This ab workout is amazing, but deceptively hard.The workout is based on Pilates moves and I think someone who has not had experience with Pilates techniques and breathing may either have a hard time with getting the posturing right (and keeping it that way), and may be wasting their time if they don't have the proper Pilates basics down.A lot of the ab work depends on using your abs to breathe, and this is explained well by the instructor.One problem with the video is that some of the moves she does towards the end of the workout are very advanced Pilates moves-- impossible at a beginner or even intermediate level.Some of these moves have to be built up to with other moves, but the instructor just has us doing them as if they were simple situps.She does, however, aknowledge that we may have difficulties doing some of the moves, and offers alternate moves (eg. alternating leg and arm moves instead of doing them simultaneously).If you have never done Pilates before, I suggest doing this video with someone who has, and can give you tips on posturing that the video does not provide.All in all, however, this is a great video and a VERY hard ab workout.I was definately feeling it the next day.Click Here to see more reviews about: Balance Ball Fitness - Abs Workout (1999)
