Customer Rating:      Summary: NOT Abs & Thighs Comment: This was a waste of money especially since I had already purchased the double pack of kickboxing and aerobics. It has two of the same workouts that are on the aerobics DVD. I purchased this because I thought it would be more sculpting and that would compliment the cardio workouts I purchased but that was not the case.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Its a fun cardio workout Comment: I like the Carribbean series because they are fun, they provide a great workout, and I don't get bored with them. This dvd has 3 20 minute workouts on it. Both the first and second workout have moves that really work the areas listed in the title. The first called "circuit training" is really a high impact cardio with 4 interludes of a various squat with weighted arm lifts. The second workout is another great high impact cardio. The 3rd workout is not high impact like it the menu states, its really a low-impact.
Customer Rating:      Summary: I was expecting more out of this Comment: This workout is mediocre. I haven't tried a lot of videos, but I was recommended this one. I have a hard time following the actions because the camera is focused on the womens' heads or showing the scenery. This would be better for someone more familiar with aerobics.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A Great Effective Cardio Workout with a Misleading Title! Comment: The title is misleading: Abs, Buns and Thighs remind me of a strength training workout however this DVD is all-cardio with very minimal strength training. It's a fun and intense (intermediate-level) workout! You get three 20-minute segments: 1 circuit training, 1 more-low impact and 1 more-high impact workouts. I got a good sweat after I did all three segments and I consider myself a high intermediate/low advanced exerciser. I didn't have a hard time following the moves and I disagree with Tina who said that the focus of the camera is more on headshots and the upper body. I have done this workout a couple of times already and the focus of the camera is on the total body with some upper and lower body focus. I also disagree with Tina when she said the kickboxing is easy. Fact is, there is no kickboxing segment in this DVD. People should note that these workouts were taken from Fit TV so there are naturally "gaps" or "breaks" where they put in the commercials. However, for the DVD, you don't get the commercials so that's why people think there are "interruptions" in filming. I was able to follow the moves right after the "breaks" so I didn't have a problem at all. All in all, a great purchase at a bargain price!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Glad I only paid $4.86 for this DVD Comment: The first time I put this workout DVD on, I expected to see exercises designed for abs, buns and thighs. What I actually saw was an easier version of the kickboxing DVD. I kept going, thinking it would get to the abs, buns and thighs, but it never did! The other huge problem with this video is that half of it is filmed from the waist up, or headshots only, so when you are being introduced to a new step in the routine, you can't even learn it, because you cannot see the instructors legs or feet. Also very irritating how there are interruptions in filming, picking up on a different beat to where it left off. All in all an awful purchase and not even worth the $4.86 paid. I turned it off halfway through the second workout and put Billy Blanks TaeBo on instead. MUCH BETTER!!!
