Summary: Richard Simmons: Sweat and Shout
Review: I like this DVD, but would recommend it to people looking for something a little less rigorous. Although he's got you moving for the full 60 minutes (it's filmed as one continous session, which I like) he switches from move to move so quickly that it's hard to follow the first few times. In fact, you spend the first few viewings watching him so closely that you don't really build up that much of a sweat. Then after you've mastered the moves the tape becomes significantly less challenging. I would have appreaciated a seperate section that teaches the moves and then a clearly marked indicator telling you which level of aerobic exercise you were undertaking with each song. However, he's so energetic and encouraging that this dvd purchase doesn't feel like a mistake, and you can always take his moves and modify his routine to make it more demanding.
