Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Exercisers in search of a basic introduction to cardiovascular fitness will find a straightforward, honest-to-goodness beginner's layout in Denise Austin: Xtralite, Beginner's Aerobics. Austin's simple choreography and enthusiasm create an encouraging and approachable workout that can have real results if done frequently (at least three times a week). This half-hour session includes five minutes of warm-up, 20 minutes of aerobic exercise, and a five- minute cool down. In addition to being an incredibly time-savvy program, this workout illustrates a perfect example of gradually increasing intensity that will aid participants in reaching target heart rate range (not to mention staving off injuries). Safety is central throughout this session as lower back isolations and stretching play a key role in all phases of this workout. The movements within the aerobic portion are easy to follow and incorporate both the upper and lower body through choreography that lengthens and extends the torso and legs. Familiar steps like the grapevine, box step, and mambo are presented as singular moves without combining them or creating routines. This proves to be an accessible and simple approach to learning the basic format for any aerobic class. The music is not very motivational here, but Austin captures the true essence of a beginner's format both effectively and enthusiastically. This is a great place to begin any fitness regimen. --Olivia Voigts

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - If you're a Denise Austin fan you'll love this one
I recently purchased three videos with exercises aimed at getting one back into shape. The other two were Startin' Simple Easy Aerobics and Fabulous Forever with Mirabai Holland. This was one of the best of the three. I haven't exercised for three years, and I am recoveing from knee surgery. I found Denise Austin's Xtralite aerobics easy on my limbs and fairly easy to follow. She is, as always, invigorating and inspiring to watch and follow. My only concern is that people who have never done ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Bad soundtrack
Denise Austin is excellent, it is too bad we can't hear what she is saying. Because of the wind, waves crashing and too loud music she is inaudible. From other tapes I have of her, she gives good tips just when you need them, on this one it is impossible.I have to turn the audio off in order to concentrate the noise is so bad. It is too bad. Otherwise a good workout but I would not reccommend it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good but boring
Frankly, this tape is rather boring. Denise is at the beach again, exercising all alone and babbling her head off about how great exercise is for you. I wish she'd get a better scriptwriter! But this video is what it says--a basic low-aerobic tape with good instruction on form. It would be a lot more fun and motivating if other people were in it, and if the music were better. I have to force myself to face this tape, daily. It's just so...dull.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Out to make a quick buck
Although this video was not terribly taxing and thus qualifies for "Xtra Lite" in my book, I wasn't very impressed with the rest of it. I feel like she went to the beach, threw on a cute outfit, and winged it from there. The sound is poor, the music is ..., and she [messes] up so many times I find it difficult to follow, even after watching it repeatedly ... I do not recommend this tape.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great for beginners
This tape is great for beginners like me who can't remember the last time they exercised! I took an aerobics class a few years ago, and I can tell you that the steps you'll do with this tape are very similar to what you'd do in a class. The workout itself is at a good level - simple enough to not get lost, but difficult enough to get a good workout in the short time span.

Denise Austin seems to be very enthusiastic that you have taken the first step to making yourself healthier. At the end, ... Read More
