Denise Austin - Hit the Spot: Tone & Tighten - Abs, Buns & Thighs

Denise Austin's Hit the Spot: Tone and Tighten combines several workouts from the Hit the Spot series to create a complete body workout in one DVD. This format is convenient because it hosts 20 minutes of low-impact aerobics plus six workouts that train the abs, buns, and thighs. These workouts are called chapters and are trained in 10-minute sessions. Intermediate and beginning programs are presented for each of the three body parts. That means workouts for the abs, buns, and thighs that will accommodate a variety of fitness levels and personal goals. As improved strength and stamina are gained, participants can advance from the easier to the more difficult sets. Austin utilizes simple movements and isometric exercises that are designed to increase lean muscle. While the workout is underway, some great training and weight loss suggestions are given. The information continues with an Ask Denise forum, health tips, and recipe chapters. This genuinely informative and effective program offers a safe regimen that will suit a wide spectrum of levels. Although good cues are given, extra attention should be given to body alignment and proper form when executing deep lunges and some of the more advanced abdominal work. If used with repetition, this one-stop workout can increase muscle tone and cardiovascular fitness.
