Quickfix: Total Cardio Mix

Minna, Julie, and Nancy are my friends. Not really, but they cheer me on and keep me motivated. This workout is especially great because it is very flexible. I like to do different body parts on different days and some days I just DO NOT want to do abs. This dvd lets you choose nine different ten minute segments in any order, up to three per routine. The weight exercises (legs/arms, legs, and arms) are my favorites. Weight training is great for women because weight-bearing exercises are critical for building and maintaining bone density. You don't have to beef out, either. I use one set of 1.5 lb weights for days when I just don't think I've got much in me and I use three pound weights when I'm feeling more energetic. Doesn't sound like much, but I want bone density, not bulging muscles. Anyways, the ability to create a routine that tones the body parts I want to work on is the best feature of the dvd. If you're wanting to get ready for swimsuit season, or if you're wanting to tone up for that striptease dvd you just bought, try this: do cardio (carmen elctra's striptease disc 2, for instance, or jane fonda's old stuff) five days a week (for about 45 minutes a day, mind). Then do weight-lifting for three days a week. I actually do the weights for five days, but less will be effective as well. Muscle mass burns calories more efficiently than fatty mass. That basically means that even when you're doing nothing, those nice, well-trained muscles keep burning calories. Not really fair, is it? This is a great dvd. For some reason, the market for aerobics, weight-training, etc., is very large, but the number of products out there that are any good is very small. TotalMix is awesome, motivating, and broken into ten minute segments if you're like me and stressed out with no time to spare and kids who try to crawl under you while you're doing crunches. Have fun with this one!

I LOVE this workout DVD. I only got it last week but have used it religiously every day since. I've done all three sections (legs & arms, abs and butt) but I'm absolutely in love with the ab workout. I get my butt handed to me every time; I sweat like crazy and I can feel the burn. I know that sounds like a bad thing, but it's not lol. Each section has 3 ten minute workouts; doing different things to keep you interested...I do all 3 ab workouts every day (for a total of 30 minutes) and it goes by so fast. I've added this to my treadmill routine as well as smaller portions and a healthier diet and I feel GREAT. I can already feel my abs getting tighter, my stomach is less bulgy and I've already lost a few pounds. I've NEVER raved about a workout before, ha...and to be honest, I've never bought a workout DVD before as they never peaked my interest. However, finally wanting to work on my abs again and the price, I couldn't pass it up. Definitely worth it...and more. Thank you! I'm adding a picture of myself just before my workout today 1/27/16- I wish I had a 'before' to show the difference (not a huge difference) but there is a difference. I plan to continue using this DVD for a long time to come and will update and submit another photo in the near future to show better results.

I had to spend about 15 minutes watching a portion of each routine to see what they included. There is no explanation on the DVD, the cover, or even the Current/ QuickFix web site. With 9 routines, I had assumed that at least 3 of them would be cardio. However, they are all toning. The exercises are very effective. The instructors are fine. (Other than Minna's wild 80's hair... Holy cow!) The pace is slow enough to make each movement count. All in all, this is a terrific toning DVD. You just need to swap it with your cardio DVDs to get a complete workout. These are a couple of cardio DVDs I enjoy: Quickfix - Total Cardio Kick Don't buy this expecting real kickboxing instruction... not even close. But it is a fun and effective cardio workout, based on the same 10- minute routine idea. This DVD has 3 10- minute cardio/ lite toning workouts, one concentrating on the core, another for legs and hips, and another for arms. It also includes a 4th bonus 10- minute cardio kickboxing routine. You can do the whole DVD or choose your own combo. This DVD is good for everyone. They are sure to include an instructor who demonstrates easier versions of the exercises throughout the workouts. Kathy Smith - Kickboxing Workout This one has some good kickboxing instruction, taught by a real champion kickboxer. Still, it is intended as a cardio and toning workout... not a training routine for real kickboxing technique. It's fun and allows you some options in choosing your routine. It'll get you sweating. Not a good choice for people who are not already working out regularly.

Quick Fixシリーズの2つのシリーズを1枚にまとめたものです。 ヒップホップとキックボクシングです。 Total Cardio Kick Workoutの方は単品でもAmazonの評価がかなり良いみたいです。 単品よりもこちらの方が安かったりする場合があるので、個人的にはこちらの方がおすすめです。 Total Cardio Kick Workoutは、簡単なキックボクシング系です。 Tae Boなどをやった事がある人なら簡単について行けると思います。 あんまりガッツリやりたくない日に良いです。 Cardio Hip-Hop Workoutは、ダンス系が得意だったらかなりやりがいはあるかと思いますが、いかんせん私はダンスのセンスは皆無ですので、非常に難しいです。 同じくヒップホップ系のHIPHOP ABSはどうにか出来るのですが、これはHIPHOP ABSよりも難しいです。 ダンスセンスのある方は楽しいと思います。 リージョンオールなので普通に日本のプレーヤーで再生できます。

This DVD is totally worth buying because you can customize your own workout..and even though one workout is only 10 minutes, but you'll really really feel it afterwards. The instructors aren't that cutesy, so that's another bonus. Because it's divided into 10-minute segments, 30 minutes fly by so fast.

Great fitness workout DVD. There are 9 10 minute workouts to help tone your abs, bum, legs & arms. The instructors are great and explain the moves really well. This is more for toning rather than a cardiovascluar workout but can still make you break into a bit of a sweat. This is great for someone like me who likes to grab 10 minutes in the morning for a quick session before going to work.

Really good routine for busy people. Low impact but with good results.
