Easy dance steps, not too much hard work.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I bought this DVD to make a bit of a change from the aerobics DVDs I already own, which are pretty typical aerobics routines. I also thought it might help improve my co-ordination and be fun to learn a few dance moves. The DVD moves at quite a pace, never gives you any chance to actually learn the moves and frequently the close-up is on the dancer's face and torso rather than his feet. The warm-up itself left my calf muscles burning and my knees feeling like they were going to implode. I'm not unfit - I walk at least 3 miles a day and am in constant rehearsal for various shows, as well as doing a couple of hours aerobics a week. I couldn't keep up with the pace of this and my knees didn't forgive me for days. Neither did I learn any dance moves. My recommendation - don't bother.
I thought that learning the dance moves was fun, the trainer and lucy were enthusiastic, although at times when I really needed to see the mans feet I got his lovely muscley chest! The exercise is definitely low impact and would be best used the day after a hard work out to keep the metabolism going. You also have to learn the routine thoroughly to get the best workout which may take a while. But over - all a very enjoyable exercise!
Im not motivated enough to go to the gym. I hate exercise, but this DVD appealed to me because it isnt like exercising, its more dancing. It is easy to follow, with step by step instructions. You can do as much or as little as you like and it's FUN!
This is a great low to medium impact routine. Lucy and her trainer gradually introduce new steps and then build them into one big routine at the end. Don't worry about getting it wrong, Lucy gets it wrong too ! The emphesis is more on dance steps than aerobic steps. If you are wanting a higher impact workout to really burn some calories, this isn't for you but it is a fun way to be more active
