 It actually works! May 2, 2007

This is my first ever fitness dvd buy! In the past I thought all fitness dvd's were a waste of money and didn't work. But I decided to give this a go, as I'm abit of a cheapskate and didn't want to join a gym! And after reading all of these positive reviews on here, I thought it must be good!
The Power of 3: I do this workout (the full hour) every weekend...it's a good pace, not TOO strenuous, but not so you feel it's not doing anything. It basically runs through some squats, (which HURT!) and then moves to work on your arms and upper body, then you move onto working the abs.
3 thirty minute workouts: With working full time, I find these 3 workouts to be useful during weekdays...i do these 2 or 3 times in the week, alternating between the 3. Even though it's only for thirty minutes, it really does you good and you really work up a sweat! 'The Pump' is probably the hardest of the the three and is jam packed of really painful squats, so if you wanna tighten those thighs and bum, do this one! I felt the pain for 3 days after doing this one, but atleast I know it works! The definate plus side to this dvd is the fact that it's not just some ex-popstar / soapstar...it's davina, with her 2 professional trainers, and they are really really helpful and make it so much more encouraging to do :)
I started a healthier eating regime when I got this dvd...so i've been intaking about 1500 calories per day and up to 40g fat per day...doing a workout 3/4 times a week, and weighing and measuring myself weekly.
Just to let you know how much this has worked for me...In just under a month, I have lost 10 pounds in weight, 7cms from my waist and 4cms from my bum! I feel and look a whole lot better!
UPDATE: June 07 - I've stopped my regime now as I have met my target weight. I did this healthy regime for 40 days, and I lost 1 stone (14 pounds), 9cms from my waist and 5cms from my bum. I still do this workout 3 times a week. A must buy for anyone looking to tone and sculpt!
Very impressed May 11, 2007

After having given birth in October of last year and not being able to afford the gym any more, I was looking for a fitness DVD that would offer a challenging workout (not just for beginners)- and this is it! It doesn't become boring, because you can rotate the sections every day, which I find great. Other fitness DVDs that I bought in the past either required you had a living room the size of a gym, or were not hard enough. This DVD takes the restrictions that you have at home into consideration and is good both for beginners and the more advanced. Davina may get on your nerves if you don't like her, but personally, I found her quite funny and natural. The 2 personal trainers are also down-to-earth (unlike some American fitness trainers, which are over the top). Very professionally done and worth every penny.

I have never owned a workout dvd before, or written a review but this purchase was massively worth the money I wanted to share my experience!
Firstly, if you are thinking of buying a Davina DVD and don't know which one, this box set is for you. It gives you the equivilant of a different workout every day for up to 2 weeks (based on a workout every other day) and has seperate sections so you can work individual areas.
I lost my figure after having a baby. I have never been one to exersise, being lucky to have a naturally slim figure! But I have gone up to a size 16 and felt embarrassed to go to a gym. This New Year I have decided to loose a stone before the end of Feb and got this box set to help. IT'S AMAZING!!!
It is easy enough for even me to do, yet really works key areas. I have been doing it for 7 days now and have lost just over 3 inches around my flabby waist! I had a horrible "overhang" before, but that's gone! I haven't lost any weight yet though and would advise you measure yourself as well as weigh yourself before you start as muscle weighs more than fat and you'll notice the inches go before the pounds!
Be warned though, you WILL ache!! My body doesn't know what's hit it! I'm doing 30 mins a day but it just isn't a chore.
There are so many fitness DVD's on the market it's hard to choose which one suits you but I like Davina so would rather her have my money!
(this is a genuine review!! It sounds fake but I am that pleased with this boxset. It's worth spending a couple more pounds to get the 2 DVD's)
Very happy first time buyer! March 6, 2007

I'm 25 years old and was after a video that would help improve my overall fitness and toning. I wanted something that would be cheaper than joining a gym and that I could do at my leisure in the comfort of my own home. After looking through many videos I decided on this box set and have been extremelly happy with it.
The exercises are easy to follow and they do them for long enough for you to feel you're really working your muscles. It's not too easy and each time you do it you hope to get better and be less tired at the end!
Having the three 30min work outs and the power of 3 dvd is great, as it provides many options for working different areas of the body or a total work out, or a core stability workout - more yoga/pilates based. There are warm ups and cool downs which are great and I'm definitely aching the next day...which I always feel means I'm doing something that's a good level for me.
A great buy all-in-all and around 3 hours of exercise - most dvds can only offer 30mins for the same price!
It Works!! March 12, 2007

I struggled to decide which fitness DVD to get, wanted something not too easy, but not too hard - either would just put me off ever exercising again. Bought Davina's box set about 4 weeks ago and it is certainly making a difference, not to weight los but definitely my body shape and fitnes level. I'm only on the power of 3 dvd so far, and have when I can, done it at least 3 times a week. The 60 second fat burner sessions can be quite intensive if you're not fit, but the good thing is the trainers will indicate where you should rest up and then bring you back in again. Don't be put off by how fit Davina clearly is, she does mention in the intro she's been on her own fitness regime for a year. Having said that, IT IS HARD WORK!!
Only two negatives for me - first, for the floor exercising they move into different positions too quick sometimes and I have my finger ready on the pause button to try and keep up - second, for those that really aren't used to exercise other than using the stairs, the cool down stretches just aren't held for long enough. After my first attempt of the dvd, every muscle below my boobs ached for a week. Again I now hit pause and hold the stretches for twice the length of time and it's much better.
I had planned to try and lose about 3 stone but in fairness, doing these workouts 3 or more times a week will help to change my body shape so much that I probably won't need to lose even half that weight, I'm already losing inches off my waist and hips.
Definately recommend it.
