Crunch: Boot Camp Training

Sue Hitzman
Year Released: 1999

Categories: Circuit Training (cardio and weights)


This is a great video, but a little short. I think that the strength moves are more along the lines of "functional fitness" as opposed to strength training. If this was your only strenght tape, I think you'd keep the muscle you have and would increase core strength, but you wouldn't gain a lot of muscle.

That said, this tape works great when you only have a half hour to work out. It is also a great combo tape. I'm one of those people who usually use more than one tape at a time, mixing and matching away. My next match is to do the cardio of cia 9903 boot camp until the push ups and then pop in this tape. I can't even come clost to doing the pushups on 9903 so I think this will be fun.

The good- there is less whooping than other Crunch tapes. Its the hardest Crunch tape I've tried. There is less silicone in this and the other new crunch tape than those in the past. Good cueing, fun workout. Its a keeper for me.

The bad- its short. The only other bad thing I have to say, is that even though there are more normal looking people on this tape, the camera seems to really stay with the one super thin, but with cute little muscles, woman who appears to be enhanced, no hips, big bust.

Instructor Comments:
The instructor cues well, gives good pointers and is encouraging. Kind of reminds me of a more feminine, more fun Lisa Gaylord from Reebok Power Blast.
