Certified instructor description: You get five different segments, each with twelve different exercises. The variety keeps you motivated while the sections let you target your specific goals (the programmable DVD lets you play any segment in any order). The aerobic choices are: kickbox or classic cardio. The toning options are: lower-body/abs or upper-body/abs. There’s also a great yoga stretch — the perfect ending to any of the other workouts. Denise even includes optional progressions within each one-minute sequence (e.g. a march becomes a jog, a step-touch becomes a plyo-hop). You can follow the intensifier or stick with the base move. As always, Denise is peppy and positive. Requires 3 to 5 lb. dumbbells. ©2008. DVD has: Programmable chapters, Close captions, Region 1.

Denise Austin's Get Fit Daily Dozen

Great all around DVD
I really like this! It has a great variety and perfect if you don't have a lot of time! - posted by Kris on 12/15/2011
Workout DVD
It is a great workout for the whole body - posted by Lawanna Wade on 6/10/2011
Great, and versatile
This was my first Denise Austin video and it made me a fan. I love the breakdown of the workouts, and the fact that you can combine them as you like. If I'm going for a heavy day, I do the two cardio segments followed by the lower body, upper body, and finish with the stretch. If I don't have much time or am having a weak day, I can do just a cardio, or just a cardio and one of the strength, whatever suits me. I love having that option, and the fact that each segment is short, so I can always fit in at least one of them, which keeps me in fitness mode even when I'm pressed for time. Her cues are not super good, especially at the end of the cardio kickbox segment, but I found that I could compensate for that once I became familiar with the workout. I do like her reminders to pull up the abs, which is something that I often forget to do. I can see how it might be too easy for super cardio people, but it's just right for me. - posted by kristin on 6/9/2011
Good entry to intermediate workouts
This is the second time I've purchased this DVD (the first one wore out!) and I've done it faithfully each week for over a year now. I combine the weight segments with the cardio to give a 30 minute workout and I've found it to be really effective. This was my step up from some 2-mile walk videos and it was a good entry into the intermediate exercise range. As I've gotten stronger, I've added more intensity and still use this dvd faithfully. It's a keeper. - posted by Helen on 5/1/2011
Nice workout
I love all the segments. I do back to back cardio. - posted by Lucy on 3/18/2011
old school fun
Ms. Austin always motivates, always creates new ways to do the moves we all need to do. I enjoy the 12 minute time frame, I do 12 am and 12 pm, let the fat role off - posted by Teddy on 2/22/2011
THE BEST EXPRESS WORKOUT EVER!
Honestly! Is there no end to Denise's talent? I have not had a bad video yet- and I have many of her DVD's! As a seasoned fitness enthusiast, I can assure you that there is lots of variety in this one. Monday through Friday, a different workout every day(Cardio-Athletic,Cardio-Kick(my favorite),Upper and Lower Body Strength Training,Yoga Stretch and Abs). To say that it is both effective and fun for people who are short on time and high on stress, is an understatement. Really, it's like having your very own personal trainer right there in your home any time of the day or night! And let me just tell you how very genuinely encouraging she is-all with a smile and a wink! Well worth the money-you won't be disappointed! - posted by Laura on 2/10/2011
Quick Quality Workout for Those With Limited Time
Love Denise. I became very comfortable with her "style" by exercising every morning with her when her "Daily Workout" was on TV..She always sees that you exercise every muscle in your body and this video is just what I wanted. Uncomplicated, basic moves that I can easily kick up to high impact or kick it down to low impact as I go through the routine. Denise offers a little bit of everything and the ability to mix it up by "customizing" each day's workout. The 12 minute segments are perfect for me. I can do 1 segment or combine 2 or 3 depending on my schedule. I find myself exercising more because I can do a 12 min segment and feel like I have successfully completed a workout. The background music is not real motivating so I turn on my own music and follow the routine by watching it "muted". - posted by Cindy on 2/7/2011
I can't say enough about this workout!! I love it!!!!!
Buy it is all I have to say. It is well worth it. If you do not like Denise or you are advanced do not buy this video because you will probably find something to complain about. - posted by Jo on 12/7/2010
Very diversified!
I just tried this DVD yesterday, boy, was I pleasantly surprised! I don't agree with a couple of comments that the girl pulling up her pants was a distraction. Just for that, I checked the girl and she did pull up her pants ONLY ONCE. Its not much of a distraction but instead, I thought that Denise's cuing was much better than usual. She's getting better at it. One of her stronger points is that the exercises in this video are really good and efficient. 12 minutes when you don't have a lot of time I think works great. Its really better than doing nothing obviously. Also, I did 2 cardio segments, 1 toning and 1 stretch. It was really good, I was sweating between the 1st and 2nd cardio and fatigued afterward. The stretch was great also. Great job Denise. - posted by LOLA on 11/11/2010

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.
sample time graph
Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
sample time graph
Programmable chapters
X
At the beginning of your workout, you can select the exact segments you want to play that day. The DVD will then play all those segments in the order you chose.
Region 1
X
This DVD is designed for US and Canadian DVD players. It will NOT play in most foreign country players.
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
