December 2nd, 2009 by Bodybuilder Karen Voight Pure and Simple Stretch
This safe and gentle approach to stretching is a necessary addition to your fitness regime. Your body will quickly respond with a leaner, longer appearance. Experience the simple pleasure of stretching and get a renewed sense of well-being every time you do it.
5 Stars Excellent stretch in 30 minutes.
As a personal trainer, the hardest part of my job is getting clients to stretch. Most find it boring, others feel it’s a waste of time. The rest try to do stretches but just have no idea what they are actually aiming for or where they should be feeling it. 90% of the people I see stretching (instructors included) have no idea what muscle they are stretching and don’t know where they should be “feeling it”. This video is very simple, undecorated and relaxing. Karen does an impeccable job of cueing the stretches both physically and verbally. You always know exactly what you are stretching, where you should feel it and how hard to push. She also shows how to modify the stretches and sticks with a number of very effective, but not risky stretches. Her voice is soothing, not jarring and the music is simple and quiet. I have viewed some other videos that demonstrate strethes 75% of my clients couldn’t even begin to get into. Karen steers clear of that. Yes, aesthetically, it is an “older” video, but newer is not always better. I give this one my highest recommendation.
4 Stars For simple routine of basic stretches
Everyone wrote great reviews about how this DVD looks & the movements. I just want to add that the pace is very slow & thorough, the music is very soft.
All these stretches can be done by even many people who are inflexible. Those who are flexible should look elsewhere.

3 Stars Pure and Simple is the perfect description
This routine lives up to its title – Pure and Simple. I found this a bit too basic (and boring) even for a beginner. She has a better strecth routine in later offerings. I returned this DVD, and now I’m looking for something a little more challenging – something that makes you feel like you’ve stretched and exercized when done.
2 Stars Don’t force me to watch commercials!
When you put this DVD in the player, a Karen Voight commercial for her other workout DVD’s will play for the first minute. It’s not that long, but it gets to be very annoying. There are other fitness DVD’s like “Perfect Abs” that get right to the workout without commercials or medical disclaimers.
The stretching routine is pretty good, but the beginning commercial really gets on my nerves. I think the Tami Lee stretching DVD may be better.
5 Stars What It Says
This is a really good, easy to follow stretching program. It’s not yoga, just stretching. I do a lot of cardio and my flexibility isn’t great. I’m using this video after my cardio workouts and I’ve also started doing yoga. My flexibility is definitely getting better and my hips and legs are not as achy after my regular workouts.
