Gunnar Peterson's Core Secrets: 25 Minute Full Body Workout and Accelerated Core Training

I've only used the 25 minute Full Body Workout, but have done regularly for the last 4 years, every other day. It takes about a half hour (with set up and minor furniture shifting) but I can do this in the privacy of my home and I always feel great afterwards. Having looked at the Accelerated Core Training video, I am a little reluctant to invest the extra time and effort, especially seeing that some of the exercises might be potentially a bit too difficult for me. The 25 Minute Workout provides just enough all around work and coupled with the fact that I generally double the number of reps in the video and use hand weights for all the required steps, I feel that this is just about the perfect routine to maintain muscle tone and fitness. On my "off" days, I'll generally get in a brisk walk of about 1 hour. Simple and effective.

I started off with the 25 minute Full Body Challenge and after a couple of months started doing the Accelerated Core Training. I was amazed at the results I got! I have lost 42 lbs. and gained muscle all over! I do supplement with 1 to 2 miles of walking every day. But it is amazing what you can do to transform your body if you just commit 1 hour a day consistently (I work out 6 days a week) for 6 months. The reason I was able to "stick" with this exercise program, I believe, is because it was NOT HARD. It seemed easy, which of course is why I continue to find more Gunnar Peterson DVD's, to keep challenging myself. Good luck to anyone who begins this. Stick with it and you will be surprised!

This is a great addition to a work-from-home solution without a gym membership. I use my Gorilla 4x6 yoga mat and a 65cm Swiss Ball. I'd add two foam yoga blocks and a small set of free weights.

I have been using the Core Secrets:25 Minute and 45 min Full Body Workouts since 2006 whenever I want to tone up. I just purchased a copy of them for my friend for Christmas that is looking to lose weight. Gunnar Peterson knows what he is doing and anyone that uses this product WILL see results. They are fun to do and you will be happy with how you look and feel. SO HAPPY to have found this when I did. I would recommend it to EVERYONE. Seriously. LOVE IT!!!

I have used this product at my exercise group and it is great! I bought this copy to have at home so my 10 year old son and I can do this together. He's not old enough for the gym but needs to lose weight. Plus I get to spend time with him; which is good for both of us! Thanks for getting it to me so quickly.

This is a great workout. I usually walk about an hour a day and due to an injury was unable to walk as I normally did. I went back to this workout and it really does work those muscles. You don't think you are getting that much until the next day or so. It seems too easy but it works. Sometimes "More" isn't always "Better". I do the Accelerated Workout.

I ordered this DVD for the 25 minute workout which it is advertised as offering both the 25 minute workout and the accelerated core training. The seller switched out the 25 minute workout with a fundamentals DVD instead. I'm very disappointed and shocked at the dishonesty. I will be returning the item.

So far so good..... completed the 25 minute dvd 4 times, and felt like I had worked out afterwards. Looking forward to the 45 minute dvd when I am Stronger. Didn’t mind the 80’s styling, I actually thought it was fun:)!!!

Had a copy before but lost it. Best workout did I've ever done. Can feel results within a week
