Burn Fat Fast
The Burn Fat Fast DVD is a beginner workout which includes
- 5 minute warm up

Customizable
The DVD can be customized to create the following workouts
- Warm up + cardio + cool down

Warm up
The warm up is easy to follow and all moves are "no impact". It is Denise with two other exercisers, all doing the same movements which include
- Marching
- Squats
- Lunges
- Stretches for the entire body
All of the lower body moves incorporate simple upper body movements as well.
Cardio Segment
The cardio portion of the workout involves little to no impact moves, done by Denise and four other exercisers. All complete the same movements with no modifications. The cardio dance routine is easy to follow with very basic dance type moves. There is a lot of twisting, shaking and easy dance moves to keep the novice exerciser interested.
Strength Workout
The strength routine uses hand held dumbbells with slow, controlled easy to follow exercises. Denise and two exercisers complete the routine with no modifications. Beginners may want to do the routine without weights the first time through, to get used to the movements first without added weight.
Denise hits all the major muscle groups with one set of each exercise. She gives adequate cueing with most movements, explaining which muscles are being worked and how to move the body.
Cool Down
The cool down segment is just Denise, working through stretching moves for each of the muscle groups worked in the cardio and strength segments:
- Legs
- Chest
- Back and low back
- Shoulders
- Biceps and triceps
Good For Beginners
Denise makes a great beginner workout. Her enthusiasm for exercise will help the beginner get through a new program. Her moves are very basic and easy to follow for anyone. The dance steps will be fun and distracting for those that have a challenge completing a workout.
