Excellent workout! January 30, 2003 Tina Williams (Marshville, NC United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I had this video in the early 90's along with several other Buns of Steel 2000 videos but gave them to my sister when I had my first baby since I didn't think I would ever have time to exercise again. The aerobic section in the first half makes you feel like you're dancing instead of exercising. The toning section has great exercises and with three instructors alternating with their different styles, the workout doesn't get boring. I am thrilled to have the Buns of Steel series back in my workout collection.
Platinum series March 15, 2004 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
What I like about this video and other videos in the Buns of Steel 2000 Platinum Series is the specific workout plan; knowledgeable, fun instructors; and length (50 minutes). One of my pet peeves about exercise videos is the smiling people behind the instructor who add nothing to the experience. With the platinum series team, you have three instructors who each lead different intervals of the segment and effectively work different parts of target area. They give pointers and guide users on using the correct technique to do the exercises correctly. You will not become bored and wonder "when will this be over?" Part of the challenge of the series is learning the choreography, but when you get it, it's an awesome workout. Also, if time is short users can do part of the workout one day and the other part another day. I have all but one video of the entire series (which I'm in the process of getting) and I love them.
Tamilee, you let me down! February 4, 2005 Katherine (Portland, OR) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I loved both Abs of Steel and Buns of Steel 7, both featuring Tamilee Webb, so I bought Buns of Steel 2000 with confidence. Ooops! I thought it was pretty bad. The step aerobics segment is only twenty minutes long, not thirty as I was hoping. The first third with Tamilee was okay, but the other two-thirds of the aerobics segment is led by two ladies who are simply not clear about how and when the moves are going to transition and what they are once you're doing them. At one point, when Donna calls the moves it almost sounds like a joke, her instructions are so fast and meaningless ("Now right, now left, up-up, step-step...") The moves themselves ranged from decent, to silly, to unneccesarily complicated and inefficient. In spite of all this, for variety I do use the tape, but I alter many of the moves from cha cha cha-ing to knee or leg lifts to make me cardio-challenged instead of chorus line ready. I admit that I didn't look at the remainder of the tape, because I got the tape solely for its aerobic program.
Great workout June 29, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Buns of Steel 2000 is a challenging, effective glute and leg workout that combines cardio, stretching, and toning. The music and clothes are good for a laugh--very 80s, high socks and thong leotards--but the moves hold true even in 2005. The cardio section feels like dancing. The instructors and the moves rotate enough to keep your attention. Finally, the toning has GOT to work--at least, two days after doing it for the first time, my legs are still SO SORE! A great, fun workout.
It's only a penny, and one that's tails up at that May 13, 2008 Em Es (the loser's lounge) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The exercise video PLATINUM SERIES BUNS OF STEEL 2000 is available used for just one cent. Breaking into two parts - one an aerobic routine, the other toning - that's half a penny per great workout. Plus, BUNS OF STEEL 2000 features Tamilee Webb, Donna Richardson and Tracy York - one-third a penny per beautiful exercise instructor. You can alternate between burning calories with the aerobic BUNS OF STEEL 2000 segment and building muscle with the toning part. Or, if you dare, do both. The toning exercises are tougher than they look. My only complaint about BUNS OF STEEL 2000 is it's essentially a "live" shoot. With three instructors teaching, at times two speak at once, neither understandable. A few sound edits could fix that but the skinflint producers let the mistakes stand. Then there's blown shots. As one instructor explains a new exercise move, the image we see is, for instance, a close-up that does not show everything Tamilee Webb, Donna Richardson or Tracy York says to do. Once again, a couple of edits could present the proper image, but a buck's a buck. Speaking of showing everything, thank God for the big beautiful bottom of Tamilee Webb and how much of it her sexy thong leotard and flesh-colored stockings reveal in PLATINUM SERIES BUNS OF STEEL 2000. Tamilee gives us plenty of peeks at that perky posterior, especially in the aerobics segment. But(t) as(s) if to save the best for last, towards the end (tee-hee) of the toning segment there's a backward kick exercise; you have to see Tamilee's tush to believe it! With Tamilee Webb's backside, it's all upside! Tamilee Webb even remarks that her breathtaking behind is "where all my weight is" during the BUNS OF STEEL 2000 toning segment. I wish we could see her face as she says it, but it's another instance where the camera is on the wrong subject. As Tamilee makes her candid admission about that rear I revere, the video's showing the other girls.
