Your Best Body: Abs & More

I like the exercises in this video as a change of pace from traditional crunches. I find the stabilization exercises very effective. When I do this tape, I tack parts of it on to the end of other workouts. I usually do parts 1&2 together, and parts 3 and 4 separately. I really like sections 1, 2, and 3. However, I find some of the exercises in the fourth section awkward; namely the part where you are on your side with your body raised up at an angle and you are using your abs to stabilize yourself, and then you twist your upper body to face the floor. I'm sure I find these moves awkward because I'm not very good at them yet! Something to work at! I do recommend this tape, but you will need to work up slowly and pay close attention to form. It is easy to cheat on some of the moves. Keli acknowledges this, and describes and demonstrates proper form in detail. Even if you consider yourself an advanced exerciser with strong abdominal muscles, you will be humbled by section 4.

Instructor Comments:
Keli's form is perfect, and her cueing is very clear. She is very inspiring. She encourages you, but not in an aggressive way.
