Good for toning; not for reducing!

"I fell in love with Jennifer's Total Body Workout on cable, but the showing expired on 08.08.08 so I ordered this one for some variety. This DVD does not compare to Total Body Workout.
Some information about the DVD:
I. Warmup - hamstring pulls, tapping toes, warriors, etc
II. First workout - some bend over leg stretches--various varieties without the weights
III. Second workout - some lunges with weights, zipper moves, plies and so forth (all with the weights in hand)
IV. Floor moves - varies leg raises and lifts without the weights or with ankle weights; the leg raises include the ones for the butts and outer thighs
V. Cool down - stretching on the floor
My opinion:
The DVD is boring. The DVD is about 45 minutes and that is simply too long to hear Jennifer say: "That was so good, you did awesome" and so forth. She sounds very fake in this DVD. The moves are monotonous. Doing this DVD alone will not burn anything on your lower body.
The DVD also seems more for leg toning. Although she calls it lower body burn, she states repeatedly on the DVD that you will get "awesome legs."
The only good thing about this DVD is that Jennifer's body is OUTSTANDING. She is the first person on an exercise DVD that had the body I wanted. Mallet is too thin (probably genetics) and Jeanette and the lady from the Biggest Loser are too muscular. Jennifer Nicole Lee is the perfect combination of thin and muscular.
Anyway, if you want to TONE the lower body, get this DVD. If you want a workout, get the TOTAL WORKOUT DVD by Jennifer Nicole Lee."
