Great interactivity and instruction on poses–plus it’s fun!, January 5, 2009

Great Yoga DVD, especially for those new to yoga. I’ve had a good handful of yoga classes and my husband’s had a few. We both really benefit from Bob’s instruction, particularly on form. It’s one thing to say, “keep your back straight,” or “make sure you watch your form,” but Bob instructs as if you’ve never had a yoga class in your life, which is good–both for newbies and those of us who aren’t experts yet. He actually shows you what good knee alignment looks like. Or tells you how it should feel. I agree with one of the reviewers that it’s a little awkward (okay, a lot awkward) to be in a yoga pose and have to look up at the TV, but that’s really the same as being in class–I would have to look at an instructor to see what’s going on sometimes–but after a week or two of doing this, you get the hang of it and know what to do.

The BEST part of the Biggest Loser videos are the interactive menus so you can select what kind of workout you want to do. What an AWESOME idea! Finally! Someone helps me cut out the stuff I don’t need or let’s me build a longer workout and it plays exactly how I selected it.

And hey, if you’re a dude, you’ll like this because Bob leads the session. It’s not just for girls. (And not just for skinny girls either.) Besides, there’s none of that swirly yoga-ish, indian flute music with perfectly carved bodies flawlessly moving from pose to pose. It’s basic instruction (with light background music), and you see the other participants (past BL contestants) make mistakes along the way just like most of us do when we’re taking a yoga class. So what if you put your right leg in the air when everyone else puts up their left. That’s what I love about this DVD! While I’m sure they spent a lot of “takes” shooting the DVD, they didn’t aim for absolute perfection. Hey, life isn’t perfect and I’ve yet to have a perfect yoga class. The fact that I got my tail out of bed to even do this each morning is as much perfect I can expect right now.

Yes, there’s a lot of “plank,” which is actually good for weight loss yoga. I have to admit that my arms were killing me during a lot of the warrior 2 poses, but I turned to my husband and said, “Just think, in a couple of weeks this will be so much easier for us!”

ps: Bob’s Biggest Loser Boot Camp is fun too!

Great read, May 6, 2010

By 

Albert Baime –

  

This review is from: The Great Oom: The Improbable Birth of Yoga in America (Hardcover)

This book is about a lot of things: a wonderfully quirky main character, a new spiritual movement, sex, mischief, and scandal. But in its own weird way, it’s really about…America. A page turner indeed.

An addictive, fascinating read, May 4, 2010

By 

Jancee Dunn (Brooklyn, New York) –

This review is from: The Great Oom: The Improbable Birth of Yoga in America (Hardcover)

I had never heard of Pierre Bernard before I read this book; now I’ll never forget him. This meticulously-researched history of the early days of yoga in this country has everything: scandal, drama, sex, eccentric characters, performing elephants..I read it in one gulp.

Pierre A. Bernard was an extraordinary and paradoxical individual, perhaps both genius and fraud, and his life story has implications that extend far beyond his role as "the father of American Yoga." Robert Love is both a thorough researcher and a superb storyteller.

A Delightful and Important Book, May 8, 2010

By 

Mark Michaels & Patricia Johnson “Swami Umesh… (New York) –

This review is from: The Great Oom: The Improbable Birth of Yoga in America (Hardcover)

The Great Oom is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Tantra and Yoga in America, and it should delight the general reader as well. Pierre A. Bernard was an extraordinary and paradoxical individual, perhaps both genius and fraud, and his life story has implications that extend far beyond his role as “the father of American Yoga.” Robert Love is both a thorough researcher and a superb storyteller. He has done a brilliant job of illuminating a life that was heretofore shrouded in mystery.

This review is from: Bosu Cardio Fusion DVD with Rob Glick (DVD)

I loved this workout. I almost didn’t buy it because of the reviews here indicating that the cuing was poor, but I’m glad I didn’t let that stop me! I thought his cuing was flawless and I didn’t see places where he called the same move by different names at all. I found it incredibly easy to follow, fast paced and fun! You do need to be careful about where you are placing your feet during some of the faster moves, but I would highly recommend this dvd!

This review is from: Bosu Cardio Fusion DVD with Rob Glick (DVD)

I include this DVD everytime I do my Bosu. It may be just one of the segments- -but it really gets cardio going. I had to build up to being able to do it but feel so good when I am done. I love the Bosu and highly recommend it.
