Format:DVD
Being a huge fan of Gareth Walker's 'Pump it Up' workouts, I'm bound to be a bit biased! But unfortunately, for me this DVD just isn't quite as good as the previous Gareth-led ones. It's still full of great dance moves and a fantastic soundtrack, and follows the 'usual' Pump it Up format, i.e. warm up, toning, Dancemixes 1, 2 and 3 (all about 15 minutes each), 'legs, bums and tums' then a cooldown.
There isn't much distinction between Dancemixes 1, 2 and 3 except that Dancemix 2 is a more 'Latin'-style workout, obviously inspired by Zumba. Unfortunately, I found the new presenter a bit dull and uninspiring (though this is obviously just my personal taste); although he explains all the moves well he rushes through them all at a very fast pace and there are so many that you're in danger of forgetting them by the time you get to the final run-through!
The faster pace of this presenter is a little at odds with the fact that some of the moves are quite a bit more complicated and advanced than previous 'Pump it Up' workouts (especially when I got to Dancemix 3 which had me tripping over my feet a bit!) I would think that you need to be a dancer, familiar with previous 'Pump it Up' DVDs, and/or do Zumba classes to be able to pick them up properly as you go - I wouldn't recommend this DVD to a complete beginner or someone who just wants to get stuck in straight away. None of the routines use traditional 'aerobics'; the emphasis is heavily on club/dance moves, so if you want to learn some moves for a night out this will be your thing! And it's a good 'sweaty' workout too, as long as you're able to keep up.
The 10-odd minute 'tone' and 'legs, bums and tums' follow the usual 'Pump it Up' format and can be adapted for beginners.
For me, this loses a star for its lack of the 'fun and flamboyance' factor - I just didn't smile as much doing this DVD as I have with some of the others! But it is still a great option if you're a fan of dance-based workout DVDs and want to be a bit challenged.

Format:DVD
I bought this DVD two weeks ago as I owned another Ministry of Sound workout DVD by Deanne Berry and thought I would like a change.
At first, I was really put off by the DVD as the instructor has a different teaching style to Deanne, but I have done the DVD (or parts of it) every other day for two weeks and I am now completely confident with it and really enjoy it!
I always do this DVD with my Polar heart rate monitor on, and I can get my heart rate pretty high so I would definitely say that it give you a good cardio workout. Some of the sections also are really good for toning muscles, as I am often sore the next day. Doing the whole workout, end to end I can burn around 800 calories!
The DVD is split into 7 different sections - about an 1hr 40mins if you do the whole thing. The first section and last section are about 10mins long, and the five middle sections are about 20mins long.
1. Warm Up - this is where you learn an easy routine that warms up all your muscles and joints in your body. This section is not optional and you must do it every time you use the DVD, which is not such a problem as it doesn't get boring.
2. Tone It - a very good toning section focusing on legs, arms and abs. There are lots of squats here... Be warned!
3. Dancemix 1 - this is the simplest dance section I think. Like all the dance sections, it teaches you three mini routines and then you put them all together in the end to make one big routine.
4. Dancemix 2 - this is my favourite dance section. It revolves around latin influenced dance moves and you can tell it has had influences from Zumba. You can really really feel your abs and bum working in this section.
5. Dancemix 3 - this is the hardest section by far. It took me several attempts to get this section right as the moves are quite advanced, but I quite like it now! It uses current dance moves that you might recognize from music videos which makes you feel like a super awesome dancer when you get it right!
6. Legs, Bums and Tums - this section is also pretty painful. It's quite similar to the tone it section, but a lot less energetic. I didn't know there were so many different types of crunches.
7. Cool Down - this section is brilliant for preventing injury. No joke. I have a few workout DVDs and this cool down is better than any of the ones on my other DVDs. The instructor goes though lots and lots of stretches that cover all of the muscles worked during the DVD. I cannot rave about this section enough!
Overall I would really really recommend this DVD. It is working wonders for my health and weightloss plan, but it does take quite a few attempts to get it right so have patience with it!

I found the music on the exercise dvd better than the professional dancers who were slighlt boring and not really motivating, turning up the music really helped me get into the dances which are also really good. Overall I really enjoyed doing this dvd.

Totally amazing. Really makes you want to move and the level of difficulties makes it easy to choose the right session for you.

rubbish don't bother
This is awful, the presenter is way too fast, you don't get a chance to work out one move when he's moved on to the next. Its very difficult and he is not inspiring at all. Read more
