Certified instructor description: An easy-to-follow program that blends light dumbbell toning into mostly walking-style cardio. It’s a time-efficient format that burns fat as it also builds lean muscle (which helps boost your day-to-day metabolism). This high-energy program is led by Debra Mazda, a plus-size fitness expert who went from 310 to 160 pounds (so she has a personal understanding of your weight-loss challenges). The aerobics are basic, but varied — marches, walks and kicks intermixed with occasional cha chas and side steps. The toning is incorporated right into the cardio (e.g. a simple bicep curl during a march). The workout ends with all-standing abwork. Requires 1 to 5 lb. dumbbells. ©2008. DVD has: 4 premixes (16 to 66 min. alternate workouts).

ShapelyGirl: Let's Get Moving! 2

Love Workout
Debra is a great motivator.This is a good workout for people of all sizes. - posted by Lena on 1/26/2012
Great beginners workout
I've now done this workout several times and I STILL can't get through all the strength training exercises without a break! Debra keeps you moving in this video with lower body easy movements while challenging your upper body strength with 3 pound weights. I sweat, I get breathless, and my muscles BURN! The music keeps you moving (although I prefer songs I know) and the workout is over in no time. The lower body strength training which includes squats and lunges will fatigue the muscle and give you results. The core exercises aren't too challenging but I don't use this video as an intermediate exerciser's choice. The stretching is okay but a bit short. Certainly if you are 40+ pounds overweight and haven't exercised in a while, this video is a great start. I'm 50 years old, exercised regularly in my 20s and 30s and then put on weight with my pregnancies. I know I'm getting a good workout because I'm sweating, physically tired in the evenings, and a little sore the next day. - posted by Jody on 1/11/2012
My favorite tape
I have all of the Shapely Girl series but this one is my favorite, combining cardio with weights. At 61 years I want toning and cardio that are within my ability and not too difficult. I use 5 pound weights and feel I get a great workout with this video at least twice a week in rotation with the others and some Leslie Sansone walking videos. It is a simple routine that is appealing to older or larger exercisers. More, Debra, Please! - posted by Sweetie Girl on 9/22/2011
Shapely Girl 2
As I am a 60 year old and at least 85 pounds overweight, Debra Mazda has just what I need. Not hard, but doable. I can do all the moves, and it does make me sweat. And with the added weights in this one, my arms even get a workout! And I like the fact that her girls are not the skinny minnies most videos are. - posted by Gena on 9/22/2011
Light weight work.
Content is good but it skips from time to time. - posted by Susan on 8/25/2011
loved this!
I have 2 of hers already, but I wanted this one, to do the workout with weights. So far, I've done the pre-mixed routine (weights workout). I was surprised how much it made me sweat, and with only 2# squishy balls for weights! I didn't think light weights + cardio would make me work so hard! I really love her 'circle time' with her workout partners as well. This one is good....get it!! - posted by vanessa on 7/9/2011
Good Addition to My Collection
This is my first Shapely Girl video, and I'm pleased. I needed something which would incorporate weights, where the cueing was easy to follow, and where I felt I could get a low impact cardiac workout as well. This video met those criteria. Since I've been rotating it with a number of other videos and tapes, it is less important to me that the background and music are not that stimulating. One minor issue that I've never experienced before with a Collage Video product. When I first put it in the DVD player, it was "rejected" because it was dirty...thankfully, cleaning it with a soft cloth eliminated the problem. - posted by ADnj on 4/14/2011
Work it Girl!
Oh my gosh Debra is so motivating - feels like someone is in the trenches with me, and is willing and patient while I hit my stride. - posted by Jody on 4/7/2011
Ahhhh! My Upper Body Muscles Are Burning!
I just completed this workout and I feel it all over my body. It was so nice to see everyday girls working out. Debra is like an encouraging friend cheering you on. This DVD has 4 segments you can do the weights or the cardio or do both. She also has a extra long segment where you can do the work out twice. There is a bonus cardio segment if you felt that you didn't get enough of it during the workout. I wish the lower body segment for the hips, thighs, and legs was longer. She was all business in this video whereas Let's Get Moving 1 was fun. Overall, it was a good workout and I will keep this in my rotation. - posted by Andrea on 3/16/2011
Better than expected; good workout
I'm not a fitness buff, but I exercise pretty regularly. I wasn't sure that this would really be a good workout, but it was GREAT! You can easily modify it to make it harder (or easier) and she works on toning your whole body plus the cardio. - posted by Dana on 3/13/2011

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
Premixes
X
These are alternate workouts created by the manufacturer. They use the same content as the main program (i.e. the very same video footage). But the sections are re-edited into pre-made alternative workouts that you select from a menu. These are often condensed versions of the main workout.
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.
