In this stepped up Volume 2 version of THE BIGGEST LOSER: THE WORKOUT 2 you will be able to maximize your weightloss efforts in minimum time with "The Biggest Loser" trainers Bob Harper and Kim Lyons, and six contestants from seasons two and three of the NBC hit show. No matter what your fitness level, this no-gimmicks program will give you the tools and motivation needed to shed pounds and improve your overall health! To support you in your success, this DVD includes workouts specifically designed for men and women, and a customized option allowing you to mix-and-match your workout according to your current fitness level. Since weightloss is also about nutrition and lifestyle, we have also included both an inspirational segment and a nutritional cooking segment. |

Great workout. |
I really have enjoyed this DVD. The different options given really allow you to customize your own workout, even different men and women options.
I do have to say that although the DVD cover says balance ball, weights and medicine ball optional, the one portion of this video really requires them (boot camp), I can't see a way for you to do the exercises without them. That's the main reason I gave this 4 instead of 5 stars. I do have the equipment and think the workout is great, but if you don't have them, I'd probably skip this DVD for a different one. |

Best workout DVD I've ever bought! |
What a fantastic DVD! I had lost about 30 pounds the "old fashioned way" (that is, eating right and lots of exercise). I maintained that loss and decided I would like to lose another 15, and my old DVDs just weren't going to do it any more. I decided to get this one as a way to bust through my plateau and really kick-start things -- and boy, has it worked! I've only lost 3 pounds since starting this DVD about 4 weeks ago, but I've lost 5 inches overall!
With this DVD, you mix and match all the parts to make a workout that fits into your schedule. It's great for folks who don't have a lot of time, and just need to sneak a really intense, short workout in, as the longest "chunk" is only 15 minutes long. Besides the warm-up/cool down, there are segments for Cardio (low impact OR high impact for either men or women), strength training (Bob's Boot Camp OR weight training for either men or women), and flexibility.
All of the segments are very challenging, no matter what your fitness level. The weight lifting and high intensity cardio segments are always shown with easier adaptations of the moves, and Kim and Bob even show ways to make the moves harder if you need a bigger challenge. I always end up dripping sweat when I'm done (if you don't want to sweat, skip this and go for a walk outside), and feeling AMAZING. You WILL feel the burn with this workout! Be forewarned though, there are A LOT of squats and lunges, so if you have joint problems, you should talk to your Doc or just skip this.
The best part, I think, is the fact that the contestants are the ones doing the workouts. You're not watching 6 super thin/super buff people do the moves perfectly without ever breaking a sweat. You see regular people who have lost weight and want to lose more working their butts off. It's encouraging to see folks weighing 75 pounds more than me doing these moves, losing their balance, groaning with effort... When you do this DVD, you can't help but think, "if these guys can do it, I can too!!" And Bob and Kim really drive that message home.
Just a GREAT DVD for anyone who needs a challenge. |

Not a safe workout for the knees |
|
Lunges and squats are the two exercises that destroy the knees. The Biggest Loser workouts are full of both. I recommend that you avoid at all costs...your knees will thank you. |

Best Workout DVD EVER! Great for thouse just getting started as well as the advanced. |
|
This DVD is awesome! It is great for those just getting started as well as for the more advance/active types. The workouts are customizable so you can quickly select what you have the time and energy for that day. It's so motivating, challenging and yet attainable. To me its pretty much like having the Biggest Loser trainers stop by my house every morning to give me a little push. Just the best!! |

Will Keep You Motivated! |

Our family loves this dvd. Lots of customizable workouts so each day can be different. We like to mix this one in with the other Biggest Looser workouts. In this one there are men's and a women's cardio and sculpting workouts as well as others for co-ed workouts making 9 mix and match workouts. Truly versatile! Lots of The Biggest Looser cast members workout with you and keep you inspired. If they can do it, so can we! They are so real and struggle just like us. This dvd only has Kim and Bob, but they sure give you a workout. Both are very down to earth but tough as nails. We look forward to seeing what else they come up with. |
