Cindy Crawford: A New Dimension [DVD]
H**Y
Three great exercise programmes on 1 video/DVD
I bought this as a video after my son was born 11 years ago to get back into shape. I have recently repurchased it on DVD because my video is getting worn out. I love it because it lets you build up your fitness gradually if you have had a bit of a break from exercise and then you can choose which workout to do depending on the time available. It works well because alot of the exercises feel quite gentle but you feel you are really stretching and toning at the same time. You really notice the difference in your body shape within a couple of weeks if you do the exercises regularly, particularly legs and bum. It is easy to follow and does not make you feel inadequate if you cannot keep up, most of the exercises you can do at your own pace without having to keep up with Cindy and Kathy.When my son was small he used to join in with me, now he thinks I look stupid but I don't care because the routines help me to feel good and look good.

Perfect!
This is the perfect workout. They've broken it down in to three sections which could be applied to a new mother, someone new to exercise or someone wanting to get back into shape.It is a balanced approach to exercise; the aim is to be able to eventually do Workout C which is tough! Workout A and B are short and work well if you are time restricted. The music is calming, the workout routines are not vigorous but are very effective. The cardio has you working up a sweat and the toning is very effective (you'll feel it the next day!).Cindy Crawford is enjoyable to watch as she can laugh at herself and very much appreciates how every single one of us goes through times in our life where the very last thing we want to be doing is another lunge or another sit up!I would definitely recommend this workout dvd because it doesn't leave you at the end of the workout feeling like you'll never do that again! You will keep using the workout whether on it's own or with other workout dvds.Enjoy!

Surprisingly impressive!
Now I get easily irritated by instructors but this was fantastic! Cindy is very normal and not stupidly perfect or fake-tanned and the instructor is really lovely. As an ex-dancer I've done a lot of varied training and this is completely professional. Clearly and safely explained, it covers the whole body almost without you realising it!I haven't just had a baby but post-natal workouts are often very good for toning the body and this is no exception - it's not a heavy cardio DVD but you do sweat. I got a fantastic body in a few weeks - all over! I highly reccomend this, particularly if, like me, you like a relaxing workout in the morning (you can choose from a 12-minute, 30-minute and 45-minute routine). Very satisfying!

Suberb!
I had Cindy's The Next Challenge in 1990's and it was brilliant. This one is just as good, but now more tailored to my current capabilities, 20 years on. I haven't had children (it is party aimed at new Mums), but it has an easy (10 mins), medium (15) and serious workout (40) to mix and match at your own level. Cindy is gorgeous, glamorous and unselfconscious - everything about the DVD: music, settings (panoramic ocean and swish gym), variety of exercise and delivery are aspirational. There's no one giggling, shouting at you, patronising you or telling you 'you're lookin' good...' (PS avoid Davina McCall's). It's a top-quality production and one I know I'll look forward to using day-in, day-out for months (like TNC). Watch it all the way through to soak up the feel-good factor before you even get started!

Quite tame
I've previously enjoyed Cindy's workout tapes and really wanted to replace an old tape with a DVD - the march of technology - and rather than go with my original plan decided to get a newer DVD...unfortunately it is more geared towards a new mum so wasn't what I expected. I was a little disappointed but there are some really good tips and exercises and I can certainly see the benefit for a new mum - the workout is broken down so that you can find time to do shorter routines to fit around a new baby.

Gentle, but can feel the difference
The DVD was recommended to me by a colleague of mine who used it to build her strength up back after a surgery. I like it. I am not an athletic person and I find the level of fitness in this DVD suits my needs. I think anyone who is more advanced in their fitness would find the workouts very easy. I also like that there is no additional "motivation" speeches or chat that I find annoying in other fitness DVDs. There is gentle music in the background and scenes change between Cindy working out on the beach to her working out in a house. I don't find this distracting either; although her outfit on the beach makes me laugh every time. Although, both Cindy and her trainer use equipment in some of the exercises, I don't use it and come up with an alternative exercise.A New Dimension DVD has three workouts: Workout A (about 12 minutes); Workout B (about 16 minutes) and Workout C (about 40 minutes); plus an Introduction.Workout A mainly contains stretching with some lunges, squats, pliés, kegels, abs and pelvic tilts. No equipment.Workout B has Warm Up, Cardio and Cool Down. The warm up includes stretches (you will need a chair for stretches); side steps, knee lifts, pliés and more stretches. The main workout is cardio (more on a gentle side, but still gets your hear pumping): marches, knee up/overs, back crossovers, squats, push ups and two count crunches. Then cool down.Workout C also is divided into three sections: Warm up; Cardio and Cool Down, but focuses longer on each section. You will need a chair for stretches and weights, if you would like to use those.

I love it. I like all her exercise DVDs
I used Cindy Crawford routines many years ago. I bought this one to get me back into exercise. I love it. I like all her exercise DVDs. This particular one is short, gentle and can be done in a jiffy when you have a few moments to spare.

Great Video; Perfect for Easing into Fitness
Thank you, thank you, thank you to the vendor who shipped this item quickly with amazing integrity. The DVD arrived in perfect condition with no scratches.As for the video, it is great for anyone who needs to get back into an exercise regimen. Everything about the video is patient, attainable, relatable, and comforting to the mind, body, and spirit. In my 20s and 30s I could effortlessly work out to Cindy and Radu's Next Challenge and I use to workout faithfully every morning. In my own right I had a supermodel's body at 5'4 and 145 lbs. I had a lean athletic body. Then life happened, my day began to feel less within my control as meetings began early and ran very late into the evenings. When everything about my day became filled with asap tasks and results all I wanted to do was sleep off the clock to refuel for the next business day. Now 18 years later, 76 pounds overweight with a new mild medical diagnosis, I mourn for the woman that I was. However today brings new hope. I listened to all of Cindy's advice to watch the video first, do the first video for two weeks to build confidence and develop a routine, and then proceed to the other workouts. I plan to keep at it for my physical health and well being. Even if one does the 10 minute workout because you are short on time, it helps stretch out your muscles if you are hunched over a computer at your desk all day. Please reproduce great videos like this. A lot of people could benefit. Thanks.

Buenos ejercicios para mantenerte en forma
Es lo que esperaba. Tengo otros 2 dvds de Cindy Crawford y viene a ser la misma estructura. 3 tablas de ejercicios de unos 10', 20' y 40' con música agradable y ejercicios fáciles de seguir que si los haces diariamente dependiendo del tiempo que tengas te mantienen en forma

Extra
Tous les DVD de Cindy Crawford Sont de tres grandes qualités. ils ont agréables à suivre, et efficaces en terme de résultats. Ce DVD est le plus facile de tous ces DVD car fait après sa grossesse. il est donc le plus sympa à suivre. Et je le recommande à toutes celles qui veulent commencer à faire du sport chez elle. Les cours sont présentés par Cindy et son coach dans les endroit de rêve. Ca motive les séances...

おすすめです☆
少し古いDVDなので、悩みましたが、評価が良かったので、購入。みなさんの評価どうり、今でもあまり古さを感じないし、エクササイズのプログラムもとてもいいです☆使われている音楽もとても落ち着けるものでリラックスできるし、視覚的にも、スタジオだけで撮られたものと違い、楽しめるものです。私は、Cのエクササイズが好きでよくしていますが、体を万遍なく鍛えられるし、それほどハードではないですが、かといってラクでもなく丁度いい感じ。これからもずっとお世話になるつもりです。
