5.0 out of 5 stars
It actually works!, 2 May 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, 11 May 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.

******3 inches in 6 days!!*****, 13 Jan 2007
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)
