If you like the energy high, with plenty of visual and auditory stimulation, you'll enjoy Grind: Dance Club Aerobics. The scene is a trendy dance club. Host Eric Neis does the workout alongside able and motivating instructor Akiba Tripp. They are followed by an assortment of hot bods--bare-chested males and bare-midriffed females, all young, buffed, sweaty, and enthusiastically loud, who take turns instructing moves. The hip-hop choreography is intense, but the instructors make it more accessible by showing each move at half-time, then bringing it up to tempo, then joining it onto the other moves until you have a long pattern. Then the pattern is repeated several times, with visual interest added by having the instructors in different formations: just the guys, just the women, one woman and a bunch of guys, and so on. You, of course, get to participate every time. The aerobic workout ends with a "funky freestyle," where the instructors show off their own moves, one by one, while you do whatever you want and watch. Then you cool down and stretch, followed by floor exercises for the lower body. This 50-minute video is a lot of fun, especially if you're young and coordinated, with energy to burn. --Joan Price

At first, the only workout I was getting was in my thumb from having to rewind so much. I consider myself pretty coordinated, but it was tricky following most of the moves at first. The camera jumps & rotates around a lot--fine if it were just an MTV music video, but distracting when you're trying to learn from the dancers (who also never quite explain which direction they're moving or which foot/arm to use--and they're never shot from behind). I figured it out after about a week and then it got to be kind of fun. All that talk & attitude eventually gets annoying, but Eric *is* a cutie and all the rest are inspiring to see too.

This video was extremely difficult to follow and dragged on and on. The time it takes to teach the difficult dance steps takes too long. I didn't even work up a sweat.

I really loved the video. Yes you have to rewind It sometimes because the moves are a little tough but that means you do them again and add time to a helpful workout. It is a dance routine but it also keeps you in great shape. By working muscles in an area, It doesn't mean that you loose the fat there. Loosing fat begins in one place naturally and then moves on. The moves, and grooves were origional with some old favorite peices and It really makes you want to move.

I did this video for the first time last night and it was great. It's a great work-out and lots of fun. I'm not a very good dancer, but I got most of the moves. If you can't do it just like the instructor, add your own easier moves until you get more used to it. They break it down really well, plus you have a rewind button!!!
