Review: Cheryl Burkes' Disco Abs
Cheryl Burke, 2010 ***** (5 of 5 stars)
Cheryl Burkes' Disco Abs is a 3 dvd set (with 5 workouts) in one dvd case. For a total of 90 exercise minutes. Cheryl works out in a nice open set with a disco ball on a TV screen & a few platforms that 2 of the 4 backgrounders exercise on. Each dvd is chaptered by song and/or by workout (2 of the discs have 2 w/o's each). There is also a music volume option- louder or softer. You can still hear Cheryl's cuing in the "music louder" option but it is not as prominent as the music.
The music in these workouts is fantastic and really makes you want to move! There is also a countdown timer in the corner of the screen. Each song has its own routine and at the end of the workout you string the routines together for a longer disco routine. Cheryl does a great job of adding in core work to standing cardio moves and really gets in the disco feel to the cardio moves by adding in fun disco arms and disco hips. The workouts are: Thats the Way You Like It, I Will Survive Cardio, Boogie Oogie Buns & Thighs, The Beginner Hustle, and Disco Abs.
Exercises include: egg beater arms, kick ball change, hussle, grapevine & disco point, hip shifts, shimmy, hip shakes, hip swings, triple step up w/ egg beater arms & hip shift back, knee hop-disco point, skater w/ disco arms, brush your hair, wiper arms, standing crunches w/ chicken arms, spine rolls, toe tap- point, chasse, hip lifts, and other fun disco inspired standing core work.
Buns & Thigh Exercises include: squats, lunges, dips, & pliets w/ disco arms (egg beater, shimmy, & point), lunge- kick w/ a twist & point, hip shakes and figure 8's, and includes plenty of tempo changes and fast paced moves to get the heart pumping.
I rate this a lower intermediate workout in terms of choreo and cardio intensity. These workouts are all SO much fun! I absolutely loved doing all of these and def felt it in my core-from every angle. This core work is so much more fun & more effective IMO than doing a million crunches and you burn more calories! So many time options make these workouts perfect to add on to other workouts, string together, or as stand alone workouts. I liked Cheyl- good energy but not overly excitable, and good cuing. I received this dvd to review.
