Crunch: Fat Blaster

Jennifer Mills Palmer
Year Released: 1995

Categories: Floor Aerobics/Hi-Lo/Dance


This is a decent, although short, high/low floor workout. The aerobics part is about 20 minutes, and there are a warmup and cooldown as well, bringing the total to about 30 minutes. The aerobic section is broken into 3 different routines. The first two (especially the second)are repeated way too many times. She needs to either add more choreography to each of the routines, so you don't feel like you're doing the same thing over and over, or else shorten these two and add a fourth. The choreography is intermediate level. You might have trouble following her the first couple of times, because she doesn't waste time explaining the moves in any detail. That's good, because if she did, it would take up the whole 20 minutes. Intensity is also at an intermediate level. I was afraid that because it was only 20 minutes, it wouldn't be very intense, but that wasn't the case.

Overall, I give this a B. If not for the first two routines being repeated so much, it would get an A or A-.

Instructor Comments:
Jennifer Mills is a good instructor. Her voice, however, gets on my nerves for about the first 15 minutes or so. After that, I'm able to tune it out.
