Sports reviews of Forza The Samurai Sword Workout: Kick Butt and Get Buff with High-Intensity Sword Fighting Moves by Ilaria Montagnani (DVD)

Customer Review: Great Workout - Not so great DVD
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

For a $30 DVD this is horribly made. There are three important sections on this DVD; the Warm-up, Left Workout, Right Workout, and a couple non-important sections. There is no way to easily navigate directly to the one you want. You can't even start at the beginning of the warm-up because you have to watch the "Forza is amazing" and "Forza changed my life" commentary from the participating workout girls and then the "how to hold the sword" first. You have to manually scan through 6 minutes of fluff to get to the workout/warm up. 2 Stars for the DVD itself. For the price I definitely expected a better quality Product.

On the flip side, for $30, this is an excellent workout that gets better the more you do it. 5+ stars for the workout, I was amazed at how hard it was, but it still kept me wanting to continue and finish - and feel strong!

Overall 4-stars because this is a great and FUN workout. I don't know that you can get much better than swinging a wooden sword in your living room and sweating like crazy! (Keep in mind this IS a workout DVD not an instructional Japanese sword DVD) Definitely would be five stars if the DVD had been chaptered and formatted in a more user-friendly format.
