As you may already know, I have finished P90 (Power 90) and chose to start Hip Hop Abs as my next workout program. I am not at all disappointed. It is surprisingly really fun! I am not a good dancer. The equivalent of my dance moves is limited to the side-to-side move with my elbows at a 90 degree angle. Sort of like the scene in the movie “Hitch” where Will Smith is teaching Kevin James how to dance.
Yet, I am having a ball when I workout because Shaun T. (the instructor) is so hyped and has a great sense of humor, that it makes all of the dance/exercise movements fun. This is the first program I’ve used where the time just flies by. A 30-minute workout feels like 10 minutes because you’re dancing.
I will probably do this work out for a month and then try out Turbo Jam. I did plan on mixing up the two but what I have found myself doing is alternating between Hip Hop Abs and the Power 90 sculpt 3-4 so that I can still get in some weight training and body weight exercises.
I’m also thinking about planning out a good calisthenics routine for myself after I conducted an interview with HIT of Calisthenics Kingz on my other fitness blog. He makes calisthenics sound like a lot of fun and I think it would be a perfect addition to do between workouts with any of the Beachbody programs.
Have you started any new programs? If so, what are they and how do you like them?
Yours in Health,
