Using BodyFlex for about A Month Reviewer: Amy       07-13-2004 I have just started using Body Flex about a month ago. I know it seems like an outrageous thing to do, but I really enjoy this program and have noticed positive effects. I have a friend who does aikido and he said that the breathing technique used in Body Flex was familiar to him. I have only been doing it once a day and skip one or two days a week, so I'm not really doing it as much as I should be. I found that the first week I felt extremely fatigued,like I had been doing heavy aerobics daily. I also experienced the soreness in muscle groups like you get when you lift weights. I have lost a few inches all over and have noticed toning as well. I plan to step up the program and get to doing it twice a day because although I was fatigued at first, I did notice increased energy while exercising and for several hours afterward. The exercises did become much easier to do after the first week as promised by the program. I experienced a lot of coughing at first, but this as well is reduced after your body becomes accustomed to the increased oxygen. I feel great using it and would recommend it to others to try. But like I said, I have only been doing it a month. I don't know how much I've lost, but I'm wearing pants that I had put away because I "grew" out of them. I could not in any way zip them before and now I wear them comfortably. I have not been doing any other weight loss programs in conjunction, although I do watch my fat intake and I don't smoke or drink alcohol, tea, or coffee. I am trying to decide whether to start doing the Body Flex twice a day or once a day plus walking/jogging.

Just Curious Reviewer: unknown       07-13-2004 Just saw an infomercial on tv about Body Flex (not Body Blade). The primis is using accelorated breathing to lose inches. I've have tried Calenathics and it is not impact based on contracting mucsles and it is very good and tires you out like aerobics. However this BODY FLEX thing is suppose to be based on breathing in different positions. Lots of claims about the lost inches and people going down 3 and 4 dress sizes. Is this just a firming technique? Is this for real? Anyone tried it?

It works for me Reviewer: Marguerite       07-10-2004 I have both Body Flex I&II videos. I was skeptical. Well, I made the purchase anyway. Greer Childers is the 52 year old woman who attended a spa for two weeks where she learned about the breathing techniques that burn fat. I listened to her presentation four times on HSN before I was convinced. Making all of the loud breathing sounds was weird at first. I committed to doing the exercises with Greer for 15 mins twice a day for a week. Believe it or not, I lost 10 inches off of my body (arms, thighs, bust, waist,etc) total the first week. Okay, I thought this was a fluke. I'll try it again for another week, I thought. I lost 6 inches the next week! I'm on my third week. I measure tomorrow. All I know is that my clothes are too big. It sounds too good to be true, but Childers made a believer out of me.

I ordered Body Flex Reviewer: Jeremy       06-23-2004 I recently ordered Body Flex....why not ? I've tried everything else! Hopefully it works as well for me as it has for others

I have the Body Flex system Reviewer: Blackberry       03-13-2004 I have had the Body Flex system since last summer, early fall. I fell in love with it!! After sitting at home and watching the infomercials, I decided to order. It does not lie. After the first 2 weeks, I lost 15 inches throughout my entire body. My mid- section has always been the hardest for me, even before I had my daughter. But when I saw that I lost 3.5" from my upper abs, 2" from my waist and 2.5" from my lower abs in the first week, I wanted to cry. I found something that works ( not to sound like to infomercial) but it does. Every week I started the see that my waist size was getting smaller, my hips started to come in, with very little effort. However, I wasn't losing weight, which really put me in a funk, but I could see that I was losing inches. Nonetheless, my "workouts" got less and less until I didn't do it anymore. The infomercials didn't show that much on t.v. anymore, So I was less motivated to do the tape. Watching the commercials got me to get the tapes in the first place and now they were gone. Then I started to notice more and more infomercials about this Tae Bo. So, again from infomercials; I got the tapes. I've been doing it for about 2 weeks, 5-6 days a week. IMHO, I like the Body Flex better. Don't get me wrong, I have heard and read a lot of good things about the TaeBo, but in just about every case scenario, it took 6 weeks to see results. Some claim 3 weeks. But with Body Flex, you see results the first week. My logic: one week sonuds A LOT better that 6. I really wanted to incorporate the two together. But when I sat down and didn't use the Homer Simpson side of my brain to think, you get the same quality of workout from the non-sweaty, non-gyrating Body Flex as you do with the Tae Bo. I think I will still do the TB for the fun, but I'm going to stick with the non-dictative methods of Greer Childers.
