Summary: Fabulous
Review: I highly recommend this exercise video to everyone and anyone who wants to get into shape. I bought this along with her quick fix tape and I really love them. I taught aerobics for 8 years, so I am not a beginner and I know what will work. THIS WORKS. Minna is one of the best instructors out there. She doesn't get on your nerves and I thought at first that 30 minutes wouldn't be much of a workout, but ten minutes into it was enough to change that attitude. What I really like is that it is customizeable. So you won't get bored(which I do quite often with exercize tapes). I strongly, highly recommend this tape along with her Quick fix tape. That is all you will need to work out everything on your body effectively. I have several workout dvd's and these are the only ones that I use.
Have a great workout.:)

Summary: Great home workout!
Review: I love this DVD because there are two very different workouts. Both are moderate to difficult depending on you and your intensity. One workout is strength/aerobic while the other is strength/yoga. I love it!!

Summary: It's as tough as you make it!
Review: I love this DVD. The Fat Eliminator is extremely effective, and I love the bonus weight section. The Stregth and Grace workout is intense and soothing all at once. I have lost a dress size in about a month, gained a great amount of leg toning and core strength.One note about the nay-sayers who think that this is not good for intermediate level and up--If you are watching and improving your form, this workout is very tough. Just as I master it I return my focus to proper form, my own resistance and using my own energy, and it becomes very challenging and I'm sweating far more than before. It gets more challenging as time goes on provided you are interested in doing the exercises properly, rather than blazing through it. I've got the tone to prove it! Though the smiles of her "girls" in the background are a little eerie if not unsettling to begin with, you'll learn to ignore it. Far more important is the high quality, not irritating motivational instruction you get from Minna. She is amazing! Buy this DVD!

Summary: Great Workouts - Very Efficient
Review: I purchased this video to compliment my yoga/pilates work. It was a little intense to begin with, but I have enjoyed great results. The length is perfect, not too long, not too short. In fact, I have dropped my personal trainer's workout as I have seen better results from just 6 weeks with Minna! Strength and Grace is a great segment for days I don't have the energy for the Fat Blast. I highly recommend this DVD!

Summary: The Great Quad Workout
Review: I really like this DVD because it is divided into 2 separate workouts of 45 minutes each. I wake up at 5am and workout for 45 minutes so this fits into my schedule perfectly. The Fat Eliminator is AMAZING in that it is an intense cardio workout that not only gets the heart pumping, but it also gives you a great strength workout. I used to belong to a gym for 5 years and did cardio for 2 hours, 4-5 days per week. I now do my own workout using a treadmill, two of Kathy Smith's step aerobics tapes, Crunch--Total Yoga and now Minna's Fat Eliminator and Stength and Grace. I have to say that if you are a beginner, the Strength and Grace portion is Ok as it combines ballet and yoga moves, but the Fat Eliminator section may be a little hard on you as my quads were hurting the next day and I am not a beginner. Overall, I think this is a GREAT workout.

Summary: Minna's Balanced Blend is the Best !!!
Review: I really love this DVD because it is very well-rounded. I like doing the aerobic "Fat Eliminator" in the morning because it is very energizing and not too lengthy (30 min.) The optional "Blast the Fat" segment is a great add-on to the previous workout (an additional 15 min.) or you can do it alone if you're in a real time crunch. "Strength and Grace" is a yoga-based workout that focuses on strength exercises combined with deep breathing and stretching. It is truly unique. I enjoy doing this one before bed because it is very relaxing towards the end. It is a great stress reliever and it will help you to look great too! I started this program 1 month after abdominal surgery (with my doctor's permission, of course) so I was kind of out of shape when I started it. It is about 3 weeks later and I can't tell you how much stronger I am and how much better I feel. I almost didn't mention I'm looking better too! I give this DVD an A+ !!!

Summary: Excellent !!
Review: I recently purchased this DVD and I absolutely love it. It combines both the Fat Eliminator and Strength & Grace tapes together. Altogether it is 90 minutes long. You can pick and chose which section you want to do b/c it is on a DVD, which is great if you only want to do a few things from each section. I personally loved the work-out I got from the Fat Eliminator section..it really works your muscles. It is an excellent cardio and strength training work-out. You start sweating within 10 minutes of the work-out. It also has 15 minutes of abe work at the end..which is great too. I really enjoy Minna as an instructor also...very easy to follow.

Summary: Pain you will come to crave. Results included.
Review: I won't lie. I hate this workout. Why? Because it is HARD. But I still do it. Why? Because it works. I have become stronger, more toned, pulled in and energized. This is one video that after you learn the routine either put it on mute or turn your back to the television and just listen to her. It simply takes up entirely too much of your energy to do both. And believe me, you want to get through the workout. If you don't like loads of leg work this isn't for you. There is a lot of plyometric jumping. Your quads will BURN like crazy (still worth it!) so beware. The second portion is awful. I never use it EVER. There are so many other quality toning routine videos out there that do so much more for your body, are less confusing and make you want to come back and do it tomorrow. The cover boasts Pilates. If you're going to do pilates, go all the way. For this I am an advocate of the Crunch Series and Jennifer Kries' pilates videos.
