I did Dance Cardio yesterday. I have no rhythm, hips, boobs, or booty so nothing moves when I attempt to shake or shimmy but some of the moves were athletic and I could easily do those. There are 6 short combos, after learning each one, you TIFT, doing all six just once. It didn't feel monotonous to me, and that's probably because my brain was working trying to remember everything. She doesn't always cue but that's probably a good thing because once you learn, you really don't need to hear the cues over and over. I didn't love it or hate it, but I'm going to do this again tomorrow to see if that changes.

Today I did Dance Strength. whew! That got my heart rate up and didn't leave me with any energy to do even a Leslie after. I'll do this again sometimes this week to see if it tires me out again. The workout alternates between cardio (all the same exercises) and strength, then an ab segment.
After warm up, you do cardio moves which consists of: high knees, skaters, slow scissors, then quick, squat thrusts, slow cross jacks, then quick, and some other dancey moves I don't remember.

strength: moves are either 30 seconds per side, or one minute total
curtsy lunge -then add lateral raises (I used 10)
reverse lunge with 1 arm raised (I used 10)- then add knee raise
holding weights in front at 90 degrees reverse lunge with knee up/twist (10s)
plie squat - then add punch (10s),
narrow squat - then add shoulder press (10s) (Here she says, "Your ass will thank you." I don't care, but some people might mind.)
Single leg deadlift w/biceps curl at the top (10s)

plank series:
plank jack w/pushup
in plank (or more like down dog) weights by hands, you bring a weight to the opposite foot, then do the other, then reverse, bringing the weight back to the hands
mountain climbers

abs:
straight leg weighted crunch
straight leg reverse crunch
this one I hadn't done before: knees in to crunch, placing a weight on your feet, push out legs (I was afraid the weight would fall, but it stayed in place) while stretching out the upper body, then come back in grab weight and straighten the upper body


edit: thanks to the tag, I saw that there's a thread on this from a few years ago: http://www.videofitness.com/~vfwnk/f...d.php?t=218409
I guess I skipped over because of the price, or the dance, which I didn't like at the time.

You're welcome!

I did Dance Cardio again. I guess I was more awake today, because I realized that it wasn't as complicated as I made it out to be. The first 3 combos are athletic, and once I realized that she always starts with the right leg, I no longer got confused. Combos 4-6 have hip shakes and upper body pops, but nothing too bad. Her cuing is good, too, letting you know what's coming up right before. I didn't get it the first day, but that was my fault not poor cuing.

eta: these aren't chaptered, I'm on carpet and have no problem
