Question If I love Slim Series Cool It Off Express...

is Debbie's Total Body Solution worth getting? Does anyone have this one and can you tell me more about it?

What else is just as good to stretch everything out in less than 30 minutes?

Thanks in advance!

The stretch part of Jane Fonda's Light Aerobics & Stress Reduction. Hands down. It's similar to Cool It Off imho. It's on youtube https://youtu.be/6tJflKLu6zo

This is nothing like Cool Down Express. This is intended to rehab injuries and it runs about 15 per body part. Some of the exercises are good but it more about stabilization of the area than a stretch.

It's been awhile since I've done it but, yeah I think so. That's the way I used it before adding in flexibility work daily.

TBS is not like CIOx.

what about the old Slim & Limber from Si6? it's also on the Keep It Up Disc.

it clocks in at around 14 min.

Debbie also has the 60-min Cool It Off from slim series. it's longer, but you can always do what you can and continue later.

if you like athletic stretch that's <30 min, here's some oldies:
Madeleine Lewis AM PM Stretch (2, 25-min stretches, and a bonus 20 min)
Madeleine's walking kit also came with a stretch workout using a strap
Tamilee's stretching 2-DVD set; each is 30 min

I love A.M. & P.M. Stretch!
If you have the Fé Fit set, Stretch Flow 1 & 2 are pretty good too.

Do you have Focus T25. I had this for over 2 years and never did the stretch. Did it about 6 months ago and has become a favorite! This is more of an athletic stretch but feels this one hits my hip flexors more than anything else. this clocks in at 25 minute. I also love Project You Yoga- this is about 20 minutes and a little more Yoga inspired, but has a nice stretchy flow to it. Also to feel really stretch Kathy Smiths Rejuvenation set with the stretching band is great and hits everything.

Thanks to the OP for this thread, and to all those who mentioned these great stretch DVDs! I sleep so much better after a bedtime stretch.

Yes, cool it off express is perfect and athletic stretching is held for perfect length of time!
