Easy to follow

"Most times, fitness DVDs with short workouts are focused on one specific body part so that you have string together an hour's worth of segments to get any workout at all. Not so with this one.



The choreography/routines are basic, but the pace is quick. A beginner can follow it easily, but an intermediate may be more comfortable for the duration. The exercises she's chosen are very time-efficient, never boring, and can be done in a limited amount of space. Tracey's accent is very subtle and not at all distracting. (I had that problem with Lisa Kay's Southern drawl, Denise Austin's Texas twang, and Keli Roberts' Aussie accent.) Her cuing is excellent,and her encouragement is motivating rather than perky.



If you have the book, you'll recognize the segment titles. This DVD contains:



Warm-up

Quick Cardio Total Body Blast A

Quick Cardio Total Body Blast B

Quick Cardio Total Body Blast C



Quick Mind-Body Blast A

Quick Mind-Body Blast B

Quick Mind-Body Blast C



Quick Abs Blast

Cool-down



All the segments are 6 minutes, except for the warm-up and cool-down which are 15 each. There are two recommended pre-programmed week-long routines, or you can choose segments individually.



You'll need a pair of 3-5 pound weights and - since the cardio is mixed impact - I'd also recommend a good sports bra for the ladies.

Fantastic workouts

"This is my first review I write about a fitness DVD, although I have nearly 50 DVDs at home. I am a perfectionist - I can't say it in other words - and my workouts need to be perfect. Most DVDs are unbalanced (for example too much biceps, no triceps) or the intensity moves from extremly high to boring in the same session.

Well, I'm lucky because I found the perfect workout for me! Tracey's workouts couldn't be better.

First I was very sceptical because of the length. How can I get a good workout in 6 minutes? It is possible! You will sweat, your muscels will burn! Big promise.

I mix an match both DVDs and train 24 minutes a day, 6 days a week. The effects on my body are dramatic. I am so happy, that I found a way to get fit, although I am a busy mother of a three years old daughter. My abs look better than before my pregnancy and I feel fantasic!

I also love Tracey's book. It's like your best friend is talking to you and tells you every secret about nutrition and training you always wanted to know. Tracey is very likeable, friendly, and honest. ... and I assume she is a perfectionist as well :-) Thank you Tracey!

Amazing Results Makeover...

"Tracey Mallett's 6 Minute Quick Blast Method-Total Body Calorie Burn My man hooked me up with the best workout dvd. I was amazed at the inches I lost as my body fat melted away just by following Tracey's program. Tracey developed these 'user friendly' programs and all I did was curiously follow her lead and in the short amount of time it takes to complete each workout - I was definately satisfied with my results. Tracey is fantastic at encouraging me to work through the burning muscle squeezes and to keep going!!! ...oooh feel that burn - and I sure did!!! It was refreshing how I could choose each routine to focus on my own personal goals. I would highly recommend this dvd to anyone who wants to change their own body image and feel physically stronger and look leaner. The supplimental book 'Sexy in 6' goes into more detail and helped clarify for me the reason why making a physical change with the DVD brings with it that feeling of the mind-body connection coming into balance. Thanks for a great product!!!"

Great for the "time-phob" like myself!

"I've always had the issue of not having time to really work in exercise. I would try to do 15 minutes but what I was doing would hardly get my heart rate up enough to begin to try to work a sweat.



Not so with Tracey! I can accomplish more in 6 minutes than I used to in 15-20 minutes. The mix of cardio and strength is great and really easy to follow.



I've been using the DVD for about 2 weeks straight now and feel great and have lost 11lbs (coupled with eating better of course)!



Overall this is a great money investment for those using the time commitment as an excuse or reason for not exercising."
