Good excercises, bad production quality
The exercises in this video are good, and the instructors clearly enjoy working out with their babies. However, the production quality is very low (like it was filmed using a low quality VHS video camera), and worst of all I can't play this DVD on my computer (unlike every other DVD I own). Since my computer is in the room where I work out and I don't have a TV/DVD player in that room, and there isn't room to work out in the living room where we have our DVD player, this is a big disappointment for me. Don't buy this DVD if you plan to watch it on your computer.

just what I wanted and needed
I needed a workout that wouldn't take a lot of motivation to do. I have found that, post baby, if I have to psych myself up to do a workout (even a treadmill), I don't do it. This DVD starts out with on the floor stretches that let you mentally warm up. The workout covers all of the major muscle groups, and when you are done you feel good. There's nothing fancy, just the basic moves that we all know and love. My 25 pound 14 month old makes the lifting exercises quite challenging, I am happy to do 5 or 10 reps right now and I will move up from there. I like that they devote a few minutes to kegels since we all just love those. I never did them before, but since they stuck them in the middle of the workout, it is a good time to sit and play with my little one. I like that the music is just background type so that you choose the pace and number of reps you want to do. You don't have to follow the instructors exactly. I like that one of the ladies talks some during the workout, because sometimes I get caught up in doing a move and forget to play with my baby. They do use a stepper at one point, but I just walk around the room looking at pictures with my daughter during that. The bonus at the end is the Hawaiian song they sing while showing babies playing. Even if my daughter skips out on the workout portion, she always comes around to watch this part in my lap. I got this DVD about 2 weeks ago, and I do it 3 times a week right now, and that is plenty. I will work up my reps and hope to do it everyday at some point.

Cheesy but a lot of fun!
After reading the reviews, I decided to order it. I wasnt looking for something vigorous, just something to involve my 2 year old toddler while getting a decent workout. <

>It was really fun, my son had a blast. Of course, it took him a few minutes "get" it but eventually he started playing along. The workout itself is fairly easy if you do it without the baby, but if you do it WITH.. its a pretty good session. I used my 2 year old (33lbs) on as many as I could and I worked up a damn good sweat. The only thing that is annoying is that one of the girls talks over the whole time about this and that... but I just tuned her out. <

>If you can get over the cheesy quality of the video and dont take this as a real serious, get down and dirty workout, then I think you'll be really pleased with this.
