DVD : The Y Plan - Before And After Pregnancy
Rating: 
- Very dated
This is a very dated exercise dvd and very cheesy - I'm looking for a different one instead.
Rating:
- Worn out my video version!
I first had this when I was pregnant with my first in 1997. Although the outfits are dated now the routines haven't. I've used a lot of Rosemary Conley and Beverley Callard DVD's between pregnancies and this particular DVD is very similar to the styles of these two other instructors.
The Y Plan is split into 4 sections. Toning and aerobics for trimesters 1 & 2 and then slower focused exercises and a relaxation section for trimester 3 and the postnatal workout (individual exercise section are only 12 minutes but will get you warm and mildly huffed and puffed). I'm not into celebrity high glamour super sweaty aerobics. If you aren't either and are looking for something more moderately-fit-girl-nextdoor friendly then you'll probably love this too.
Rating: - The Y plan sees you through your pregnancy
I used this DVD ( then a video) for three pregnancies and have lent it to several mums-to-be. I am not a sporty type but did want to be fit during pregnancy. I never managed to use the part for the first trimester but it didn't make any difference as you can start at whatever part you like/or is suitable for you, so it's not too late to start even if you're well into your pregnancy.
The exercises are easy to copy and well explained and there is a commentary that is specifically designed to help you understand your body and how it works at this special time.
The relaxation in the third trimester is great and I used it when not pregnant sometimes!
Once the baby is born, it's hard to get out for a walk/run/swim or whatever so the final chapter really helps you get back into shape.
I like the Y-plan because it is realistic and you don't have to be an Olympic athlete to achieve the exercises and it only takes a few minutes out of your day.
