Okay, I’ve recently worked out using this particular online video media once. Consequently I can’t say much about long-term effect. But I did have a good work out. At this time there are five or so classes within the video that you can choose and also add to your work out. I added all of them. I agree with some other clients that Bob is certainly a good looking gentleman to look at. His voice sounds like Ryan Seacrest, or perhaps overall he feels like Ryan. Anyway, it’s not easy, at least for me, to be able to follow all of the physical exercises. Some of them are just a real challenge to your muscles. I do not see it a lot of fun though. You need to maintain some positions for a longer time than you want and it is a discomfort. But overall I identified it simple to adhere to the entire work out which usually is about an hour or so. This is by far the hardest. The first time I tried it, I was in agony the entire time! Although when I finished, I felt extraordinary. I really love the cool down. more info

Great Yoga tape

I’ve never purchased a Yoga video before and wasn’t sure what to expect but I love it. It’s a great workout! I’m sweating like crazy by the time I’m done and I just love Bob!
BUY IT NOW!

I LOVE my Weight Loss Yoga dvd. I’m no work out novice, but I do own my fair share of work out dvds. This is by far the hardest. The first time I tried it, I was in agony the entire time! But when I finished, I felt incredible. I really love the cool down. I would recommend this to beginners or for those of us who are not the most physically fit of human beings. It’s easy enought to follow, but you can feel it working every step of the way. I own several other Biggest Loser work out dvds and I really like how they have “real people” doing the moves with you. It really makes you feel like if they can do it, so can I. I also really enjoy Bob’s instruction. He’s extremley positive, which I like.
Great intermediate workout
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I have been doing yoga, off and on, for over ten years. Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised that this DVD actually taught me a new pose (awkward airplane…great for your core). I have been to many different yoga classes and have watched many yoga videos and DVDs, but this is the first DVD I found that incorporates light weights and a medicine ball into practice. I like the additions of the weights; it keeps the workout fresh.
As previous reviewers have noticed, going from plank to downward dog endlessly can be boring, but it’s so good for your abs, and I hate crunches.
Whoa!!!

What a suprising workout this was! I have never done yoga and this was a tough but simple exercise! Muscles burning like crazy!! I really liked it!! I think I will see some good results with this!
The first one I’ve stuck with!

This is the first workout video I’ve ever stuck with through all of the “levels” in the last 15 years of working out at home! I started from a very low level of physical fitness, so I’m going at a slower pace than “recommended.” (The DVD recommends to do the workout 4-5 days per week, with 2 weeks per level). I’m using it 3 days per week (as I’m sore enough that I need a rest day in between), and have done 3 weeks per level – but I’m finishing Week 8 now and next week will be my last week on Level 3 before I move to the Maintenance level. The changes in my strength and flexibility are measurable and quite frankly, amazing to me. This workout isn’t easy, but it builds my confidence more than the huffing-and-puffing cardio style workouts. I’m dripping sweat by the time I’m done, yet feel completely relaxed. In just this past 2 months, my balance has improved, my strength has increased by what feels like leaps and bounds, and I can now touch my toes! I haven’t been able to touch my toes in years! I’d say this workout is geared towards beginners, as the moves are doable even by “big people” like me. Even though the people in the video are all former Biggest Loser contestants/winners, it’s nice to see them shaking and struggling through some parts just like I do (except for Ally! Man, she is a MACHINE! Go pink team!) Bob Harper is encouraging (though whenever I’m doing the Awkward Airplanes in Level 2, I typically curse him as a sadist). 8 weeks into using this DVD, my motto is now, “I live for corpse pose!” I can’t say enough good things about this workout. I believe that someday I’ll be saying that it changed my life.
BEST yoga video!

I have been looking for a yoga video for over two years. I have gotten about 4 or 5, because they get great reviews but the workouts are so boring, too long and i don’t do them. I have done this one twice in two days, it is that good! I love this video and skipped to week 5-6 because I wanted a hard workout and have done yoga for years, it was perfect. I loved how fast paced it was, and the ab workout is the best too.
I got this dvd for my brother who just had back surgery b/c I am sure that the week 1-2 will be modified enough for him to start working on building a strong core and recovery.
Awesome workout!!

I consider myself to be at an intermediate to advanced level when it comes to yoga/ pilates and other workouts. I was concerned this would not be tough enough of a workout, boy was I wrong!! I attend yoga and pilates classes at my gym several times a week and this had me sweating and grunting just as much as any class! Bob has you hold the moves long enough that you feel the burn and stretch, but you flow through the movements at a pace that keeps you interested. I find many yoga dvds boring, and this one definetely was not! I think it would be great for any level exerciser. I also love that you can customize the workout to your needs and time that you have available. This is definetly my favorite yoga dvd!
Really, really good workout

I’m new to yoga (new year’s resolution) and I’m so glad that I picked this one as 1 of the 2 yoga DVDs I got. I would have never guessed that I could get so sore without having to use any weights, no crazy cardio etc…just my body “and Bob”, heh. I’m doing this 2-3 times a week, in rotation with other Biggest Loser trainer DVDs. I WILL be in swimsuit shape by June
great yoga/pilates dvd for all

I was skeptical on how a yoga dvd title could include the words “weight loss” but after doing this video I totally get it. I have never done any serious yoga before and I am a complete novice and I LOVE this DVD. Bob (the instructor *love him*) is excellent on giving instructions on what to do and how to do it.
Try this DVD. Dont think you can lose weight doing yoga? WRONG. First time I did this DVD my sister and I were sweating like crazy (and shes in good shape). The next day you will be feeling how much work you did. I had (and still have) muscles hurting that I didnt even know I used. TRY IT!

Region 2?
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
Can’t watch it. I live in US, and I got a region 2 DVD (Europe). Good job Amazon. Not.
Great workout, seeing results in under 2 weeks

Unlike most yoga workouts, this one makes you sweat and makes you feel all the muscles you have. There are some poses that are a bit rough on your wrists but just be sure to roll your wrists when possible and you should be just fine. For those who whined about this not being a beginning workout, I completely disagree. It is very much a beginner’s workout as you have many alternative poses that still make you sweat. It is your own fault that you tried to keep up with the instructor when you physically weren’t ready yet.
Fabulous!

Bob’s biggest loser yoga weight loss is so fabulous! Just buy it! I have recommended this workout to friends and family. Those who have followed my advice have been thrilled! This is a great yoga workout!
Should be called “Kick butt Yoga”

As recommended, I bought the “Weight Loss Yoga” dvd to compliment the “Boot Camp” video. I really wanted a Biggest Loser yoga dvd and boy did they deliver. I am very very happy with both of these dvd’s. The yoga workout makes me so happy cuz I am pouring sweat through out the workout. Those downward dogs with one leg raised are sheer torture heaven and the plank position a/k/a pushups, well there could not be a better ab workout than this. Plank works my lower pooch area beautifully and even though I have to modify a little, or some would say alot, I know that because I am giving it my all, soon I will be able to do plank without the modifiers. And side plank, well what can be better than that? If anyone says they are not challenged in this workout I’d have to say that they must be in awesome shape. One thing I am not sure about and that is how I am supposed to work the boot camp and the yoga together. I don’t know if your supposed to alternate days or do both in one day, so I do the Boot Camp Maximum result workout, about 30 min., then I follow it with Weight loss yoga level one for another 30 min. What can I say, I like to workout. If you are looking for a more mellow yoga workout that flows but does have many of the same poses, try “Yoga Conditioning for Weight Loss” with Suzanne Deason. It shows 4 women working at different levels, I very much enjoy this one for it’s more laid back approach on my off days from heavy cardio and grunt workouts. I love it all!
