Review from
Suite101.com l...I’ve written before about the importance
of including work with weights in your workout. What I haven’t talked about,
however, is just how essential it is to take time for another component:
abdominal work. Review from http://www.exercisevideosreviews.com 30, 26, 8 minutes: intermediate, advanced: ab and back toning
gear: floor mat, dumbbells
The 30-minute ab segment focuses mostly on lower and oblique abs. Many variations of pelvic tilts and reverse crunches are intermixed with oblique twists and side benders. A few sets of upper crunches are included at the end. Each exercise is done at a controlled 4-count tempo for 24 or 32 reps (3 or 4 nonstop sets of 8). Trish often counts the reps aloud, adding to the impression that the sets are endless, yet letting you know that this particular exercise will eventually end! Only minor changes are made from one exercise to the next, adding to the burn factor. During the first 12 minutes of core stabilization exercises you continue to work your abs as you remain face up for 7 exercises. Then you flip over for the next 11 minutes, either kneeling or lying face down, for ten back exercises. The final two upper back exercises are done standing up and using dumbbells. Most exercises in this section get two sets of 8 reps. The 8-minute cooldown thoroughly stretches the entire body, not just abs and back. The hour flies by as Trish, a dynamic motivator and thorough instructor, offers continuous encouragement as well as plenty of form pointers and exercise modifications. The lower back is worked so infrequently in strength training videos that even advanced should pace themselves and not overdo this section at first. You can read more reviews at
