"I have been working out for many years and tried various instructors. Gilad is by far my favorite due to his excellent instruction, cueing, tips and motivation. His personality is great and he is also in amazing shape which is motivating in itself. His get fit quick system includes 3 cardio and 4 sculpting workouts which I use fairly regularly. The sculpting workouts are great and are the first sculpting workouts by which I have experienced significant results! Other sculpting workouts took me to the point where I began to feel the burn but Gilad's workouts took me beyond that point which is why they are so effective. I find the abs workout to be particularly effective. I highly recommend this set of workouts."

Great workouts keep you coming back

"We bought this one almost a year ago and my wife went from a size 16 to a size 8 (and expects to be in a size 6 by this summer. I lost four inches from my waist.

Gilad keeps you motiviated not only during the program but after it. His eating suggestions have different "levels" of foods (red, green, and yellow) with green being the best. And we like to compete with each other to see who can stay the most green.

The aerobic workouts are well paced, and work, though some do get old. The toning videos are the best. The "Hips, Thighs, and Buns" video is still difficult after almost a year of doing it.

My only complaint is that he filmed them on a public beach (as is his style), but for a system video set that costs as much as this one, I would have expected him to find a more private location with fewer "locals" goofing off in the background. That's a pretty weak complaint, I admit.

Overall, I would suggest this collection to everyone who wants to lose weight."

It really works!

"If you're looking to get your picture on the cover of a muscle & fitness magazine, this is *not* the product for you. However if you're like me and wanted a methodical system of losing extra pounds and putting some tone back into those muscles, I highly recommend the Quick Fit Workout DVDs. By following the suggested schedule, you get get a thorough workout that will definitely help get you into shape. It requires no more than an hour a day (less than that when you're first starting out), and it is easy to split that hour up into two sessions if needed. Following the initial 12-week program, I lost 20 pounds and felt like I had taken a decade off of my age!

The only reason I did not give this program 5 stars is I felt the cardio workouts - particularly "Cardio Classic" - got a little monotonous for my tastes. I still use them, but often substitute another cardio activity such as jogging or even some of Gilad's other DVDs in place of the QFW cardio routines (my favorite is the cardio portion of the "45/45 Split Routine" but be warned that it has a lot of high-impact aerobics).

One day off a week is provided for in the suggested schedule, but after the first six weeks on the program, I found my 45-year old body really feeling exhausted. I decided from that point on I'll take every seventh week off as well. That's not suggested in the program, but my body appreciates the extra rest and it helps keep me motivated for sticking with the system.

So if you find yourself out of shape, I highly recommend this product!"

Gilad is terriffic!

"I've been doing this Quick Fit System for about 6 years now and I love it; it really does work as long as it's followed properly. That said, after having done this for said number of years, you get to notice stuff while working out and some things are quite distracting. I am referring to Brenda Dykgraff's hair in a couple of the toning tapes. Her hair resembles a huge bird's nest on the top of her head, and add to that, her over-dramatization of the moves. In the Chest and Back video, it is clear that she has eyes for Gil. What lady wouldn't? The man is eye candy. Other than Brenda's kissyuppy ways and goofy hair, this series is perfect, right on the money. People have complimented my arms and I've noticed that my jeans look better on, everything basically fits better. The first time I attempted the Hips, Thighs and Buns tape, I was in such pain that I wanted to toss a pineapple at Gilad's head. But, no pain, no gain. I'm referring to the exercise, not the pineapple over the head;-) So, if anyone out there is wanting to try something new in the world of exercise and diet, this is a must. Gilad includes a booklet of his Eat Right Now plan which gives you a list of good foods, okay foods and foods to avoid. Get this; you will find it is so worth it."
