Lindsay Brin's Postnatal Boot Camp with Moms Into Fitness (2005)

I ordered this dvd after delivering my first child. I found the repetitive "taps" music annoying. In addition, the scenery of the video was so cheap. I could not get past the poor quality of this video. Also, the exercise scenes did not flow into one another...I had to keep forwarding it a little bit. I was not pleased at ALL!!!

I'm actually in the military and found this work out to be a little too corny. I wish she would have called it something else besides postnatal "bootcamp." Maybe she could have called it "The Best Postnatal Workout" or something. It's not a bad workout, just didn't mesh with my personality. I need something a little more intense to prepare for my job again like jogging, balance ball workouts, and weights. It's a great idea though!

This is a fast easy way to start getting back into shape after having a baby. Workouts are 20 to 40 min, and can be modified to meet your fitness level. I started it about 3 months postpartum, and have been using it for 3 weeks. I can already feel how much stronger my stomach and back muscles are!!! The best thing about this video is there are tons of different options for working out so you don't get bored. I recommend doing this video every other day to strengthen and tone, and doing cardio on off days. Good luck to all the new mommies out there!!!!

This is a really great workout video. I started using it when my baby was almost 4 months, about a month ago. I noticed a difference in my muscle tone right away, and I am steadily losing weight & inches. I do the 12 week program, and I almost always add on one or two extra segments. I love how the video is broken up into 10 minute segments, I do not get bored with the workout, and the time goes by quickly. The instructor, Lindsey Brin, is cheerful and encouraging without being annoying. My problem with many videos is that the modifications seem just like the advanced version, but in this video that is not the case. I've already moved up to intermediate or advanced after starting everything at beginner. I would not recommend this video to someone who had a baby in the past month or two, and didn't stay in shape during pregnancy, because it is tough, but after that I do think it is the best or one of the best videos out there. My sister has never had a baby and she does it with me!

I have purchased this DVD 3 weeks ago and started exercising immediately. I am following the 12 week workout which so far has been really great. I enjoy it very much because the exercise is different every week so it's not boring at all. I started 2 1/2 months after delivery and I had trouble to breathe in the 2nd week of workout but I wasn't used to any kind of cardio before so I think that was one of the reasons as well.
It has only been 3 weeks since I began and I can't quite see the results yet but I do feel great every time I finish (each session is about 18 minutes long - just enough for the beginning)therefore I would recommend this DVD to anyone.
I am very satisfied and will definitely purchase another once I'm done with this one.
