Certified instructor description: A compact stability ball program designed to work your “Butt, Legs and Tummy.” Much less intense than Karen’s typical videos, it’s a solid introduction to ball exercises — the ball not only cushions your body but it also provides uniquely effective workout positions (and it’s just plain fun). After a lively bouncing-on-the-ball warm-up, you’ll progress into a varied series of non-stop strengthening and stabilization routines. Throughout, Karen’s usual precise cuing and friendly attitude will keep you motivated. ©2001. DVD has: Chapter menus.

Karen Voight's BLT Ball Workout

It Worked for Me!
I am so happy with this workout. I admit that I am overweight and am considered a beginner to fitness and this workout works for me. Each time I do it I feel a burn in my abs and my butt like no other toning workout I’ve tried does for me. I am so grateful for this workout. I gotta give it 5 stars! - posted by Emily on 6/20/2010
Should have returned it
I am sorry to say that I really wish I had returned this when I had the chance. I tried to like it. Maybe ball workouts aren't for me. I don't know. All I do know is that I never feel anything when I do this workout. And I'm a beginner at ball workouts. - posted by Angie on 6/10/2009
Waste of Time
I always love Karen and have many of her videos. This is definitley for beginners. The easiest Karen video I have ever done and the most disappointing. It does not contain enough repetition for your abs, legs, or butt to be effective. Not enough reps and not enough different moves. You can have a short video that is effective in a short amount of time, but this is not one of them. Very disappointed in her for putting this video out. This is not her caliber of videos. - posted by SHELLY on 5/14/2009
Fun & Good For You
I like this workout - I find the colors of the set & the outfits bright & cheery and the music makes me happy. I can do all of the moves without struggling or feeling like an idiot. Since I really enjoy the workout, I'm more prone to pulling it off the shelf and, because It is short & sweet, I can actually find time to use it quite often. I'm glad that it isn't an hour-long hard-core puke in a bucket DVD. An easier workout that I will actually use is much more beneficial for me than a killer workout that I dread and make excuses not to do! - posted by Raina on 6/21/2008
Disappointing
I found this workout to short and the ab section was a joke. This may be good for beginners but for someone who works out on a regular basis, save your money. There is only one ball workout that is excellent in my opinion and really does a number on your abs and that is Cathe, core max. - posted by Barb on 1/21/2008
Short but sweet
This is a good short workout. But the stretch at the end of the best part. - posted by marsha on 1/5/2008

I had a ball!
This workout is so much fun! I'm new to ball workouts, so this was perfect for me. I'm very tight so the stretches felt great without being too difficult. I loved the abs, back and glute sections. With most workouts I find myself looking at the clock. With this workout the time flew by, I wish it were longer. Yesterday I ran 5 miles and then I did Slim and Lean. I did not feel like working out as intensely today so I did the cardio portion of Burn and Firm and the BLT. Later I'll take the dog for a walk and call it a day. - posted by Jill on 10/22/2006
GOOD, QUICK, EFFECTIVE!
BLT was my first workout experience on the ball. Karen made it so easy to follow along and is such an excellent cuer the way she competently explains how to make every move count. You don't think the moves are doing much since the workout progresses so quickly, but I was SO sore the next two days after I did it! I like to workout to another KAREN workout, FIRM workout, CATHE workout, or a 4-mile walk/run previously to doing this workout. It really helps me unwind and stretch out when I'm done. One final comment: Kathy (Karen's partner) doesn't seem to annoy me as much in this video as she did in Burn & Firm! GREAT WORKOUT ON THE BALL! - posted by RACHEL on 8/31/2005
Nice add-on
This is one of Karen's shortest and easiest videos, great as an add-on or as an easy/short-day workout. I know Karen reads her reviews, so I'm asking for a longer, tougher total-body version of this workout. Weight or band work or Pilates work on the ball would be great. - posted by Beth Walker on 8/26/2005
Great Add-On Workout
Karen provided a fun and effective workout. It is short but to the point. I did this after Tamilee Cardio blast and the next day I felt it. Great ab and back workout. Also quick leg workout but thorough. No wasted time. These exercises are great to vary along with your tough Cathe lower body toning or The Firm lower body. Your body needs to do different things to feel them in different areas. And to keep your interest level high. - posted by na on 7/13/2005

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.

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.
