Summary: Easy to follow, effective workout
Comment: An excellent workout that I used throughout my pregnancy, up to two days before delivery. As other reviewers have explained, it is broken into several sections so you can do as much or as little as you like. Very easy follow I am aware that FitMama has been criticised for being repetitive - this was a bonus for me as my brain went AWOL during pregnancy. A safe, enjoyable workout that produced a light sweat and I didn't have to think too much about it!

Summary: "Haven't I done this before" or "Boring, boring, boring"
Comment: I have only done the yoga workout, but it's the same basic moves over and over. By the fourth rotation I was looking for a new challenge, but never got it. For someone who's in pretty good shape, or who is use to a diverse workout this DVD won't keep you going.

Summary: best one I tried
Comment: I liked Leisa Hart and appreciated her energy level and bubbly personality. The workout itself was boring as it was VERY repetitive and I kept wanting to change it up a bit.

Summary: Boring workout, even for a beginner
Comment: I got this DVD when I was pregnant with my first two years ago. I only did it a few times before switching over to a different tape. I picked it up again now that I am pregnant with my second, and after two times using it, I think I want to throw it out the window. It's just really boring. She introduces four different sequences and repeats them over and over again with no variation. Once you've done it, you've done it. I want more different exercises to do. I also feel like there isn't enough stretching, which I really need.

My biggest complaint is that there isn't enough instruction. She doesn't say where you should feel a particular exercise or stretch. She isn't specific enough about how to position your arms and legs, feet and hips. And she goes too fast when introducing a new sequence, and I felt like I couldn't figure out how to do it correctly.

For beginners it's not too strenuous, and she keeps reminding you to listen to your body, drink water if you need, take a break if you need it. The main plus is that you can choose between the salsa dancing or the yoga, or if you are at a higher fitness level, you can do both. She also has a section dedicated to labor and delivery prep, including Kegels and abdominal work.

Summary: Very Good Workout
Comment: Very good workout. I should have done it more during my pregnancy, but I took it easy a lot. I would recommend for anyone trying to stay in shape during pregnancy.
