Gilad's 60 and 30 Minute Low Impact Workouts

Customer Reviews

Great all-over workout in 30 min.

2008-08-14
The 30-minute is perfect in the mornings before work and the 60 for when you have more time. I am 24, in moderately good shape and find this to be an easy all-over workout that will still make you sweat and give you lasting energy throughout your day. No equiptment required but you can add weights if you feel like getting more of a challenge.

60 and 30 minute low-impact workouts

2008-02-18
I have been using the 30 minute portion of this workout dvd. I find it is a good change from the more strenuous workouts that I do daily. It is a little slower-paced but I can still get a good workout by using it.

Not suited to my needs at all

2008-02-08
Very very beginning workout, in my opinion and not whatI was looking for. He barely uses his arms in the cardio portion of the 60 minute workout and my heart rate would not have moved at all if i hadn't added them on my own. Still it wasn't nearly challenging enough for me and will be donated. It is possible to make a challenging low impact aerobics workout, but this isn't it. I wish this was listed someplace as beginner. intermediate or advanced workout so I could have known more what I was getting into with this.

Just what I needed!

I am an over 50, slightly out of shape with a bad back, knee, etc. & wanted something to help me get back into the swing of exercising. This is perfect. I love the way the dvd is set up so I can choose which workout to do, whether or not I want to do the warm up or just jump right into the cardio or the floor work. Each segment has the time length it takes & what body parts will be worked. The moves are also easy to follow & I feel as if I am getting a good workout. I really do get breathless & break a sweat! Perfect if you are just getting started.

Great approach to working out

I really like the DVD. I prefer to workout early in the morning and there's an apartment below mine, so I was worried that keeping quiet would cost me a good workout. But not so with Gilad. Low impact steps that emphasize high knees and arm movements provide the best of both worlds. I enjoy his approach to exercising - "Never sign contracts with your mind that your body can't meet. ... Always exercise at your own pace." And he explains that if you don't get it the first time, keep trying, you'll do a little better every time. The program is solid yet reasonable so beginners don't get discouraged.

Aerobic part is too short

2007-05-07
Two complete workouts on one DVD. Each workout will give you a fat-burning, cardiovascular workout with minimal impact on your joints. Both workouts include conditioning segments for the abs, hips, thighs and arms. The 30 min workout is geared for the beginning level and will prepare you for the 60 min workout which is for the more advanced.

Very 80's workout

2007-05-07
This is an ok workout and if you can get past the 80's ambiance and the less fluid moves from that time period, you will like it. I prefer Gilad's newer workout dvds, i.e. the Cuts and Curves is excellent.

Great low impact workout!

This has really worked for me. It hasn't hurt my knees (they are susceptible to dislocation), and I've lost 35 pounds since I started using it in February. Once you get used to it, the aerobics segments are even fun!

Good Workout for someone with limited time!

2007-04-18
This is a great workout DVD for someone who does not have a lot of time to exercise, but is looking for something to keep them in shape. As a full time college student in my mid 30's I have not had much time to exercise regularly and find this a good source of low impact exercise without having to leave the house. Gilad has always motivated me from his television programs and this DVD lives up to the reputation of his televised broadcasts.

Gillad is great!

This DVD is great. I can do a 60 minute workout or if I don't have the time it is a great 30 minute workout. Anyone can do these exercises. Gillad frequently has you check yourself to make sure you are doing the exercises the correct way.
