STOTT PILATES Power Paced Fitness Circle - Resistance Ring for Full Body Workout (English/French) - Perfect for Home Gym, Pilates, Yoga & Physical Therapy

The DVD is only 31 minutes long, and the first 4 1/2 minutes are breathing "exercises". The DVD is not fast paced or "power paced" by any definition. The music is horribly relaxing. I had to turn on some other music in order to feel motivated to work out; the music on the DVD is for relaxation. The exercises are not strenous. But most of all, there are glaring omissions in the exercises you can do with the circle. There are so many other ways the circle can be used that are not on this DVD.This DVD states that there is a bonus workout to "take it to the next level". Well it is actually an advertisement for another DVD. The short routine does not use the fitness circle at all. It uses small balls (that you would have to purchase). Then it ends with a picture of the Stott DVD they are trying to sell.I recommend "Pilates Complete for Everyone" by bodywisdom media. Even though the fitness circle is only a small part of the workout(s), I feel I get more results for my time spent working out.I can't see myself ever doing the "Power Paced Fitness Circle" again, unless I was very sick or injured. Like most people, I don't have unlimited time to work out. I need every minute to count toward results. This DVD was a huge disappointment.
