A highly recommeded FUN way to loose weight February 15, 2008 C. Sprudd (Wales, UK) 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
Like alot of people, I was drawn to this dvd by the front cover, of how much weight Vicky had actually lost and how great she looks. Im not a large person, nor that much overweight, but being only 5 ft, according to statistics im overweight by half a stone. I bought the dvd wanting to shift that half a stone and tone up a bit.

br /Now, this dvd is awesome for burning fat, and lasts about an hour long in total, with 4 sections. It slowly introduces you to a few dance moves and gives u enough time to go over them until you understand and can make the most of out it. I have to admit I used to dance before, so I picked them up faster than people that dont I suppose, but trust me they are simple enough to pick up after a few times and fun at the same timme. Just be prepared to do some squats even in the warm up and press ups in the cool down, which I found tough at first.

br /I recommend that this dvd is good to do say 3 times a week for the best results. I cant even do it this much as I have to work it around my flat mate and I do it when she goes out, and im a full time university student also. But ive been doing it for about 3 weeks now, and have done the dvd about 7 times and I have seen some results.
br /From eating healthy foods, and this dvd I have gone from 8st 9lb to 8st 5lb, but I knew I wouldnt loose as much as others as I am not that overwight to begin with. Or the fact that when fat turns to muscle it weighs more, i dont know! But the real results can be seen from inch loss, i check weekly my waist thighs and other areas and have lost about 3 inches from my waist for far and a few inches from everywhere else, so it does work!

br /If you are quite overweight or want to tone up, this dvd is for everybody, I highly recommend it as a fun way to get active and actually loose some weight because it works!
Fun, challenging - a great workout! January 8, 2008 R. Hunter (Yorkshire, England) 29 out of 31 found this review helpful
I just completed this workout for the first time and worked up a real sweat! I loved it and I'll definitely be doing it again soon. As another reviewer has said, it is quite challenging, but I think this is a good thing. If the moves were any slower or easier they wouldn't have the desired effect of getting you puffing, panting and sweating so quickly!

br /Even though there are a few dance moves to learn, the instructor and Vicky go through them quite a few times so you can watch and pick them up. Some DVDs start a new move with no introduction then move straight on to another, but this one gives you time to master each move.
br /
br /The results can be seen for themselves with the Before and After pictures of Vicky. I'd definitely recommend this workout. A lot of celebrity-endorsed DVD's provide boring, aerobics-based workouts that don't really offer anything different, but this DVD provides a tough workout which promises real results.
Excellent workout January 22, 2008 JLO 19 out of 20 found this review helpful
This is probably the finest of all the new british workout dvds on the market. It is really easy to follow as there are no complicated dance steps, most of the moves are high impact so raising your heart rate and making you sweat. The music is great and it pushes you to put more energy into it. I cannot really see myself getting bored of this dvd. Well done Vicky you get 5 stars from me.
Excellent! fun and enjoyable! January 19, 2008 lostunderthestars (UK) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have just finished this for the first time and I really loved it! I am not particularly fit and it got me really sweating by the end! The moves are a bit tricky to get the hang of - I did get most of them but I am sure I will get the hang of it! I only hope that I will look like Vicky in a few months!! She looks amazing! Definately buy this if you are looking for a high intensity work out!
highly recommended January 25, 2008 Ms. J. Simmons 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
even though its fronted by a soap star, this dvd is well worth investing in. Vicky isnt annoying, and the instructer is really easy to follow, and keeps you informed of whats coming next, which is useful as some parts are quite fast paced. You get the impression that vicky is genuinely thrilled to have lost so much weight, which inspires you to keep up with the dvd. i have done this nearly everyday that ive had it, and each time i enjoy it. some exercise dvds seem to be about how much pain they can cause you in the name of getting slim, but this is just fun, although it makes you sweat loads and you can feel it the next day, but its not horrible at the time. the sections are 15 mins of easily learnt routines, and i often repeat the sections a couple of times if im feeling particualrly energetic. if i didnt end up sweating like mad at the end of this dvd i would feel like i was cheating somehow, as its generally good fun to do.
