Slim in 6 |
 |
Introduction & Overview |
Slim in 6 is a set of at-home workout DVDs that promises to "reshape your body in 6 weeks." In fact, some of the advertisements claim that users may lose 25 pounds in this amount of time. Though, we are always hesitant to believe such big promises, but feel that adding a workout routine to a weight loss plan may increase fat burning and improve muscle tone.
There are many DVDs and VHS at-home workouts on the market. When it comes to diet and exercise, dieters are never short on options. However, we will have to take a closer look at this product to determine if it is likely to generate the results it promises, and if it may suit the needs of a dieter looking to begin an exercise plan.

 | Concept |
The creator of this program is Debbie Siebers, who has reportedly been working in the diet and fitness industry for over 20 years. Her Slim in 6 program is one of a few, and dieters who have used her other workouts may like her style and look forward to the routines showed on these DVDs. The complete DVD set comes with three separate DVDs that offer different workouts. The DVDs include: Start it Up, Ramp it Up and Burn it Up.
Along with the DVDs, this program comes with several weight loss tools that are meant to monitor and track success. These tools include: a guidebook, nutrition guide, motivational calendar and a tape measure. In addition are the "free bonuses" which include: an abdominal workout DVD, a flexibility training DVD and a journal and shopping list planner.
These workouts are said to provide cardiovascular training and light resistance work. These DVDs may work well for fitness beginners who are unsure where to start when exercising, and who appreciate the direction that planned workouts offer. However, over time, users may grow bored or become more advanced than the workouts offered in this set.

 | Website |
There is a product website posted online for Slim in 6. When visiting, individuals may learn about the background of the creator of these workouts and read more about the special offers and bonuses that come with this program. Currently, the website is offering a 6-week money back guarantee. We are pleased to see that they offer a guarantee, but feel that the trial time should be longer to give dieters ample time to test the DVD and return it to the manufacturer if unsatisfied.
According to the web description, the total value of this program, including the free bonuses, is $375, but it is now being sold for around $60. Individuals may also buy it with payments of $20. We find it very unlikely that this DVD set and free gifts are worth $375, and suspect that manufacturer may be trying to make dieters feel they are getting a good deal with the still high cost of $60.

 | Alternative Options |
An at-home workout may not fit the needs of every dieter. Some may enjoy the convenience it offers, but others may prefer to workout outside or go to the gym. We wish to note that a healthy diet and a regular exercise program are vital when it comes to weight loss, but we feel that results may be augmented through the use of the right herbal formula.
Currently, there are products on the market that offer complete formulas, which we consider to be a proven appetite suppressant and patented fat burner. Such a product may control portions and daily calories, as well as attack stored fat.

 | Conclusion |
Everyone is well aware of the dangerous health risks that are linked to obesity. Studies have shown that excess fat may lead to diabetes, cardiovascular disease and in some extreme cases, death. Even a slight decrease in weight has been shown to lower these risks and improve health. The Slim in 6 workout plan may be a good start for dieters new to working out. Regular use of the DVDs may show results over time.
Again, we believe the use of an herbal supplement may increase results. We feel that products with the above-mentioned formula are the most effective, and encourage individuals to find a product that comes with a free sample, so they may test a product before purchase.
