Time graph for The Biggest Loser: Power Sculpt
The “Biggest Loser” instructors lead a no-nonsense series of varied muscle toning moves. The cleverly designed DVD keeps you challenged as you get stronger with three progressively more intense premixes (e.g. a 30-minute Level 1 workout or a 50-minute Level 3 program). The exercises are proven classics, but they’ve been “tweaked” to maximize effectiveness (e.g. a small jump added to a squat, a lateral raise blended into a bicep curl). Jillian Michaels begins with a series of body-scupting basics. Then Kim Lyons boosts the intensity with faster-paced “power blasts.” Bob Harper completes the sequence with challenging isometric and plank exercises. The exercisers are contestants from seasons 3 and 4 of the TV show (“if they can do it, so can you”). Requires 3 to 10 lb. dumbbells. ©2007. DVD has: 3 premixes (30-50 min. alternate workouts), Programmable chapters, Music only option, Region 1.

The Biggest Loser: Power Sculpt

Oh boy!
I hurt myself, doing this workout, i was doing this one and the cardio. And I just have to say..MY HATS OFF TO ALL THE PEOPLE ON THE BIGGEST LOSER! I did this workout 3 weeks ago and I'm still having pain in my ribs. I may even have to see my MD. due to still having swelling on one of my ribs. Make sure you get a sports Bra ladies..This is how I hurt myself, wearing an under wire bar.I've done it before with other workouts and this has never happen to me. So be very careful, when doing this and the Cardio workout, don't feel that you have to keep up or use the wgts. And careful with your knees also..I had alot of swelling in my knee. I've been working out from the age of 23yr, and I have none everything, even the gym 4 to 5x a week.This is the 1st time I've hurt like this. I will not be doing this work out again..But I still love the trainers at the biggest loser! - posted by Lily on 3/19/2008
Good overall workout
I've done the part 2 and part 3 workouts a few times, and they really get my heartrate up. I enjoy doing the lower body and upper body moves all at one time. I like the option to only play music during this workout, and wish more dvd's had this option. - posted by Barbara K on 3/4/2008
pretty good workout
This is a pretty decent workout... a common theme throught is that you do move the lower body while working out the upper body with weights... keeps the heart rate up and seems to be effective. Jillian leads level 1 which is 20 minutes long. I don't care for pendulum lunges so just do backward lunges during this section. Good upper body workout and a good sun salutation section. Kim does level 2 and it is 10 minutes long. She leads great pushup and abs workouts. Bob does level 3 and it is also 10 minutes. Very good moves. Will have you sweating throughout. I like to mix up the order and do level 3, then level 2 and level 1 last. Don't particularly care for the floor stretches as cooldown. Overall good - I use it a couple of times a week. - posted by Lois on 2/28/2008
just okay
didnt like how julien seemed to be picking all the time at julie calling here poodle, ghetto booty and stuff, seemed rude, okay workout bobs was the best, just so so, compared to the other biggest loser dvds - posted by angela on 2/25/2008
love this DVD
This is a great workout!! makes you sweat and there are alot of tough moves here, with planks and push ups, etc. A good variety! highly recommended. - posted by Kimber on 2/13/2008
Challenging workout
This is a great weight lifting workout which will work all your muscles. Jillian's section is 20 mins, Bob and Kim's sections are 10 mins each. Not enough abs workout but still you'll get a good sweat. All 3 sections have push-ups. - posted by Camilla on 2/11/2008
Great Workout!
I love this workout! I usually do The Firm, and I have to admit, the first time I did this workout it drove me nuts. I couldn't understand why they didn't go back and edit the mistakes out. However, once I got past that and didn't worry about the direction the contestants were going in (because it doesn't really matter) I found I got an EXCELLENT workout. I'm finding I can actually push myself harder on the actual moves this way (thus getting a better workout) than when I spend time worrying if I'm doing the choreography the right way. I highly recommend this workout! - posted by Jodi on 1/30/2008
Love the Biggest Loser!
I did this video the other morning, and it made me sweat! This is a great sculpting video that raises your heart rate as well with a lot of 4-limb movements. I did all of the segments in one workout and felt challenged, but not to the point where I was wiped out! I felt the sculpting was much better in this video than in the Biggest Loser 2 video (but I love that video too!) - posted by Aimee on 1/26/2008
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.
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.
Music only option
X
This feature allows you to play only the music, without any cuing (after you’ve learned the movements and you just want to do the workout without listening to the instruction).
