Product Reviews

(1 stars) - I had higher expectations
I was totally disappointed with this dvd - the quality was poor and the delivery unmotivating. It made a lot of gurgling noises when i first put it in the dvd player - had to take it in and out twice to get it to read. This DVD is odd compared to all the other exercise dvd's I own. I'm supposed to just watch what these ladies do and follow along for the most part with little or no explanation/direction. In most of the exercises, it is no more than what you would do with a free weight - why the kettlebell??

The over emphasized breathing with otherwise silence is so annoying - no counting the reps - no music as background - just loud breathing into the mic. And, just as annoying are the delays between each exercise to prompt each one with a title screen - they are too long and unnecessary.

I don't believe i can return a DVD once viewed - but i won't be using this one much - if at all. A stupid purchase choice and waste of my money.

(5 stars) - I NEED MORE STARS
I have had the Kettlebell Goddess Workout for several years along with two other Andrea Du Cane videos. All are excellent. If you are a beginner, I recommend From Russia with Tough Love book/video by Pavel Tsatsouline which goes through basic moves and emphasises correct form and alignment. Also note, one of the individuals featured in the Goddess Workout is Andrea's daughter. So Ms. Du Cane has had a kid and also has abs to die for!

As for the "correct weight" of kettlebell to start with -- remember this is dynamic, not static, weight lifting. I started with two 4 kb (about 9 lbs) kettlebells about 8 years ago. I have slowly progressed to 6, 8, and 12 kb kettlebells. I am a 62 yr old female.

Start off slow. You may find that the smaller weights are plenty for you. ENJOY!!!

(4 stars) - tough workout!
It would be nice if there was a segment on how to choose the right weight kettlebell. I found elsewhere, that the "average" woman should start with a 8kg ball (around 18 lbs.!) She does teach a wide range of exercises, which is great.

(5 stars) - ASA's Mom
Wow! This is the DVD to try if you are serious about getting in shape and don't have a lot of time to devote to working out. Each session is about 15-20 minutes long. I have been doing it 5-7 times a week, for 6 weeks now and WOW! What a difference. My cloths fit so much better, I have lost nearly 10 pounds and feel so much better! It is like having your own personal trainer right there wtih you, none of the fru-fru stuff that you find on other DVD's, she is stright to it, and you go! By far the best kettlebell work out I have ever done.

(5 stars) - Exactly the same as from DragonDoor
This is exactly the same DVD, with the convenience of ordering through Amazon and super-saver shipping. I love the DVD - the menus are easy to navigate and the workouts are wonderful. There's complete workouts as well as individual exercises so you can build your own workout. In addition, this DVD is great for beginners to advanced kettlebell users - the instructors do different variations/positions and you can follow the one you want (ex. self-assist for beginners, one or two handed grips, or two kettlebells). Definitely worth the money!
