Michelle Dozois' Rockin' Body Cardio Jam |
 Absolutely Love It! |
| I ordered quite a few workout DVDs not too long ago. I still haven't tried all of them out. This was the first one I tried and I haven't quite moved on from it. It is great! I love the music and the cardio routines. I second time I did the video, I had the moves down, so they are not hard to follow. This workout is actually fun and it makes you feel alive and energetic while you are doing it. This all comes from Michelle's personality. She is not bubbly (hate that), but she is very upbeat and makes encouraging remarks throughout the workout. Plus, this is definitely for all levels. You can really go for it or not. I'm very pleased that I tried this one out. It's a must have! - posted by Christine on 5/9/2008 |

 Just can't get into it... |
| I have started this dvd so many times, I can't count, but I just can't get into it at all. I guess I would say it is boring, but not sure why I just can't do it. Hard to rate with the star system on this one. I just don't like it. I prefer step aerobics anyway, and really like her "Your Best Body Circuit" but this one really just doesn't keep my attention at all. I usually get about 10-20 minutes into it, and take it out. It isn't that complex nor hard, just doesn't hold my attention. - posted by Marsha on 5/6/2008 |

| What a fun (and sweaty) workout!! |
| I just did this workout for the first time today and I really liked it! I am an intermediate/advanced exerciser (45 yrs. old) and I my heart rate was right up there from beginning to end. The moves were easy to follow and I certainly appreciated that it was high intensity but could also be low impact for someone like me whose knees are just starting to feel the wear and tear of all my early years of jumping and running on concrete. It was an excellent cardio workout and I enjoy Michele as an instructor - she's motivating and has just the right amount of energy without being annoying! I also feel a connection to her since I too have a son with Autism (she shares her story of her son on the DVD) and understand the struggles that we go through. Good for her that she has found time to have a career sharing her love of fitness and to be a mom to a really special kid. Keep up the good work Michelle!! - posted by Pam on 4/24/2008 |

| A thorough intermediate cardio workout |
| that is not too complicated but not repetitive. I don't understand the comments regarding the cueing. I thought the cueing was fine and I enjoy working out with Michelle. - posted by RuthNYC on 4/3/2008 |

| It was a little boring..... |
| I think Michelle is a great instructor overall. However, for some reason I found this one to be a bit on the boring side. Some of the moves were akward. I was watching the clock by the end. I am a ind/adv. - posted by Christy on 3/31/2008 |

| Love it! |
| I tried this for the first time today and I love it already! I hadn't previewed it so I wasn't 100% perfect on all the steps but I was happily sweating at the end. Yes, there are some spots where the cueing could be better but once you've done it a time or two, that won't matter because the choreography is pretty easy. And being in my 50s now, I appreciate that the higher impact stuff is modifiable if necessary on those days my knees aren't up to a lot of jumping. Thanks Michelle, for another great workout! - posted by Lianne on 3/30/2008 |

| Didn't work for me |
| I tried this workout twice. I just cannot get all the way through it without boredom setting in. I know there are tons of good reviews, but it didn't work for me. - posted by Sandi on 3/30/2008 |

| Fun & Challenging! |
| This is a GREAT cardio workout. Granted, I didn't really do all of the moves as though instructed. In fact, half the time I was just sort of jumping around like a kangroo, but by doing it more and more I'm sure I'll get better. - posted by Suman on 3/29/2008 |

| great workout |
| I loved this! Michelle is very likeable and upbeat. The choregraphy was easy to get without being boring and Michelle cues very well. The music had a nice beat and energy to it even though it wasn't a recognizeable hits remix. - posted by fit2Btied on 3/28/2008 |

| Soooo much fun! |
| I've never really had good results with cardio only dvd's (ala prevention/denise austin), but after doing this one for the first time, it is totally a keeper. It got my heart rate up the entire time and got me sweating! The choreography was great and the thing I really enjoyed was that she actually used 'real' women, normally you see modelesque types. Michelle was encouraging without being cheesy and very motivational. The last segment was more difficult to do on carpeting. I really enjoyed how she incorporated kickboxing moves into the segments (kicks and punches). I'll add this on to my strength training and toning (The Firm express sections). Overall this is totally worth the money and is an awesome addition to any rotation. - posted by Emma on 3/26/2008 |
