"Bob Greene is the quintessential fitness and nutritional expert and his name has become synonymous with exercise programs that motivate people and deliver results," said Gaiam President of Entertainment and World Wide Distribution, William S. Sondheim. "The new DVDs will incorporate Bob's experience as one of the best trainers in the world; the motivational techniques that have helped thousands successfully better their overall health, and his knowledge of metabolism and weight loss."

Shot in picturesque Santa Barbara, CA, "Total Body Makeover" is an 8-week progressive program of simple and effective fitness exercises designed to improve range of motion. The program is created for all levels of fitness, including the beginner with no prior experience. The first week of the program starts with only one hour of training per week, using the exerciser's body weight and light dumbbells.

"Gaiam and I share the philosophy that everyone inherently has the ability to make beneficial improvements to their lives, they just need the right tools and motivation," said Bob Greene. "My new DVD is intended not just to improve how one looks, but also how they feel and how they are able to function every day."

Having worked with many clients including Oprah in his years as a trainer and physiologist, Bob Greene is uniquely positioned to help people through their own weight loss and fitness challenges. He understands the psychology behind overeating and the struggles that an individual faces when trying to lose weight and get healthy. Bob Greene and Gaiam are creating more than just a workout DVD, but a healthy lifestyle program.

The bonus material on the DVD lets fans "meet" Bob and learn from him. Included are behind-the-scenes interviews, stories from people who have worked with Bob, motivational techniques, diet plans, nutrition tips, and more.

The DVDs will be available online and in stores wherever DVDs are sold.
