I only gave this 4 stars because I only needed a little motivation. I am a very active, high energy person. I injured myself and had to take time off from regular workouts. I was going to therapy and was frustrated that it took almost 6 months for the pain to go away. I WANTED to go to the gym but just had NO motivation. This tape helped me to get refocused. It is very encouraging which is what I think I needed. I also looked at it as, the tape can't do it alone. It's helping me, but I can't come back and listen to it, looking inside me again and seeing that I failed to make it to the gym. It worked as a partner in that way and was extremely helpful. HOWEVER - The subliminal side is NOT helpful for me. At first I found the music soothing but recently, it has been making me very aggitated! I'm not sure what that is all about but I still thoroughly enjoy the side without the music and it's still working for me.

ok , I was tired and frustrated when I bought this.. I wanted to lose weight and start exercising but had no motivation and it was raining here DAILY for a month!

I impulse bought this and regretted it 10 minutes later... but decided what's done is done...

When it arrived I listened to it the first night and promptly passed out in 10 minutes (I am an insomniac! so WOW!) -- I woke up at 6am (and NOT a morning person) and couldn't WAIT to listen again...

I had coffee by 6:30am and worked out to my new leslie sansone walking video by 7am

HOLY COW! I listen to it every day...

It's not a magic pill... there are none! but it BOOSTS your motivation and makes you feel good!

I also bought a subliminal tape for eating healthy (Slim something) AND THAT IS AWESOME To listen to while grocery shopping- you feel great and relaxed and buy HEALTHY FOOD!
