Written on May 13, 2008
Denise Austin - Power Yoga Plus The Denise Austin Power Yoga Plus video from Video Action Sports includes a 20-minute power yoga session followed by a 20-minute Pilates sculpting session.
Customer Review: Good workout in my opinion
This tape is a half and half type of workout.The first half is Yoga and is about 20 minutes. She uses the word functional yoga in her description of some of her exercises. The second half is Pilates. During this section it is advised that you use 3-5 pound weights. I find that if I am running low on exercise time, that I can do the Yoga one day and do the Pilates part the next day. The second half is about 20 minutes also. She advises that you rotate this tape with her Pilates tape-Denise Austin’s Mat Workout Based on the Work of J.H.Pilates. I liker her tapes due to her attitude and her personality.
Customer Review: Guys Like it, Too!
I like this tape! My husband and I are seniors who try to keep in excellent shape. The first time we did this routine together, he said it was more for women but after the second time, he realized there’s a lot more to it than first meets the eye and said he’d gotten an excellent work-out.
It’s true that Denise Austin tapes can be tricky to follow at first - her pace zooms! - but by the 3rd or 4th viewing, our muscle memory takes over and that’s no problem. By then, I’m really feeling, “You’re STRONG!” as she encourages us to hold that difficult pose a minute longer. I like her energy.
I gave this one 4 stars instead of 5 because while we do alternate it with tapes from many others, it’s not my favorite Denise Austin routine. I reserve 5 stars for, “Pilates for Every Body,” which is packed with so much variety that it’s super fun + makes us feel as Denise says, “You’ve done something good for your body!”
That said, “Power Yoga Plus” is good, too. Just don’t give up on it too soon: Before long, you’ll be following right along, happy with a pace fast enough to break a good sweat!
