'fat-to-firm fitness ball workout for dummies' is the title according to the front cover of the dvd, however, the label on the dvd itself says 'stability ball workout for dummies'.

this workout goes through 15 different exercises that you can do with your stability ball for your lower body, upper body
and abs. exercises include lunges, side leg lifts, pelvic lifts, crunches, push-ups, seated overhead press/bicep curl/tricep extension/chest fly among others.
the seated exercises use 2 sets of dumbells.

good workout for a beginning exerciser and those new to using a stability ball.

liz gives pointers but i had to watch the screen to see exactly what she was doing and how fast she was doing it. more cueing would have been nice so real newbies should preview the workout before doing it.

however
there is a nice break between exercises so that you can see what is coming up and get into position for it.

each chapter is short as not much time is spent on each exercise. liz does only 2 sets of 8 reps for each exercise.

parts of the music that i noticed were good. the instructor was pleasant.

workout includes a warm-up and cooldown. 45 mins long. some nice light exercise.
