If you're a mother-to-be, but need some kind of exercise other than downward-facing dog and mountain pose, Leisa Hart's FitMama may be the workout for you. Developed by the fitness instructor during her first pregnancy, the DVD involves not just stretching but salsa dancing, stretches, and breathing exercises shaped to ease some of the discomforts of pregnancy, get your body in its best physical form, and prepare itself for labor and delivery. The effortlessly perky Hart works out alongside several women in various stages of pregnancy to show alternative moves and postures. She doesn't constantly bark "You can do it!" but rather urges you to do whatever is comfortable. But even with the lack of pressure, you can still enjoy the hip-swiveling salsa steps while working up a good sweat. Then cool down with the breathing section and stretches. You'll need a mat and pillow. An exercise ball and strap (you can use a towel) are also used but not required. Whether you're just getting over morning sickness or nearing your due date, FitMama is a useful and fun way to stay in shape without leaving your house.-Ellen A. Kim

Leisa Hart's Fit Mama: Prenatal Workout Reviews
494 of 498 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Leisa Hart's FitMama: Prenatal Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape) I own almost two dozen aerobic and strength training videos. Some offer challenging workouts. Others were a waste of time and money. Fit Mama is my first pregnancy video (although this will be my third child). IT IS EXCELLENT! Here is a summary:INTRODUCTION - Leisa Hart first tells you what to expect in her video. She explains that the abdominal exercises have been modified to prevent the vertical muscles, the recti abdominis, from separating during pregnancy. Guidelines from the American College of OBGyNs are listed. Leisa recommends a frequency of 3 to 4 times per week, but completing one section at a time vs. the entire 60 minutes fit my schedule better. SALSA (20 min) - The setting is bare: one large room with hardwood floors and two glass paneled doors in back. The participants are separated into groups. Leisa, in her third trimester, stands in the center. On her left are two women in their second trimester. Two women in their first trimester are on her right. All...

It is great for getting your heartrate up, breaking a light sweat, stretching and toning, and preparing for birth. The salsa section was a little hard for me to follow at first, but once I got the hang of it I found it a fun way to exercise. On the DVD, there are bonus sections about moves and positions to help you during labor, provided you are not confined to a hospital bed. I also like that once you know the routines, you can turn the narration off and just follow along with the music.One note, the "yoga burn" section is not really yoga. I like this section, but if you're accustomed to practicing yoga you may find it to be quite different from your expectations. It is based on a few basic yoga postures, like warrior and mountain pose, but there is quite a bit of fast movement and no long, meditative poses. I use this video alternately with "Yoga...

(Note that I do yoga and walk regularly; while I enjoy dancing, I do not dance regularly. I'm not overweight.) * Perfect Pregnancy Workout - 5 stars. Designed and narrated by a Cirque du Soleil acrobat (faint French accent), this video is my favorite of the three. The woman demonstrating the workout is about 8 months pregnant and in amazing athletic shape (visible muscle definition). The theme of this video seems to be preparing for birth and staying strong and fit. It has two sections: (a) workout and (b) instructions. (a) After a mercifully brief cheesy earth-mother introduction, the yoga-based workout is vigorous yet flowing and straightforward, building incredible muscle strength, flexibility, and stamina. It includes... Read more |
