Certified instructor description: Each segment targets one specific area: hips/waist, thighs or buttocks. In less than 25 minutes, you can tone your individual "trouble spot" (or do the complete program to reshape your entire lower body). The first section combines abdominal corework with varied hip-focused exercises. The second is more "power Pilates." It works your inner and outer thighs with scissor kicks, bicycles and "hot potatoes." The buttocks program ranges from simple leg abductions and leg kicks to "double knee kicks" and "sphinx position" moves. As always, Mari's cuing is friendly and easy to follow, but also relentlessly focused on proper form ("technique is everything!"). ©2012.

    Just What You Want |
| Mari has great workout videos. I have used them for years. This one has some difficult sections but for the most part can be used by the older exercise group. It is always difficult to find pilates CDs that we "oldies" can still do. - posted by dee on 3/16/2013 |

    It is an ok video |
| I found the workout a a little boring at times. I like the thighs and glutes part a little more than the other segments. Personally, I prefer her older accelerated total body workout. the DVD is priced well. - posted by Melissa on 2/21/2013 |

    awesome |
| The leg routine is very challenging and I see a difference after three workouts. I feel these more than with lifting weights. I hope she comes out with more lower body workouts. - posted by a on 1/25/2013 |

    New to Pilates |
| I first tried Pilates from watching a video from the on demand feature on my cable. I am 58 and hadn't been able to work out due to a shoulder injury, but was walking 3-4 miles per day. I have been doing this video for a couple of weeks, and like it very much. It is easy to follow and moves at just the right pace. Some of the moves are more challenging, which is good. I like that it isn't too easy, and I can work up to the harder moves. I could feel it working my quads and glutes, as well as my abdominals. It's nice that it is broken up into 3 separate segments so that you can do all, or pick one or two if you're pressed for time. I would definitely recommend this. - posted by Cathy on 11/16/2012 |

    Mari Winsor's Lower Body Pilates |
| I have been doing Pilates for 10 years using the Mari Winsor's Pilates workout. I feel energized and ready for the day after a workout with Mari. This is a great product for anyone wanting to maintain the core and toning muscles. On a scale of 1 to 10 and 10 being the best. This product is a 10. - posted by Stephanie on 10/22/2012 |

    Lower Body Rocks |
| Great video if you are not a senior citizen. While I can do many of the exercises, at 72 years of age completing the series is beyond my ability. I must tell you that I walk 3 miles every day, as well as lift weights. I am slim, trim, and have endless energy. I did find many of the poses too strenuous. I have moderated many of the poses, but would very much like something that I can follow. A video for the senior citizens, please!!!! - posted by Sandra on 7/5/2012 |

    Bun & Thigh Sculpting on steroids |
| I love-love-love Winsor's Bun & Thigh Sculpting. I was hoping that this would be similar...times three. It *sorta-kinda* is...but not. :) Workout #1 is "Slim & Sculpt Hips" but I really found this works the "muffin top" area and waist. It starts gently, in seated cross-legged position, with breathing and stretching. It moves on to side reaches, torso circles, and spinal twists. Then come rolling up and down, ab work on the back and in V-sit (involving the legs , like single leg stretches), and finally on to bridge and then planks. Workout #2 is "Trim & Tone Thighs," and I found this most reminiscent of my old favorite but with some new twists. There is a lot of classic side-lying leg work (kicking forward and back, lifts, circles, tapping toe-to-heel, clam series, inner thighs). Most of these involve variations, like pulses or changing the range of motion. Workout #3 is "Lift & Firm Glute" (yes, apparently we are only lifting and firming just the one "glute" :) which begins with stretches (as each workout does) and then flips to the stomach for heel kicks, leg lifts. I was surprised at the inclusion of (what I consider) back work (superman, swimming). Then you move to all-fours for leg lifts, donkey kicks. There are some new twists on classic moves here (leg lifts to the rear but in a circular motion -- ow! ow!). Then, what I thought was the *most* challenging segment on the whole disc: moves in plank and reverse plank and modified side plank, followed by a final/closing bridge segment. Ouch! I found this dvd much more difficult than B&T (which I can do at any fitness level); this workout required much modification. I would call this one closer to Intermediate in difficulty. - posted by Alison on 5/10/2012 |
