The Original Buns of Steel

It is now 10 years later and being that my new husband is a great cook, over the last 8 years I've managed to put on an extra 115 lbs.
I realized it was once again time for The Original Buns of Steel. It has been 4 weeks and I've lost 25 lbs.
ENOUGH SAID.


Squeeze those cheeseburgers out of those thighs!   September 8, 2002

Greg Smithey is awesome! Don't be deceived by the high cheese factor and prevelence of 80's rejects in this video, you will get a great workout. Your buns will actually begin to feel different in your pants after the first few workouts. Just know the pain will go away, and will be well worth it. The only thing that irritates me about this video is that it seems like Greg loses count of the repetitions sometimes. I alternate sides each time I do the workout (left leg first one time, right leg first the next) just to ensure I get an even workout. Far better than any of the later Buns workouts I've done. Greg, although quite a dork, makes you feel sexy and beautiful. It's almost like you have to finish the workout just so you don't let him down!


It really makes you work   November 22, 2002

I've been doing aerobic videos for a long time and this is by far the hardest. Greg gets right down to business right at the start and he makes you work your legs/buns like never before. This video really does work, if you keep up with it, however, one thing that I disliked about his routine is how he'll work one leg to death with several exercises and then switch to the other. I would've liked it better had he alternated each leg more often. After working one leg to death, I would be too exhausted to finish the routine for the other leg, thus one leg would get overworked and the other wouldn't. I recommend pausing between each new set of exercises to work the other leg to have a more balanced routine. Other than that, this video kicks butt.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, WHEN WILL THIS BE AVAILABLE ON DVD? HOWCOME EVERYTHING ELSE CAN BE FOUND ON DVD, BUT NOT THIS???? LET ME JUST TELL YOU, I AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE REVIEWS!!! I HAVE HAD THIS TAPE SINCE COLLEGE, AND I HAVE BEEN THROUGH ALL OF THE OTHERS, TOO. AS HILARIOUSLY 80'S AND CHEESY AS IT SURELY IS, THE "ORIGINAL" IS THE BEST! IT IS THE ONLY ONE THAT DOESN'T CONTAIN 3 MILLION REPS OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF SQUATS! (I HATE SQUATS AND THEY HURT MY KNEES) I AM ACTUALLY CONTEMPLATING BUYING A VCR JUST SO I CAN DO MY TAPE AGAIN!!!! PLEASE GET THIS RECORDED ON TO DVD... PLEASE?!!!?
