4.0 out of 5 stars First impressions after one workout, Nov 4 2006

By	Christina (Vancouver, BC Canada) - See all my reviews

I bought this after reading reviews on Amazon.com, and it seems to have been money well-spent. I haven't yet watched the extras, but I watched the introduction and completed the hour-long full workout just over an hour ago. Because it was my first time using the DVD I used lighter (5 lb) handweights, I didn't use a step, and sometimes I followed the easier/beginner modifications. Despite that, a lot of my muscle groups -- particularly my shoulders, biceps and abs -- are feeling that nice muscle fatigue that will probably turn into ache in a few more hours.

Jari Love and her three "Rippers" (none of them named Jack, sadly) lead you through a series of exercises, with each of them showing different variations and using different weights. At the start of each exercise the DVD displays both which muscles it targets, and what the average and peak caloric expenditure are. The exercise sequence is:

Reverse lunge and side squat
Spider and pushups
Chest press with hips raised
Bent leg deadlift & bicep curl
Wide squat & upright row
Stiff leg deadlift with lat row
Squat with lat raise, narrow squat with ant raise
Step ups with overhead press
Tricep kickback with core work
Abs
Stretch

What I liked:
1) The compound exercises (using more muscles at once), a technique that helps to burn more calories per minute, also kept things interesting. Doing the deadlift and moving from that into bicep curls made bicep curls a lot less monotonous. This was particularly important because the lighter weights/more reps approach means a boring exercise would feel like it was lasting forever.

2) Apart from my complaint below about technique/form cueing, the instruction from Jari is clear and she provides enough encouragement to keep you going but not so much you want to reach into the TV and throttle her.

What I didn't like:
1) None of the stretches, especially at the end, seemed to be held long enough. I kept having to reach for the remote and pause the DVD before they went on to the next stretch, to give my muscles time to really stretch.

2) Also related to pacing, I wasn't able to do a few of the one-count exercises as fast as they were leading them with good form. The pace for each exercise varies (usually starting out slow, then 3-and-1 count, then 2 count, then 1), so this wasn't terrible but was momentarily frustrating.

3) While some technique is described and Jari makes reference to checking your form, it felt like there could have been more of this. For instance, I didn't notice any warnings not to let your knee go past your toes during lunges and squats. The first DVD of the series apparently covers this. If I were a beginner, that other DVD would probably be more useful. Having the Ripper who does the beginner-level modifications to follow in Get Ripped! to the Core isn't enough unless either you know how to exercise safely or you're very good at mimicking correct form by watching others do it.

4) This one's a petty complaint, but Jari's bangs are covering up too much of her face and it was distracting at times.

The things I didn't like are what knocked it down to four stars, but I did like it a lot. Overall, it was challenging and fun. It feels like it will deliver results. With the options it gives to make it easier or harder, I can see using this regularly for quite some time.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lot of love for Jari Love!, Jun 22 2007

By	Cristina (Toronto, Ontario) - See all my reviews

This is my third Jari Love dvd and every time all I can say is wow! If you consisently do these workouts, do cardio and watch what you eat (Jari makes reference to diet several times), you will see results in weeks. I am seeing results after doing these videos with cardio for almost two months and I have dropped a few sizes.

Jari is not intimidating at all and she and her Ripped students provide modifications for all levels from beginner to advanced. They even do modifications for those with shoulder problems and things of the like and Jari goes as far to make additional suggestions. As she says, she wants everyone to get results even if they have knee or shoulder problems. What I also really like is how each exercise begins with a narration and demonstration that gives pointers on proper form and technique. These narrations are just long enough for you to understand what you are going to do next and also just enough rest time between exercises (maybe 30 or 40 seconds or so?)

As Christina from Vancouver wrote in her review of November 4, 2006, the exercises in order are:

Reverse lunge and side squat
Spider and pushups
Chest press with hips raised
Bent leg deadlift & bicep curl
Wide squat & upright row
Stiff leg deadlift with lat row
Squat with lat raise, narrow squat with anterior raise
Step ups with overhead press
Tricep kickback with core work
Abs
Stretch

Also check out the extras. The interview with Corey, the exercise physiologist is very informative and the bloopers are just hilarious! Overall, the video is a lot of fun that makes the challenge of working out well worth your while.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, Aug 12 2009

By	B. Shulman "Vegan with style" (Toronto) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

An exhausting fun workout that will leave you drained. Jari is a very good leader on this one, minimal chitchat with the other excercisers, very focused on prompting you the viewer to do your best. Highly recommended.
