Brazil Butt Lift – Workout DVD
I got this about a week ago and I’ve been working out daily. I’ve been trying to do all the dvds but I found a favorite and I’m having a hard time tearing myself away from that one now. The box includes a tape measure, workout band, pencil (LOL) and diet plan. I loved the booklet “fat burning foods.” All of the food looks delicious and the recipes seem simple. I have not actually made any of them. All the other stuff in it seem gimmicky like the 6 day supermodel slim down plan.
First dvd:
Basics – instructional on the steps used in the following work out routines
Bum Bum – squats, lunges, leg lifts, etc.
Bum Bum rapido – quicker version of bum bum workout
Bum Bum Live – one on one training.
Lots of lunges, squats, etc. in an aerobic type of workout.
2nd dvd:
High & tight
-standing work with bands
-floor work with bands
-floor work with ankle weights
Sculpt — 45 minute workout using weights. Excellent workout. This one does include upper body exercises with weights.
This dvd is my favorite. I love using the bands and I can feel it burning in my thigh muscles and my butt. I love the floor work and I haven’t seen too many workout programs with this floor work included. I can feel it working.
3rd dvd:
Cardio Axe — a 45 min high cardio workout with a bit of dance steps in it.
Tummy tuck — very traditional ab work, situps, crunches, leg lifts, etc.
Overall I think it’s a great system. I love all 3 DVDs and the workouts. My favorite is Sculpt. They do go from being in the studio to the beach constantly and at first I found it annoying but now I got used to it.
I could have done without all the beachbody commercials in the rest of the dvd. They have an advertisement for almost everything Beach Body sells But that was just a minor annoyance. I’m glad I bought this one and I’m working out everyday. I recommend it. I think it is worth it.

I have never written a review before today but, the person who rated this program as 1 star inspired me to. I have been an exercise enthusist for 2 1/2 years now and this program is one of the best. I’ve never done any beach body stuff before. Got this program 3 weeks ago and have already dropped 2 sizes in my slacks. It’s not easy by any means so if you’re not willing to work hard and stay with it, don’t buy it! Three weeks in and I’m still sore daily (in a good way)! I haven’t even allowed myself to “graduate” to using the exercise band and ankle weights and I’ve rescuplted many parts of my body more so than any other program I’ve done in 2 years. If you want something different and fun and have the bonus of a great “bum” then this is the program. This program is tuff, the energy is inspiring and the direction is spot on. If you truly want to change the way you feel and look and are willing to work hard, get this program!

I have only done one of the workouts in this set, I just recieved it yesterday. Wow! It looks and feels like it really targets the butt. Can’t wait to update this review after a week or two. The first workout was Bum Bum and it was fast paced, think it will take a couple of times to master the moves, but I already feel it. The instructor, Leandro? I think. He sounds a lot like Borat from those movies, it makes me laugh and smile when I hear him talk. But it isn’t really annoying, just funny if you stop and listen. But he does talk alot and cues you to keep everything tight. Music was good and not at all cheesy, so that helps. The 30 minutes really flew by! Lots of lunges and leg work, I hate lunges with a passion and really dread them, but somehow he makes them bearable. Do this 5 times a week and watch what you put in your mouth and there is no way you won’t see results. I look forward to updating this review to tell you if it’s true or not!

I’m just starting my second week of the program to help tone pear shapes, but after only one week, I’ve already noticed a difference — and that is without making any changes in my eating! I will be sure to update my review after completing the full one-month rotation, but for now I wanted to record my initial thoughts in case others are thinking about purchasing this program to use this summer.
As a bit of background, I’m an advanced exerciser who usually uses Cathe Friedrich or Jari Love for my weight work, and, especially after doing Shaun T.’s Insanity program last summer, I was worried that Brazil Butt Lift might be too easy — but it’s not at all! The cardio workouts are much shorter than I’m used to doing (the cardio workouts range from 30-45 minutes long) so I had been worried that I would gain weight, but I’m noticing an allover tightening effect instead. In fact, the Tummy Tuck workout is one of the hardest ab workouts I’ve ever done.
The workouts are a lot of fun, and I love how they jump back and forth between the group being filmed in an indoor dance studio and the beach. The bright colors and the beach scenes make this perfect for thinking about looking good in a bathing suit for the summer. In addition, Leandro’s energy is infectious, and I love his accent and enthusiasm. Many of the moves also come from samba and capoeira, which is fun for me since I did capoeira for several years.
If you’re someone who doesn’t like dance workouts, you might not like the Cardio Axe workout since it’s very dancey, but it’s a lot of fun and I would definitely attempt it a few times before writing it off! There is no way that I can wiggle or shake my hips in the same ways that the girls in the workout can, but I still have fun (and feel sexy) trying to move the way that they do!
As mentioned above, I will be sure to update this review after I finish the whole month of the pear rotation, but after just one week, I’m already impressed!
UPDATE ON 5/28/10: I just finished my third week of the pear rotation, and have noticed definite improvements! My thighs and saddlebags have trimmed down, as has my tush. I’ve been able to fit back into pants that had been a bit too snug in the rear end. I’ll be sure to update again with my measurements after I finish my last week.
UPDATE ON 6/3/10: I finished the program today, and took my measurements and am incredibly pleased with the results! I ended up losing just a few inches overall, but my abs and rear end are in the best shape they’ve ever been in! Even though I’m small, I’ve always been cursed with a large, Italian rear end, and today I passed the pencil test — meaning that the pencil that this set comes with didn’t stay under my “overhang.” I’ve never been able to get rid of that back overhang until now, no matter what I’ve done. I’ve also noticed a big reduction in my cellulite, and I think that the ab definition I have is because of all the ab work that is incorporated into all of the workouts. I can’t say enough good things about this workout!

The trainer is great–very personable and charming. And he really knows how to keep the workout going so you never do one move until your sick of it. The music is lively and helps make the program fun. My favorite routine is High and Tight–you’ll walk around the next day with a sore “Bum-Bum” (as they say in Brazil), which you won’t mind because it’s how you know those exercises are definitely doing something good to your backside. I used this product for about 5 weeks so far and have absolutely noticed my behind and thighs getting tighter and more shapely. My balance is also better (you do lots of moves that make you balance and strengthen your core). I thought this program would just focus only on the butt, but he does sculpting exercises that also help your arms and the abs routine is challenging and really good. I have many Beachbody programs and this one is now my favorite. (You’ll understand the title of my review after you’ve done a couple of the routines–it’s something he says all the time, along with “Don’t settle for less!”)
