I would say that even with the 25% off code, at $90 including shipping & tax I probably over-paid, but I saw some nice deals on ebay last week before I received my package.In the original course Hip Hop Abs includes the following workouts: I'm going to stay with the rotation for as long as I'm enjoying them. The background dancers are all perky pretty people in flashy skimpy outfits.īottom line - these aren't serious, get-in-hardbody-shape workouts (no matter what the infomercial might say), but they are LOADS of fun if you're into club-style dancing. the set is quite dark - for a club atmosphere I suppose. the workouts are performed on stage with a live audience. Other elements that may not be to everyone's liking (but I personally didn't mind at all) Disco Groove had some recognizable songs, but otherwise it's just typical non descript hip-hoppy stuff.

The choreo is tons of fun - you DO feel like you're at a party! The weak link by far, though, is the music. I found no problems with his cueing - I understood all the moves even if I wasn't able to perform them all, and he is motivating and energetic. Shaun T is probably not to everyone's taste, but I like him just fine. I would say the intensity of these (the longer ones anyway) is on par with Turbo Jam Cardio Parties, although with any dance workout, it is as hard as you want it to be when you add the "flava". At 41, I consider myself way too old to "get my groove on" in public, so doing this in my living room is great. During the Disco one, I had to pause a few times to catch my breath and "absorb" the choreo.

I like the intensity of these - I consider myself low-advanced cardio-wise but like I said, I've been sick. Now, IMO nothing beats Les Mills' Body Jam in terms of music, variety of styles, and complexity for dance workouts, but I've only been able to acquire a few of these.įor Rockin Body, so far I've done the intro video (15 min), Party Express (25 min), Disco Groove (35 min) and Hard Core Abs (10 min), and I've previewed House this Party (45 min) and Hip Hop (47 min). I think I'll be very happy with my purchase. I've been battling various colds lately and just don't feel very motivated, except for fun dancy stuff, so I took the plunge. I don't have Hip Hop Abs, but I went ahead and got the entire Rockin' Body which arrived this week (with 25% off coupon - thanks Kenny!).
