4 Stars crunch - pick your spot
This workout is all done on the floor. There are 4 different spots to pick: total body workout, butt, thighs, or abs. Each section is 10 minutes long, so if you don’t have very much time to workout, this is great. In all her tapes she has a person that does a modified version of the exercise for people that may find it too difficult. I think that was a great idea for people like me
5 Stars My Favorite Workout DVD
Ellen Barrett’s Pick Your Spot Pilates is a 40 minute Pilates workout divided into 4 sections: abs, back, legs, and total workout. Each one is made to be done individually, but you also have the option of completing them together in one sitting.
Recommendation:
This is by far my favorite Pilates video, and I couldn’t recommend it higher to someone who wants a good cross training video to stretch and build the stability muscles that are so important to healthy running and other sports.
Over the past few years though, this has become my go-to video. I will admit, it’s pretty easy compared to some other videos that I have. But that’s why I like it. I work hard when I run, so on days between I want a way to stretch and strengthen, but still have energy to go out and run the next day. For that, this video is perfect. After completing it I feel relaxed and stronger.
I am a big fan of the multi-segment format. On days when I don’t feel like doing anything I can usually sit down to do this video, telling myself that I only have to do the first 10 minute segment. After 10 minutes though, I almost always find myself feeling better, and I usually end up doing the full 30 minute workout.
I am not hard-core into Pilates and yoga, as you may have guessed from my review. So I can’t comment on how this video would work out for someone who is. But for anyone else looking for an effective video with an instructor who is not obnoxious or overbearing, this is the one.
5 Stars I love her…
I worked with Denise Austin’s DVDs for twelve years. I bought This Ellen Barret DVD, and wow, what diference, she works efective and safety. I love her…
2 Stars Too Easy
I haven’t done pilates (or any excercise for that matter) in a long time and I am trying to get into shape for an upcoming trip. Based on all the reviews I thought this would be a good dvd to use on days when I can’t make it to the gym. I was wrong, as it was way too easy. Seriously, way to easy.
5 Stars I love it
This tape is really good, and for me, a beginner at Pilates, this was really helpful. My daughter and I like doing the workout together.
