"If you have a copy of the squeeze, the complete workout dont waste your money as it is exactly the same workout but they just changed the cover. I was so disappointed because i preordered and had to wait almost 2 months to find out that i had the workout already. if i had known this i wouldnt have wasted my money but i am now defintely going to return it an get a refund"

"TRACY EFFINGER TOOK HER FIRST SQUEEZE WORKOUT, AND RETITLED AND REPACKAGED IT. THIS IS NOT A NEW DVD. FIRST I WAS CONFUSED WHEN I STARTED DOING THE VIDEO AND I KNEW EVERYTHING BEFORE SHE EVEN DID IT, THEN I REALIZED THAT SHE ALREADY RELEASED THIS DVD YEARS AGO. SO I DID A SCENE BY SCENE COMPARISON OF THE ORIGINAL SQUEEZE AND THE 30 DAY BODY TRANSFORMATION: BEGINNING TO END, THEY ARE THE SAME EXACT MOVIE. SAME OUTFIT, SAME MUSIC, SAME MOVES, SAME WORDS, SAME EVERYTHING. ISN'T THIS ILLEGAL? ALL THEY DID WAS REPACKAGE THE DVD AND RETITLE IT AND RELEASE IT LIKE IT IS NEW. I AM GOING TO FIGHT TO RETURN IT EVEN THOUGHT I OPENED IT."

Very good full body workout offers athletic approach to barr

"NOTE: This is the SAME workout that was originally marked under the title "Squeeze."



In her Introduction to this workout, instructor Tracy Effinger describes it as a combination of yoga, ballet, and athletic exercises. Unlike with many other barre workouts, Tracy wears sneakers throughout here. She instructs live in an indoor studio setting, although during the workout, the scene shifts to images of her exercising on a rooftop setting as well. She uses light dumbbells for the upper body work--she recommends 1-3 lbs. but states that she is using 2 lbs.--and for the lower body, she uses a chair, a mat, and a rubber playground ball (I substituted a Pilates ring, which worked pretty well).



The Main Menu of this DVD offers three options: Full Body Squeeze, Power Squeeze, and Custom Squeeze. Only the Custom Squeeze section has its own submenu, which makes the DVD somewhat difficult to navigate (more on this below). I have broken down each of the three workout options, including approximate times and brief descriptions of each chapter point.



FULL BODY SQUEEZE (56.5m)

*Warmup (2m)--Tracy performs the knees up/arms up usually found in barre workouts, but she also does knees/arms to the side. She ends with a forward bend stretch.

*Arms (8m)--This segment definitely burns the shoulders; the weights might feel light at first, but you will feel it towards the end! Tracy does variations of lateral raises, shoulder presses, and chest presses; she also incorporates a bit of biceps work.

*Triceps (4m)--You start in a traditional 1-arm kickback position, except that Tracy has you perform pulses with the arm straight; she does several variations. I felt this the next day!

*Waist (3.5m)--Standing in a wide-legged stance and still holding the weights, Tracy does reaches both overhead and down to the ankles.

*Push-Ups (4m)--Tracy sets up to perform push-ups on the knees, doing one set of 2-count push-ups and then a second set double-time. She also performs tricep dips on the floor, adding in a leg raise to up the challenge. A brief seated stretch for both the triceps and the hips concludes this segment.

*Standing Stretch Series ("

Excellent!
