Ana Caban's BodyBand workout does just that for me. I have been practicing Pilates for 12 years, initially in a class setting, followed by Videos and DVDs. This workout is always challenging to me. This may be due to the fact that I can increase the intensity by increasing (or decreasing - for abdomen work) the tension in the bodyband. <br /> <br />It is oxymoronic, but workouts with Ana Caban (or Moira Stott or Hilary Burnett) are *relaxing* to me, even if they are intense (intermediate or advanced). Knowing the Pilates "poses" in a DVD allows me to better focus on form, and correct form yields better results. I own approximately 15 Pilates workouts. This is one of my favorites and I use it often. I travel a good bit for business. When I do, I always bring this workout. <br /> <br />Length: Approximately 30 minutes <br />Level of Difficulty: Intermediate <br />Results: Consistent use of this DVD once per week will result in well defined biceps, triceps and deltoids; increased abdominal and back strength; and toning in hips, upper thigh and calf. <br /> <br />Bottom line: a great workout, well worth the time and the price Rating: 5 / 5

The workout is relaxing but seems to hit all muscle groups. Rating: 5 / 5

However, I think it was a little too expensive for what you get. After just viewing the video twice, I had all the moves memorized. Rating: 4 / 5

But am I the only one whose hands hurt from being squeezed by the bands? Rating: 4 / 5
