Josie Gibson level 1 workout- review

All I have to say is PHEW! 

I can see how she shed the weight! 

Today I did Josie's 30 second slim, level 1 workout. 

I initially started the warm-up in just my t-shirt and pants, I soon realised I had too much wobble and needed some support. So, on went my sports bra and supportive gym leggings. 

The DVD is focused on 30 seconds of intense exercise, followed by active rest. Active rest is not the word! It should be called slightly less intense rest (but there is no resting involved.) 

I can totally see and feel how Josie loss all of the weight that she did, the workout is hardcore and I'm only on level 1. I'm scared to play level 2 and 3 but I feel that if I stick with the DVD, it won't be long before I start seeing results. 

There is a beefy trainer giving instructions and in level 1, Josie says hardly anything at all. It is almost like she is just his pretty assistant in the background, which I felt was a shame as the DVD is about her and her weight loss. 

Most celebrity workout DVD's have a 'story' about their weight loss, as does this one, but it's a bit flat.

There is a dull narrator basically saying: 'look at how she was before, this is her doing the workout on the first day and now look at her 6 months later' - insert clapping here-  It feels a little patronizing. I wanted to see the blood, sweat and tears over the months to from fat to fab.  

Josie again does not say a word, dispute the fact that it is 'Josie's story.' 

Based on the level 1 workout, I would say you do need a certain level of fitness to start off with. I do try to run a couple if times a week and I found some of the moves totally exhausting and incredibly difficult but you can totally feel your body being worked out and the point is to push yourself as hard as you can for 30 seconds at a time. (Maybe I'm just lazy!) 

A good thing is that Level 1 only lasts about 20 minutes, so I can now go on with my day while thinking 'I kicked my own wobbly butt this morning!' 

I will keep up with level 1 for a couple of weeks to build up my fitness and then move onto level 2.

I will keep you posted.
