The Method(r) brings you the secret to the worlds most beautiful bodies! This double feature DVD combines the best-selling Precision Toning and Precision Sculpting videos featuring instructor Jennifer Kries. She gives clear and precise instructions on how you can tone, firm and flatten your abs without strenuous sit-ups or crunches! Define your buns without lunges, squats or machines and sculpt your legs without high impact aerobics.

In the Precision Sculpting segment, you can tone and trim your arms without heavy weights or boring repetitions, sculpt your chest and shoulders without pushups or chest press machines then trim and define your lower body.

Precision Toning is over an hour and a half of deep muscle techniques and mat based exercises for an all over total body toning & sculpting regime that you can see results on very quickly.

dont like it
This video is very old and the flow of it is lousy. I did not like this video at all, but I gave it to a friend who has no pilates experience and she liked it.

Great workout!
I had never tried Pilates before I bought this DVD, but I was really impressed. Normally I stick with yoga, which I found too gentle in the long term to get in shape, but The Method really works all your muscles. Every time I do the exercises I notice it is harder and easier in different ways, and I respond differently every time. Unfortunately I didn't realize until recently there was a second exercise on the DVD (due to a poor DVD remote), and it makes an already cheap tape even more impressive. I definitely recommend it, and if you keep with it for any length of time you *will* notice a difference.

Great Pilates Video
This is a very basic and unique workout where Pilates is combined with Yoga. Jennifer Kries is pleasant to listen to and look at. She is properly dressed and professional which works for both sexes as it's about exercise without distraction due to improper dress. She explains the moves beautifully so anyone can do them. She encourages any skill level so you can go only as far as you can. I am amazed at how flexible I've become after only a few weeks. I am 57 years old and can bend down and touch my nose to my knees fairly comfortably now. I don't recommend it for weight loss but for strength building, toning and flexibility. If you're looking for weight loss, you need to find an aerobic workout that fits with your physical capabilities and use it along with this video.

effective workout
This is s a very effective workout although it is not very stressful. All movements are well explained.

Definitely not for beginners
I bought this video to get me into Pilates. Bad idea. The instructor is so monotone and boring, it puts me to sleep. Also, if you aren't already in good shape, the moves are incredibly hard. This will be a video that will sit on my shelf.
