Time Just Flys when you are having fun October 28, 2008 I just received this dvd a week ago, and I love it. This set gives you the workout without the exhaustion. I've bought workout dvd's before and Easily get bored since im not really into excersing. After a long day at work, going to class and then coming home to 3 kids all I want to do is rest, that includes sleeping in as long as I possibly can every morning. Since I purchased this DVD I have made that sacrifice to get up an extra 45 minutes to work out with Sean T and get my dance on. This DVD is great for those just beginning to excercise or even those who are intermediate but I wouldnt reccomend it for those who have been working out for a while and need to increase there workout. Overall this set is great and I have recomended it to all my friends (we are all beginners to the excercise era once we left highschool we left the excercise behind too)
Double it up to get a good burn! October 7, 2008 Pros: Easy to understand and perform exercises, decent music, abs isolated and burned well, option to turn up the music and turn down the speaking. Cons: Too short, Sean T gets cheesy. Overall: A good workout.
Fun but gets old Fast August 26, 2008 I purchased this item after seeing it on infomercials for more than a year. So I finally buckled and purchased it based on the great reviews on Amazon. Here's my take:
PROS: Shaun T is so energetic and enthusiastic that it's actually entertainably laughable. I did these work outs with my sister and male cousin and we spent our first experience with Shaun T laughing. He's truly over the top.
So after the initial trial, we got better at the dance routine and got into the flow of things. It was truly fun to do, and yes it does give you a work out and makes you sweat.
The videos are all really easy to follow along with. Even a person with absolutely no dancing skills (my male cousin) could do it and find some rhythm.
Finally, for the sheer fact that this video gets you off your butt and doing SOMETHING, I give it kudos. If this is what's going to spark some kind of interest in working out, then so be it.
CONS: My BIGGEST frustration with this was the music. First of all it is not hip hop. It is really slow pop music. To top it off, it is low. For some reason Shaun T's voice and the music never find a balance. Either the music engulfs Shaun T's voice or vice versa. Plus I had to put my television's volume to full blast to even hear the music decently (and yes I selected the "Louder" portion on my dvd).
These workouts get old really quick. After about 2 weeks I couldn't stand doing this anymore. It was no longer fun, and I was no longer sweating as much as I did. My body adjusted to the workouts too easily. There was no weightloss after those two weeks either.
And finally... the price. Are you kidding me?? NOT WORTH $120+ No way. Buy it used, or get it on Ebay. I found my entire package there (original) for half the price.
I Love Hip Hop ABS August 25, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have been struggling to get my weight under control for the past three years. Running on the beach , diet pills and gyms, you name it. Not only was I concerned about the change in my body but my energy level was pathetic. One day I was watching a local shopping channel and they were advertising HIp Hop Abs , since I am dance fan it caught my attention. I just started imitating the Tilt Tuck Tighten moves I saw advertised on the TV (much to my husbands viewing pleasure)and within a week I began to see a change! This is absolutely true !My tummy started to get flatter and I didn;t even have the DVD yet! I checked it out on Amazon.Com and ordered AB Sculpt, Fat Burning Cardio and Total Body Burn , for 1/2 the price advertised locally. Within a week I was working out with Shaun T and I haven't stopped since. It's been 6 months and my whole body has changed and people remark and ask me what diet I'm on! Hip Hop Abs targets all my problem areas , legs thighs , tummy and arms . I feel like a new woman . I have so much energy now that I recently took up lawn tennis as a hobby ! The great thing about Hip Hop Abs is that it's fun , the time goes by and you don't realise it because you don't do any one move too long to get bored with it.
I Love Hip Hop Abs
based on jus watching July 30, 2008 i gave this product a four only because you really do get a workout from it. otherwise, i would have rated it three. the music really isnt hip hop at all and i didnt really like it. the moves are very effective but very little in number. in other words, i really wished there were more moves. most of the workouts repeated themselves. other than that the dvd is fun. shaun is great i love him. i will be purchasing the part two to this set and most likely the dance series. hopefully that will have better music and more moves. im not sure tho if i want to purchase his rockin body set.
