One of the most acclaimed celebrity fitness DVDs of recent times, Charlie Brooks’ Before And After Workout finds fitness trainer Dee Thresher putting the former soap star through her paces with a series of five ten minute workouts.

Brooks herself claims to have lost a couple of stone using the routines on the disc already, and it’s easy to believe why. And rather than, as some in the genre choose to do, focusing heavily on the celebrity, this fitness discs puts its firm emphasis on the workout routines. They’re explained clearly, are straightforward to follow, and there’s enough variety to ensure you don’t get bored.

The routines are of varying difficulty, and unless you’re already fighting fit, it’s feasible that you’ll have some trouble with them in the early days. But then that’s the point. And because none of the workouts outstay their welcome, there’s little reason not to stay motivated. Sure, you’ll end up working hard, but there’s nothing on this disc that outstays its welcome.

It’s surprising perhaps to find a fitness DVD that has earned such acclaim, but having followed Charlie Brooks’ Before And After Workout through, the plaudits are well deserved. So if you’ve ever been frustrated by a celebrity workout disc that’s proven to be more about the former than the latter, then this will be a very welcome treat.–Ann Foster

With this in mind, my trainers Jackie and Mark and I have created three complete new fitness sessions for my brand new DVD. We’ve made the most of every second of the workouts, so that each workout only takes 30 minutes! That’s only an hour and a half of exercise a week – doesn’t sound too bad does it?!

Pump

This works the muscles really well and includes small but intensive interval training sessions.

Cardio Box:

This is brilliant and loads of fun to do, as it combines intensive fat burning exercise with some boxing moves.

Core Stability:

This is all about poise, posture, balance and can have a huge impact on your overall health and wellbeing.

Being fit and healthy has given me more energy then I could have ever imagined and I honestly still believe that working out three times a week and eating three healthy meals a day is the best way to get fit and lose weight – it’s that simple!

Plus, as a special treat, there is an option to shut me up and pump up the tunes – just choose the “Mostly Music” option at the start and crank it up! So go for it and make exercise part of your life. It’s done the trick for me!” – Davina
