The Tracy Anderson Method Presents Post Pregnancy Workout DVD

I ordered two DVDs from Tracey Anderson after hearing about her on Oprah from Gwenyth Paltrow. I was very excited to try this workout since I still have baby weight. However, I never recevied this video. Instead, I was sent the mat workout (that I ordered) and a dance workout. I emailed Tracey Anderson about this a few weeks ago, but I still have not received the correct DVD or any response to my complaint that the wrong product was received.

Also, it would be helpful if there was some information on Tracey Anderson's dvds about the length of the workout or a breakdown of the various segments.

Great workout! I just had my 2nd son and am anxious to get my pre-baby body back. I saw Tracy Anderson on Oprah working out Gwyneth Paltrow and was intrigued. I googled her name and low and behold she has a workout video. Not only a workout video but she has a post-pregnancy video! Just what I needed. So I ordered it and am very pleased. She is amazing! I have a hard time believing she gained 60 pounds during her pregnancy. It's about 47 minutes long and lots of ab work. It's very challenging. I've been doing it for about 3 weeks now, and I have noticed that I'm getting stronger. I can almost keep up with her now through the entire workout! No cardio work, though. So you'll have to get that in some other way. Very happy with my purchase!

I now own all 3 of the new Tracy Anderson Method dvds & this one is the hardest! I've been doing the mat workout 6x a week for 3 weeks & getting stronger & just did this post pregnancy workout & was whimpering like a baby during it because it was so hard! I've never had a baby but who doesn't need better abs? I love the ballet (classical) music & ballet influences to her workouts, she subliminally reminds us of the goal: to get a ballet dancer's body! (Strong & lean) That's what I'm committed to do this for! I love her instructional style: not much talking, just enough instruction. All 3 dvds arrived super fast too! Thanks Tracy, if you make them I will buy them! More please!

After having my baby I saw what Tracy Anderson did for Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow after their babies. She has 3 DVDs, the first two left me wondering if I ready for an intense workout yet. Then I found the post pregnancy video, exactly what I needed! I had my doubts but tried it and was whipped! I watched in amazement through most of it. I was so weak in my abs now and trying to support a bigger chest and tried to think of excuses to let myself not feel guilty for spending money on a DVD and not do it. "would it affect my milk supply if its to strenuous, it takes forever to do because I'm pausing every few mins to put my baby back to sleep, I'm too weak, ill never look like that!" on and on were the excuses. But I am so glad I stuck with it. Everyday I feel my body getting stronger, my will power to not stress eat getting better, my baby learning to sleep, and me taking the time to do something good for myself. There were so many positives that it became essential to my daily routine.
The workout is about 45 mins long. I was worried about the length but now it fits well into the morning nap. It's divided into chapters so you can go straight to the routine and not have to wait through commercials or other stuff. There is soothing classical music in the background not too loud as you cant hear her, but calms you. She is real and sincere, not loud and irritatingly perky like some workout tapes. She had a baby and was once like me, and now looks fab so it is inspiring hope that your body can be a normal shape again. Its tough, but sticking to it has brought new strength each day. I feel good, a lil soreness that makes you feel great not debilitating that you can't function with your newborn. The only downers about it is that she is so calm sometimes she doesn't say "other leg or side, or always count out loud so you have to watch which makes it difficult depending on your angle, but adds to the calmness of it. You need 1-3lb weights for some parts, and a mat helps. If you don't have weights a 16oz can equals 1lb. She shows you modifications so you dont get discouraged because you cant do everything in the beginning. Each day i do a lil more and it is my small triumph for the day! I love the ballet moves, they help me feel graceful for one part of my day and the yoga breathing helps me channel stress also through the day. I would like more stretching because it feels so good, but I love how at the end of the tape I'm not falling asleep but ready to be a mom!
if your ready to make a change and put the effort in, its a great workout, i recommend it to those who havent just had a baby because its just great ab. leg. and arm work.

From the title, I expected there to be some cardio involved in a post pregnancy workout. That is not the case. Although this is a great ab workout, I gave it two stars because I don't think it is worth the money.
