Before pregnancy I was working out 3-4 times per week with the Jennifer Kries pilates DVDs (which are great by the way) and after becoming pregnant, purchased this one to continue my exercise routine. I was SO disappointed in this one. It is achingly slow. Doing this video is like being in a trance state. In addition, between each exercise there's about a minute of nothing- just music and "slo-mo" footage of misc body parts moving, which I can't stand. I bought it because it looked serious- I didn't want any cheerleader-type perkily bouncing around, but I didn't want to be bored either! What a waste of $30.00 too- WAY overpriced- the production is cheesy also.
