Certified instructor description: You get five different segments, each with twelve different exercises. The variety keeps you motivated while the sections let you target your specific goals (the programmable DVD lets you play any segment in any order). The aerobic choices are: kickbox or classic cardio. The toning options are: lower-body/abs or upper-body/abs. There’s also a great yoga stretch — the perfect ending to any of the other workouts. Denise even includes optional progressions within each one-minute sequence (e.g. a march becomes a jog, a step-touch becomes a plyo-hop). You can follow the intensifier or stick with the base move. As always, Denise is peppy and positive. Requires 3 to 5 lb. dumbbells. ©2008. DVD has: Programmable chapters, Close captions, Region 1.

Denise Austin's Get Fit Daily Dozen

great!
This video covers all the basic needs: which are a little cardio, a little toning, and stretching. I like the brevity of each segment which makes it easier to actually keep a routine of exercising several times a week. She does do a brief stretch after each workout which is very important but my favorite is the stretch segment which I have now been doing daily thanks to the brevity of this video(12 minutes) but at the same time she covers every part of your body. You can customize this video and do only the segments you want to do each time or you can do all of them under an hour right in your home and get on with your busy schedule. This one is a keeper for me. - posted by Imelda on 5/3/2012
Challenging Workout for Plus Sized Women
I found this video pretty challenging. I did the best that I knew how with this workout. The movements were a little bit on the intermediate/advanced level. I workout out mostly on a beginner level. The reason for it is that I have not worked out in a month in a half. I am a plus sized woman and I should have waited until I got stronger to do this workout. I just wanted to try something a little different and challenging so I could lose weight and get a sleeker physique. - posted by Elesha on 3/28/2012
Another Great Workout by Denise
I love 12 minute workouts. I can always motivate myself no matter how tired "just to do 12 minutes". I enjoy choosing different areas to target on different days. Denise provides a great workouts that uses all of those 12 minutes very effectively. - posted by Pattie on 2/23/2012
Great Video
Helping me to get back into shape. - posted by Merle on 2/23/2012
Good Flexible Workout
A 12 minute workout probably isn't enough to burn fat, but I do a couple of them on the days I'm also doing yoga. It is flexible enough to use on busy days and the workouts are fairly well organized. Not enough to get my heart rate up, but it will suffice when pressed for time. - posted by Marie on 2/17/2012
Anyone and Everyone Should Do This Workout!
This video presents the easiest way to get a full body work out and tone all the muscle groups. It is fun and fast and puts you into a weekly routine that is sustainable ... while producing results! I highly recommend it. - posted by Anna on 2/16/2012

It is a great workout for the whole body - posted by Lawanna Wade on 6/10/2011
Great, and versatile
This was my first Denise Austin video and it made me a fan. I love the breakdown of the workouts, and the fact that you can combine them as you like. If I'm going for a heavy day, I do the two cardio segments followed by the lower body, upper body, and finish with the stretch. If I don't have much time or am having a weak day, I can do just a cardio, or just a cardio and one of the strength, whatever suits me. I love having that option, and the fact that each segment is short, so I can always fit in at least one of them, which keeps me in fitness mode even when I'm pressed for time. Her cues are not super good, especially at the end of the cardio kickbox segment, but I found that I could compensate for that once I became familiar with the workout. I do like her reminders to pull up the abs, which is something that I often forget to do. I can see how it might be too easy for super cardio people, but it's just right for me. - posted by kristin on 6/9/2011
Good entry to intermediate workouts
This is the second time I've purchased this DVD (the first one wore out!) and I've done it faithfully each week for over a year now. I combine the weight segments with the cardio to give a 30 minute workout and I've found it to be really effective. This was my step up from some 2-mile walk videos and it was a good entry into the intermediate exercise range. As I've gotten stronger, I've added more intensity and still use this dvd faithfully. It's a keeper. - posted by Helen on 5/1/2011

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Programmable chapters
X
At the beginning of your workout, you can select the exact segments you want to play that day. The DVD will then play all those segments in the order you chose.
Region 1
X
This DVD is designed for US and Canadian DVD players. It will NOT play in most foreign country players.
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
