I only like circuit 5 so I do it three times. Too much jumping in the other circuits. The abs circuit was ok, nothing new. I would be happy if one of the circuit contained weight training. Over all I waste my money on this one.

  • I received this dvd in a timely manner and started to use it. The company I used was excellent. Thank you.

  • Okay, so I think some of the raving reviews on here are kind of silly. It’s a workout DVD, so how good can it really be? I guess the answer depends on what you are really shopping for. I bought this because I wanted to have something to play on my laptop when I travel and want to workout. It’s great for early morning workouts to wake you up and get the heart rate pumping. I’m completely satisfied with this product for that reason, but if you are looking for something to really tone up, then you need to go running or go to a gym.

  • No doubt about it, this is a killer workout and highly effective. If you want to lose pounds this will do it. I do suggest lifting weights aside from just doing this video also.

    What ruined the video was Jillian’s abrasive personality. I don’t enjoy people who pretend to be hard a**es while they don’t complete the workout themselves. She’s too busy posing for the camera and envoking her ‘tv personality’ instead of doing the workout. I find this totally annoying. I have watched other videos where the technique and form are properly explained and the instructor is actually performing the workout. She need to practice what she preaches. I still do the workout though, in order to balance my frustration with her and the positive effects of the workout, I just pretend to kick and punch her when the workout calls for kicks and punches. HA!

  • Apex Dexterity Kit
    I bought this kit for my Dad and the only thing he is finding useful is the lamp switch clipons. It remains to be seen if he will try any of the other products but so far that is the only thing in the kit that he feels he can use.

  • Apex Dexterity Kit
    We found that the cover for Keys was useless. Tried to fit it to many different styles of keys and none would allow the cover to close. The Utensil handle cover also did not fit the silverware we had and the one knife it did seem to cover it would easily fall off. The zipper pull was very clumsy to use and therefore was more of a pain to use than not. The light switch covers did seem to work fine as well as the pencil covers. But the key and zipper pull was the main reason I bought this product and I was very disappointed to find neither really worked as anticipated.

  • Bowflex Fit Trainer Plus Heart Rate Monitor and Pedometer Watch
    Although this watch has accurate electronics, the watch itself is easily damaged. The crystal cracked down the middle (unknown cause) and a little overspray from outdoor bug repellent severely clouded the crystal and took the silver paint of the surrounding area. It still works, including the pulse function, but it looks terrible and I don’t think its water resistant any more. I won’t purchase another like it.

  • Bowflex Fit Trainer Plus Heart Rate Monitor and Pedometer Watch
    I got this watch as a gift. I was looking for a watch to use while running, and this seemed like it would work. I wanted to track my time, distance, calories burned and heart rate. It worked great at time and heart rate. However my calories burned was way off because it wasn’t tracking distance right. I ran a trail that I know is 2 miles (I measured it off the odometer in my car), but it only showed that I ran .5 miles. It kept my heart rate just fine, so if that’s what you’re after, this is a great product. I ended up returning it. It didn’t fit my needs.

  • Bowflex Fit Trainer Plus Heart Rate Monitor and Pedometer Watch
    I really liked the product WHEN it worked, but the pedometer would shut itself off in the middle of a run or walk. I thought it was the battery, so I had a new one put in, but it continued to shut itself off. When it shut itself off, it would reset all the settings including the date and time, so I would have to reset everything again. Finally, I sent it back and requested another one, hoping I just got a defective one. The new one arrived and worked great for a couple of weeks, then started doing the same thing. I started to send it back, but my time had run out and I would have only gotten a partial refund, so I now have a $69 watch/stopwatch not good for much else.
