User Ratings and Reviews

3 Stars same clips as her “Ultimate Body” dvd
I bought this because I have her workout dvd, “Ultimate Body” and LOVE it. However, this dvd had the exact same clips, not just the same moves, the same clips (just less of them). I highly recommend Meghan White’s “Ultimate Body” dvd instead for these moves, plus arm, leg, and cardio exercise routines.

4 Stars Great Ab workout!
I don’t usually leave reviews for products – but this DVD is pretty good! I’ve been doing it for a month and my abs are def. looking better! The instructor (who is fairly annoying) does beginner/challenging – and the challenging is DEF. the route to go! Overall, it’s good and focuses soley on abs – and the workouts are all only 8 or 9 minutes! Good DVD!

5 Stars Perfect Abs Hits the Spot!
Work outs are broken up into 8-9 minute sections which is great if you want to get in some ab work but are short on time. I like this on days I don’t do a cardio workout. I also like to use this DVD in addition to weight training. The workouts really do “hit the spot”, you can definitely feel your muscles responding. I highly recommend!

5 Stars Excellant Ab Workouts
This DVD has 8 short and effective ab routines with a nice variety of workouts. Some traditional and then additions like scissor kicks and other means to get all of your abs.

I have definately noticed an improvement using this a few times a week, and they are easy to fit in. 6-8 minutes or so. Three easier routines which I started using and are good. Three more that are tougher then two other routines using weights and balls.

Good DVD to throw into the exercise mix when you want something short that gets the job done.

3 Stars not as tough as it could be
This workout doesn’t quite push you as hard as it could. It shows that anyone can make a workout video, but few people have the talent to help motivate you. The trainer counts nicely …. but there is no “interaction” with the audience. If I had my choice, I would take an ab workout from Tamilee Webb any day.

4 Stars Good for abs
The exercises in this book are great–I noticed a difference just from doing the beginner exercises. You’ll need more than the large ball to take full advantage of the book; you’ll also need 1 or 2 smaller “gymnic overballs.”

4 Stars A fitness first.
When I heard pilates on a ball, I was ecstatic! I was just impressed by the creativity used in coming up with such wonderful exercises.I attempted many of the exercises, and I just saw how valuable they would be to athletes, who have been using traditional exercises for a long time.This new system, is so dynamic, and I just love the fact that even seasoned exercisers would be challenged positively.

The author does an excellent job in introducing the audience to the material.I am not a die hard pilates instructor, so I appreciated it.

5 Stars for a truly different pilates workout try this…
this is an absolutely challenging workout if you enjoy a pilates workout. i found the workout and the results to be most enjoyable. the instructor so thorough and good that i just ordered another dvd pilates workout by her. you won’t be sorry.

5 Stars Excellent ab strengthening moves
After only a few reps, I can feel the work! I like how it builds on moves I am familiar with and has some new ones in there.

5 Stars I only wish there was a DVD on this
I know that most DVDs are for most of the exercises that are done on any exercise endeavor, including those on the ball, I just wish there was a DVD to accompany this book. I believe that DVDs help to keep people motivated to exercise.

That having been stated, this a great book to “wear you out” and get you into shape. I have always thought that doing Pilates was a good thing for the average person, but the ball makes it twice as fun.

If you enjoy ball exercising and feel that it does the job you reshaping you in the way you want, this book will be a lovely addition to your exercise routine.
