YogaWorks DVDs Review and Giveaway

I recently posted about a YogaWorks DVD I tried out, and I was fortunate to try two more over the past week (ARV $10.98 each):

Beginners AM/PM - Welcome to the exciting world of yoga! With the three basic workouts featured in YogaWorks Beginners AM/PM it will be a cinch to get going with your new yoga practice. You'll be guided through a series of fun and easy yoga postures that are simple enough for anyone to try. At a pace that's right for you, you'll build new strength and flexibility - in muscles you never knew you had!

The Beginners was a great workout and it made me more familiar with the most common poses.

The AM Wake-Up and PM Relax & Restore sessions were great ways to start and end the day. All the stretching in the various poses really felt wonderful!

Fit Abs - It's time to rejuvenate, slim down, and feel great! With YogaWorks Fit Abs, you will build a strong core in this fun, demanding practice that will tone your muscles and melt inches from your waist.

The Fit Abs section didn’t seem to incorporate as much abs work as compared to other abs workouts I’ve done, but the next day I really felt it. My muscles were sore!


The Core Yoga section, as expected, was tough. Lots of Downward Facing Dog, Upward Facing Dog, and Plank poses that I found myself struggling with once I got to the half-way point. I’m embarrassed that I’m so out of shape! And it got tougher! Through it all I felt my muscles burning and my body shaking. I knew I was getting a good workout.

The YogaWorks DVDs are great tools to help me get in shape, become more flexible, and improve my overall well-being!

Shop: You can purchase YogaWorks: Beginners AM/PM and YogaWorks: Fit Abs at various retailers online and nationwide.

Win: One lucky winner will receive a copy each of YogaWorks: Beginners AM/PM and YogaWorks: Fit Abs!
