Five 10-minute segments, they all feature a well-designed series of pregnancy-specific exercises (e.g. the on-your-back moves use several pillows so you never have to lie flat). Lizbeth Garcia’s one-on-one cuing is truly inspirational — she’s 36 weeks pregnant but never compromises her form or her technique. The workout includes both standing and matwork sections plus a mix of classic Pilates and Pilates-inspired variations (always shown with optional modifications). Each section focuses on a specific benefit or exercise type (e.g. abdominal strength or flexibility). DVD has a bonus 10-minute post-pregnancy workout. Requires two sets of dumbbells. ©2007. DVD has:
Chapter menus.

    Good Workout |
| I really enjoy this workout and how you can mix and match different 10 minute segments to suite your mood. I usually do the entire program after a two or three mile walk and I feel great after. This has really helped my back pain, which can become quite severe. Also the legs and butt portion is great. Overall I recommend this video but would also add another form of exercise. - posted by Michele on 1/27/2008 |

    Too easy |
| I have to admit I am a bit disappointed. I worked out and ran very regularly prior to my pregnancy and this workout did nothing for me. I felt like I should just sit in front of the TV and do nothing. Felt like a waste of time. The instructor is good, she explains things well I just think it could be a bit more challenging. I felt nothing. I think its way too easy for people who are in good shape. In my opinion, this is a great video if you are not really used to working out or if you are in the very last few weeks of your third trimester and wanting something easy. - posted by Christina on 1/4/2008 |

    A nice challenge -- with a few problems |
| I agree that this is a workout for people who are used to exercising. It's fun to do, and feels really good, especially the stretching at the end! The core section is particularly good -- it's hard to find safe but effective ways to work the abs while pregnant. I'd recommend starting this video some time in the beginning of your third trimester (before then, there's really no point in specialty pregnancy videos, when low impact aerobic and modified easy/intermediate weight videos work just as well.)I have two small issues, though: for one thing, the instructor has a few exercises, especially during the stretch, where you're flat on your back. That's really uncomfortable for me; it's hard for me to breathe. Another thing that bugs me: twice during the core exercise, the instructor says to "use your Kegel muscles and your pelvic floor to help you." - posted by Anne on 10/4/2007 |

    Thank You LizBeth! |
| Finally there is a pregnancy workout where I actually feel like I have accomplished something afterwards. I have always been an avid exerciser and I have been so disappointed with other pregnancy workouts because they are soooooo boring and afterwards you feel like you have not done anything. Thank you LizBeth for coming up with a workout for those of us that are familiar with exercising. I think so many of the other pregnancy workouts out there are designed for women who have never exercised and are just beginning to exercise, I guess that is why I found those so boring. - posted by De on 8/14/2007 |
