Tracy Anderson: Method Express
A**R
Pleasantly Surprised and Wishing I Would Have Started Sooner!
I am on week 5 and I have always been pleasantly plump even when working out 6 days a week doing cardio and heavy lifting. Everyone nowadays claims that women need to lift heavy and it is a myth that we will bulk up. Well for me, that is a lie. I bulked up considerably. To the point to where I gained weight and got bigger all over. I was eating healthy/Paleo so I know it was my fitness routine. I was so fed up with trying everything under the sun to change my body and I started to feel defeated. I realized that I may have to settle for this body. Once again, I saw something on Tracy Anderson and as always I was willing to try anything but really did not have alot of hope. I started by using her YouTube videos and they were very unusual compared to what I am used to. I was thinking to myself how all of these weird non-weighted movements would do anything to transform my body. She has a very unusual method and I thought what the heck. I would give it a go. I stopped lifting weights the first time in over 2 years and after a week of doing this funky method my body was slimming out for the first time in forever. I even wondered if it was all in my head. lol Now after 5 weeks I am receiving compliments from people and my husband who always responds vaguely because my body never changed before. I am more flexible than I ever have been and my body is getting tiny. ME...TINY?! WHAT? Don't knock this until you try it. I don't know why after everything else I have done that these workouts work for me but I don't care. They work and I won't go back. I really enjoy the workouts and I actually just do my own cardio. I eat the majority of the time Paleo and ecstatic to buy more workout videos from Tracy. Who would have thought that these odd angle movements would be hard work and make the changes they do. She is really on to something here.

Good workout
I like this method, if only I were to stick to home workouts

I like that the moves are different than what you do ...
I rotate through about 6 workout DVD's and just recently added TA's Method Express to my rotation. I like that the moves are different than what you do with many other workouts. I feel the muscles while I'm working and afterwards. I like that the music and Tracy aren't cheesy like a lot of other DVD's that I've purchased. Some people don't like that she just counts off the reps, but I don't mind that because she seems real and isn't trying to fake being super energetic, which gets on my nerves. The only negatives that I have are that the moves are difficult because most of them are unlike anything that anyone else is doing...I like that, but she doesn't do a good job of setting you up or walking you through the moves. I've completed the entire DVD 4 times now and I still don't think I'm doing all of the moves correctly because she goes so fast and you try to keep up while watching her form. Most moves are only completed for 10 reps, so when I feel like I've figured out a move, she is already moving on to the next one. I really feel like it's working though, so I'll be sticking with it and hoping that over time, I'll master the moves.

this video and others from 2015 series are great to start with
the "express" series from Tracy rock comparing to her earlier releases that are would be on high-advanced level. If you are new to Tracy's approach and are average fitness level, this video and others from 2015 series are great to start with. she changed her approach where there's verbal cues as to the moves (vs. some of her early releaves from back in 2006-08 such as metamorphesis series). I've started with the "express" series and got my endurance built up after 2 months of regular 1 hr/per day 7 days a week workout regime. Now I am doing metamorphosis series, which when I first tried I almost gave up. I consider myself on the average endurance level since I've been doing J. Michaels for over 1 yr and Insanity regularly (5-6 times a week).Tracy's method is great if you are looking for a dancer's fit body with high endurance. It does not give you huge or eyepopping muscles which are common with other heavy weight lifting programs. So, keep that in mind, if you goal is to have a lean dancer-like all-over-toned body with having your fitness endurance built up where you can jump and run like back when you were a child, go with Tracy's method.

I would recommend no weights for people with shoulder and back injuries ...
There are no modifications for the shoulder/arm workouts. Be very careful if you have shoulder injuries and back problems. The moves are done fast which can cause accidental jerky movements. I would recommend no weights for people with shoulder and back injuries and then progress to 2 and 3lbs weights when you have mastered the routine. Tracy should offer modifications........ that's why I'm giving this DVD a firm 3 stars.

Horrible instructor!
Don't waste your money! She does not do moves that are safe for our bodies. Plus she does not give alternative ways to do her stupid incorrect moves! I threw both CD's out!

Awesome dvd !!!
I just received this dvd today. The main reason I started doing tracy Anderson is because she normally doesn't have you doing squats ( squats tend to bulk me up) but in this video she does. So that part I don't care for.For the most part most of her moves are new but there are some you will recognize from previous dvds.I do like the fact that there tends to be less reps because I have a hard time doing forty reps like she has you doing in some of her other videos.I find myself buying a lot of her videos as I tend to get very board doing them and I switch every couple of days instead of every ten days like she recommends.She is a lot more explanatory in this dvd and I think it will become my favorite so far out of all her videos.Tracy Anderson works, you just have to be consistent and watch your diet and you will see results !Though I am confused on why she had a sudden change about using five pound weights when before she said it was a big no no to go above three pounds.

使い易いです
・腕、肩・お尻・脚・腹筋・腕、肩、腹筋のショートバージョン・脚、お尻のショートバージョン各10分ずつなので、その日の体調や気分で組み合わせられます。プレクショントーニングよりレップ数が少ないので、プレクションがキツイ人にはお勧めです。最近のトレーシーはプランクの姿勢のアレンジした腹筋が多いです。これは骨格にもよりますが、クビレが欲しい人は程々にした方が良いかもしれません。インスタグラムでやり込んでる方々、腹筋は割れてますが皆さん寸胴になってます。

great workout!
just got introduced to TA a few months ago and I really enjoy her workouts. I have several of her DVD's now. This one is great for when you are short on time or just want to end a good walk or run with some muscle building. Very do-able and if you do them all at the same time, you have a great workout!! I feel great after working out and I am in my 60's now.

Great workout and great results quick - really!
I LOVE this DVD and after just two weeks already see big time differences in my shape. I tend to develop muscle easily but I'm getting nice long lean results so far! Plus according to my Fitbit it burns a ton of calories :) highly recommended!
