Basic Ab Workout for Dummies |
  Love it |
| This is a great workout because you develop habits on proper form as opposed to going through the motions in a fast way but not feeling it.With this workout you feel it. Work it. - posted by Luz on 12/31/2007 |

| My husband and I Love this workout! |
| Will teach you proper form, while giving you a challenge. I am seeing results after 2wks. Controlled movements,(not slow)that work every part of your abs. This is really a nice ab workout with a nice flow. - posted by C.M on 11/7/2007 |

| Everyone should know about this DVD! |
| It's real hard to say I love an ab workout. I love The Firm and did their ab workouts but I never really felt they were effective.I kind of thought maybe I wasn't doing them correctly or something, because I just didn't see the results. I didn't even feel sore.I bought Gay's workout and wow! It is a longer workout than most but I see results which makes it worth it. Gay's guidence makes a big difference. I really can say, I can do a crunch correctly! Gay has helped me get the most out of The Firm Ab workouts too! But this is my favorite! - posted by Becky on 8/19/2004 |

| This is one of the best ab workouts out there... |
| I do the Firm videos, Karen Voight, Taebo, Chizel It, etc. But if you do this basic, but results effective workout you will see your abdominal area SHRINK. The reason I love this ab workout is because Gay concentrates on FORM. Which is crucial in doing ab work correctly. You dollar is well spent on this ab workout. - posted by Linda, Chicago, IL on 5/6/2004 |

| Okay but Long and Kinda Boring |
| I do like the instructor but I find doing 20 reps of 10 different ab exercises a bit much. That's 200 reps! I like to incorporate ab work into my regular workout, ie. like on The Firm tapes where they might have approx 5-10 minutes of ab work. This is almost 30 minutes, which makes it too long to add onto an hour workout (at least for me!) I've also heard that any ab work over 10 minutes at a time is not recommended. I wish she had shortened it to maybe 15 min. I don't know that I'll do it a lot. - posted by Sandra on 6/18/2003 |

| I absolutely love this tape! |
| I first tried this workout when Shape featured five of the moves from this tape and when I saw results I continued with the tape. I keep seeing results and that's what every woman wants.I just love how the moves are challenging yet fun and easy to do. - posted by Shara Ziegler on 1/31/2003 |

| Great Ab Video |
| There's nothing fancy with this video. What you get is an effective basic ab workout. I highly recommend it. - posted by Crystal on 12/27/2002 |

| It is basic! |
| This video is definately your basic moves! She does 10 exercises, 2 reps each...but very slowly...2 counts up, hold, 2 counts down. Her coaxing you through it, is the key here--since doing this on your own would get real old real fast! I've did it a few times, and my tummy doesn't burn the next day, but I 'll keep at it! - posted by Noi Helmick on 11/25/2002 |

| Great Ab Workout - for Beginner and beyond...... |
| I have this tape and have used it every day for the past month. I see my tummy much flatter and abs much stronger and tighter than before. Gay Gaspar takes you through a nice warm-up and then 10 basic but very effective exercises for your abs. There is also some thorough stretching at the end of the workout. Each exercise is slow and controlled. A moderator interjects little tips throughout and Gay is shown doing easier or more difficult ways to do the exercises. The tape runs about 30 minutes.While I can probably do all of these exercises by myself now without the tape, I still like Gay to guide me through my workout because she helps you do the exercises at the right pace. I never get sick of this tape.Definitely worth getting, especially if you are a beginner and need instructions for ab exercises and/or want a good variety of exercises for a complete workout. - posted by Adrienne on 11/20/2002 |
