Love this DVD; Kathy really works your butt. And she not as annoying as Denise Austin.

The title is Tummy Trimmers but this dvd isn’t just about abs. There’s also a lot for the lower back too. It’s a true core workout. I think this dvd is most effective if you use it as a stand-alone abs/core workout and combine at least three of the workouts together. My favorites are Core Abs, Boot Camp Abs and Stability Ball Abs. There are a lot of crunches but enough unique moves to keep my interest. This is my only Kathy Smith dvd and I think her coaching is motivating without being too chirpy or overly hyper. I also like that the exercisers come in all shapes, sizes and ages.

This DVD includes 5 routines that are fun and easy to follow you almost don’t realize you’re really working you abs. It’s not just crunches and Kathy Smith includes unique routines that can either be done separately every day of the week or you can use all of them in one session for a full 50-minute ab workout! The program provides enough variety and challenge that you are sure to improve your core strength and toning.

Here’s the line-up, each one is 10 minutes:

Standing Abs

Core Abs

Boot Camp Abs

Stability Ball Abs

Pilates Mat Abs

I especially like the standing abs and stability ball routines. I alternate throughout the week with my other workout routines (cardio, weight training, and yoga) and these are excellent additions to my full body workouts.
