Marcus Irwin
One of Marcus's new workouts, it's standard vintage Marcus, with the exception that
he actually TIFTTs. You learn three combinations and at the end do them all together.
He and two women work out in the typically dark noirish Evolution-type setting,
on what looked to me like an unfinished floor of an unfinished house. I guess they
were going for some raw industrial-type look. ;)
I can't remember the breakdowns exactly, I just recall that there are a whole lot
of mambo chachachas (and a "tango" which is like a pair of mambos in different
directions. Stomps galore and a few straddles, not a whole lot of "power"
moves. But the way he combines the moves is, as always, fun. I can't really remember
anything about the music, so I guess it was your standard-issue instrumental aerobic
music with a good beat.
Instructor comments:
The same as ever--funny, wry, competent and cute. Those already in love with his
previous step workouts will find little different here. If you wanted less breakdown
of moves, however, you won't find it here. As always, he starts off with very basic
moves that he builds on (while having you perform the same basic moves for a bit
longer while he shows you the advanced version). This style keeps the workout high-intermediate
as opposed to advanced, though the run-throughs themselves are pretty sweat-inducing.
