Rebecca Wheatley The new me workout review

Hi  this is a DVD i picked up last week 2nd hand again so its at least a year old maybe more not sure.
This is the actress that used to play Amy the receptionist in Casualty and she has lost a amazing 12 stone on slimming world plan and doing regular exercise. It took her 27 months so a nice sensible length of time.

The DVD appealed to me right away as she is very normal and down to earth and lost a great amount.

Its set in a living room setting so just like you at home so it feels relaxed Rebecca is lovely and lets her trainer guide you through only commenting the odd time as she is busy getting on with it and great to see her and the trainer sweat.

It starts with a warm up then has 3 sections, a Salsa moves, dance moves and a boxing type section ( my fave ) and until stage three you really don't feel tired or sweat and tend to think this is easy and not giving me a decent workout but that's just it its gradual and by end of section three you are sweating and then its a arms section ( tough at times )  then abs and legs bums and tums ( the leg raises ooh ouch ! )  and then a cool down and end of DVD i was tired and sweaty and all my body had a good exercise.

The trainer is great he gives you lots of stretches that some in DVDs don't do enough of i find and you need them to not suffer next day. He also keeps the exercise to short cardio bursts and then walks it through and gives a stretch so I give it my all knowing there is only a few more counts as its quick burst and then i can catch my breath a second this is great for keeping enthusiasm up and not slacking on the moves which can happen.

This is a enjoyable workout of simple level along the same lines as Rosemary Connerly type workouts starts off slow, steady and easy by end not in agony but warm bit sweaty and worked hard. So if you are looking for intense then this is not for you but its still effective.

If you do all parts of the DVD ( which if very overweight and new to exercise just do warm up one or two sections and either abs, arms and cool down till you can manage more) it takes about a hour.

The music isn't great a few tunes i recognised but they were just the instrumental i would of like the proper songs ( No Limits by 2 unlimited was one )  !

A diet and eating plan ( slimming world ) is at the end of workout

If you are a super fit person this could be a bit boring and maybe just one to do on the odd day.

The only negative is I am getting quite fit now despite the tum still getting in the way and I would of liked the moves at time to continue and the three main sections i would of liked to be pushed just a bit more and in the dance section its not much dance more moves and steps really would of liked this  to be more dance and faster.
I enjoy it and have done it 4 days in a row love the cardio bursts and friendly trainer who dose not annoy he is reassuring and comes across as pleasant.
