Your opportunity to work out like a celebrity.,
You may not have heard of Harley Pasternak before, but if you’re a fan of Lady Gaga, Jessica Simpson, Hillary Duff, Kanye West, Katy Perry, Megan Fox, or Robert Pattison, you’re familiar with his work. Pasternak is the personal trainer to all of those celebrities, helping to keep them in the shape they’re in.
Harley Pasternak created the “5-Factor Fitness program” for his celebrity clients, who needed to fit in their diet and workout routines in the middle of their busy work while on tour or on location away from home. His solution included eating simple meals that used 5 ingredients 5 times a day, and doing workout routines in 5-minute sets. In 2005 he published his book, 5-Factor Fitness: The Diet and Fitness Secret of Hollywood’s A-List, and the rest, as they say, is history. Harley Pasternak’s Hollywood Workout is the video game version of his diet and exercise program for the Wii.
I admit, I groaned a little when I hear there was yet another “virtual trainer” Wii title. We’ve seen a string of pretty awful Wii exercise games with “celebrity trainers” from Jillian Michaels to Jenny McCarthy. They all tend to fall along the same patterns: a collection of standard calisthenics routines that are strung together, with some virtual trainer shouting out generic and repetitive phrases like “way to go” and usually some spotty Wii remote tracking.
For the most part Harley Pasternak’s Hollywood Workout tends to fall along the same lines, although there are some improvements worth noting.
When you start the game You type your name and tell the system if you have a Wii Balance Board. If you do, it can measure your weight right away. If not, you’ll enter it manually. From what I can tell, this is all that the Balance Board is used for. You can use hand weights during the exercises or buy something they call a “signature Harley Bar”.
You’re then brought to the main menu. You can choose from the following:
1) Complete Programs. There are basically three “Complete Programs” you can choose that correspond to beginner, intermediate, or advanced. They come in 5 or 10 week lengths. Your choices are:
– Light Body Toning (5 week or 10 week). Ease your way into the Hollywood Workout with this program. Don’t worry, you’ll still achieve some great body shaping and toning!
– Getting Red Carpet Ready (5 week or 10 week). Get that body red carpet ready with this program. This intermediate program includes the exercises contained in the previous program, plus a few more.
– A-List Celebrity Workout (5 week or 10 week). My most intense program! This program adds even more exercises and engages your entire body for maximum activity. Hollywood, look out!
2) Single Workouts. These are 25-minute workouts you can start right way, which have warm up exercises, cool down exercises, and typically 3 individual workout routines in the middle that each last, you guessed it, 5 minutes each. Your choices are:
– Surf `n Sand – Like to surf or paddleboard? Get that body ready to ride the waves with this workout that includes Reverse Flys, Lunges, and the Superman.
– Super Hero – What does it take to prime your body for a life of fighting crime? Find out with this workout that includes Hammer Curls, Jump Squats, and the Superman.

|Hollywood Hero!!!,
Like I said, I’ve been working out with Harley for 2 weeks, and I do not plan on stopping any time soon! I highly recommend this game to ANYONE who wants to get back in shape! Even if you think you are too far out of shape! He makes it easy and fun. And gives you tips on how to do the exercises if you have any issues, like back or joint pains.
There are also all kinds of videos on topics that really help out, from what and how to eat, to what else you can do to help get in shape, and more! Harley’s Hollywood Workout has it all!
