Rosemary Conley - 7 Day Slim Down (DVD 2002)

I broke my leg nearly a year ago & due to complications I have been on crutches ever since. I'm not able to drive to a gym (& find all that stuff mind numbingly boring!) so got this DVD to try & do something at home. I was very pleasantly surprised. The exercises are very skillfully devised so that there really is something for everyone - even the most unfit person with a broken leg!! I went on to buy some other Rosemary Conley DVDs & rotate them for daily exercise routines. I hate exercise, but this DVD is pretty good fun! More like dancing around in the privacy of my own living room. I've even got my own weights now, to up the work level a bit :-)

An excellent DVD, user friendly with a clear navigation menu which allows you to return to different sections without a long search. I like how it's programme caters for people of all levels of fitness and weight. It incorporates a 7 day workout programme and circuit training session with a healthy low fat diet. The exercise programme is varied, alternating body toning exercises and fat burning exercise with clear instructions throughout and advising to work at a level which suits you. I like doing the combination of a different daily exercise routine followed by the circuit training which gives a good workout in around 35 minutes.

The great thing is that you can do this in your own home and in your own time, although you do need to make a daily commitment to both the exercise regime and the low fat diet if you want to lose weight.

I also like the 7 day menu planner which gives some really good tips on how to make a low fat diet nutritious, tasty and filling.


This DVD is excellent for anyone who wants to lose weight and feel fitter - it really works and is helping me to lose some excess weight. I particularly like the success stories as they help to spur you on.
