DVD Description
This is my new Power of 3 DVD - it's all about sensible exercises that have given me loads more energy and a figure I feel proud of.
Together with the help of my personal trainers Jackie and Mark Wren, we have put together this work out to help you get fit at home. The concept is simple, just follow the 3 routines on the DVD which focus on the legs, abs and upper body, and include fat burning intervals to keep your heart rate up. Then be sure to exercise 3 times a week and eat 3 balanced meals a day.
My Power of 3 workout suits all ages and levels of fitness and shows both the simple and advanced version of each routine. It lasts an hour but you don't have to do the whole thing in one go, you can always just do one section if that's all you've got time for. Plus I selected my favourite music tracks to work out to. So enjoy it - working out can be more fun than you think!

I bought this after shifting a good few pounds doing Tae-bo. I felt I'd reached a plateau and needed something to help me tone up. I'd never bought a celebrity DVD before, and was a little sceptical about doing so. However, I eventually decided to take the plunge and I haven't regretted it as this DVD certainly does the job. After doing the warm up, at least two of the main sections and the cool down twice a week for several weeks, I ended up with noticeably harder, leaner muscles. This whittled an extra inch off my waistline simply by defining my abs and sculpting my waist. My legs and especially my arms are also more toned.
The workout is comprised of a 10-minute warm up, 15-minute sections each of arm, legs & bums and abdominal toning work and a 10-minute cool down. Interspersed throughout the 15-minute sections are 1-minute blasts of cardio, such as jumping jacks, jogging on the spot and punching. The toning exercises are basic and traditional (squats, crunches, curl-ups with weights etc.), but effective. They're carried out in 2 or 3 sets of eight which I found to be just the right amount, as my muscles have a tendency to bulk up too easily.
This is a good buy, especially if you're looking to tone and strengthen your muscles without adding bulk, or if you want to get back into exercise. However, if you're already fit and like to work flat out, you probably won't find the cardio sufficient in this.

After doing 'Pump It Up' to death and finding Nell McAndrew's Peak Energy a little too military in style, I was in need of a new challenge. After reading the reviews I decided to give Davina's DVD a try, although I'm not a huge fan of hers. I would class myself as moderately fit already, but have always done more cardiac work rather than toning. However, this workout is based around interval training, where you keep you heart rate up with regular minute slots of cardiac work before moving on to more toning. Each section (bum/thighs, upper body, abs) is split by 4 cardiac slots and most of the exercises are in 3 sets of 8 reps. This means that even if you are feeling the burn, you keep motivated because you know it will be over soon! I found both Davina and Jackie very motivating and friendly, and even on the first attempt was able to do the more 'advanced' moves as executed by Davina. Both ladies have normal, attainable body shapes which further helps with the motivation. You will sweat whilst doing this, and at the end you will feel that you've done something good for yourself.

I am an advanced exerciser who has, thus far, only ever ordered workouts from the States as they have a wider variety of advanced tapes and DVDs for home use. I took a real chance on this workout following much publicity by Davina after her phenomenal weightloss.
The workout is excellent, thorough, well put together and incredibly effective. You get a lot of "bang for your buck".
There are generally 24 reps of each exercise (3 sets of 8) followed by intermittent cardio intervals to keep your heartrate up in between.
The workout is broken down as follows (and the DVD is "chaptered" in this way):-
1) Warm up (basic standing leg warm up, nothing fancy)
2) Legs and bums (squat/front kick; squat/knee lift; front lunges; squat/elbow to opposite knee; squat/side leg lift; squat/calf raise; side lunges; rear lunges; squat/rear leg lift; box step)
3) Upper body (push ups; bicep curls; tricep overheads; lateral raises; front raises; shoulder press/overheads; chair tricep dips; hammer curls; upright rows; bicep/shoulder press; tricep kickbacks)
4) Abs/floor leg work (basic crunches; bicycle; pulsed crunch; staggered crunch; oblique reaches; leg shoot outs; rear leg lifts; reverse crunches; back extensions; plank (30 secs)
5) Cool down
The music is great. Davina's personlity is fabulous - she's really working hard with you.
I have seen incredible results from these types of workouts ie high rep weight training/ strength work with cardio intervals and this tape is not exception.
BUY IT - worth every penny and your body will be transformed in ways you never thought possible.
