need to work my glutes. However, I had a tough time getting through the workout, and I really felt it the next day!
