5 Stars Great overall pregnancy workout!
I ordered these DVDs near the end of my 1st trimester. I am a long time gym junkie, but I wanted a workout that would keep me in shape throughout my pregnancy without being too strenuous. So many of the DVDs I saw were yoga only, and I knew I wanted some aerobics and weight lifting, too. These DVDs give you all of it! Plus, there is great variety of workouts to keep you motivated. 2 aerobic/weight lifting workouts & 1 yoga workout per DVD. Also, you get a DVD for after baby. Lindsay is not always in perfect form and the set/recording is not the best I’ve seen, BUT she works every part of your body so that you know you’re getting a great workout. If you like interval training (aerobics w/weight training) or are looking for more than just yoga - this is the workout for you!

5 Stars Great DVDS
I purchased this set when I was 6 weeks along in my second pregnancy. I used them every morning thoughout my pregnancy. I liked that I wasn’t doing the same routine every day for 9 months. The change each Trimester was nice and kept me motivated. The only thing I would have liked to have been different is that it would have been nice to have had a mother-to-be in each workout following along with Lindsay.

5 Stars Great variety
I loved this set of workout DVDs. There is a lot of variety, and the exercises are appropriate for all stages of your pregnancy and for the post partum stages of getting back into shape. The workouts are to the point, and you accomplish a lot in a minimal amount of time. The variety helps prevent boredom. Highly recommend to any busy mom or mom-to-be.

1 Star Wouldn’t recommend
I exercise on a daily basis and had been working out using the FIRM DVDs for quite some time. I purchased the set once I found out I was expecting. I really did not enjoy the format. The instructor annoyed me. I haven’t used the DVD set because of the format and instructor.

4 Stars Good workout for women who work
I order this series of 4 videos at the very beginning of my second trimeseter and did the first trimester video for a week or two and liked it very much. It gets you moving but not so much that you are winded or exhausted after ward. I have moved onto the second trimester video and I like that as well. When I come home from work, I’m tired and the thought of excercising is the last thing on my mind, but when I remind myself that the video is only 25 minutes it gives me the extra motivation to pop it in and work out. I wind up doing the full 25 minutes of yoga afterward too and I feel more energized after doing both. It gives me a second wind. The only thing I dont like about the video is she tends to move a bit quickly for me, but I wasnt in terrific shape when I started the series. Thats the other thing I like, that I jumped into doing the videos after a VERY lazy first trimester and it wasnt difficult at all. I like Lindsay, she is cute but not overly so and she is dressed like I am at home - in comfortable workout gear - not cropped sportsbra and shorts which would just remind me that I am not going to have a flat tummy for some time! The images of the pregnant women doing the workout are a bit tiny for me and I’d like to see her doing the workout side by

4 Stars A Good Choice
I am currently in my second trimester and have been using this video workout for two months. There are two different workouts and a yoga session. The first work out is about 25 minutes long and I have not yet tried the second as the first is challenging enough to keep me doing it. You will need two sets of dumbbells. Lindsay has three on the video but only uses two, 3 lb. and 8 lb. I have been using 3 lb. and 5 lb. There are plenty of exercises for back and arms as well a variety of squats and movements for the legs. The workout has kept me in shape and, I believe, prepared my back to support the extra weight I have been gaining. The yoga is a nice cool down or good stretch and tension reliever, but as a novice to yoga I find some of the breathing only parts a tad boring. I recommend the yoga mat. One is used in the video and with out it my feet tend to slide on a couple of the poses.

There are a couple of negatives about this video. Lindsay is not pregnant and watching her smiling and bouncing while you sweat can be annoying. Occasionally a picture in picture box appears with a woman early in her second trimester doing the workout, but the box is small and pixels out on a large HD TV. The instruction is usually clear and concise. However, at one point Lindsay intructs us to throw in a pelvic tilt without any explanation. I have yet to figure out what she is doing, if anything, as it is not visible on the video. She also intructs us to do a Kegel now and then, but I knew what those were. The music is awful. Once I learned the rountine I simply killed the sound and played my own music which helped immensely with my energy level in getting through the whole workout.

Over all I would choose this video again. I feel like I get a good workout with out feeling like I am overly straining.

4 Stars A Fun and Versatile Prenatal Workout
I really enjoy doing this workout. The separate 20 minute yoga section makes a great cooldown. I also do the yoga on the days when my muscles are recovering from a more intense workout. This video is fun and while it is not too strenuous, I feel like I have gotten a good workout.
