Right off this seemed very different from the Crunch videos that I have grown used to. Different set, only 2 additional participants (though they are in peak physical shape, my husband wandered by and asked "Honey, why's she wearing orange bell-bottoms?" "I DON'T KNOW."), poor sound, lighting, and film quality.

Like the other reviewers, I found the cuing and camera angles very frustrating. Lots of times I think videos are too repeptitive, but I felt that this one wasn't repetitive enough. Just when I didn't quite almost have a combination, it was time to change! Arrg! For some reason the Crunchers decided to leave off the whoop track, so I supplied my own..."You SUCK!" "I'm NOT having a good time!" " My knees hurt and my heart rate is NOT high enough!" So even though I've only done this once, I think that was enough. This one will go back on the exchange and I will go back to Master Class Aerobics with Michael Perron (now *there's* something to whoop about!)
