16-Minute Bollywood Cardio Workout

No. I threw it halfway through - not because it was too hard, not at all, but because it got to annoying. I've used dance videos before and there are really good ones that are fun and clever and actually help you to get stuff right (watch Island Girl Workouts for comparison). This doesn't. It's little things adding up:

The very first step is thrown at you without a word of explanation, and with the video not even showing the feet so you can see it.

"If it's too much hopping you know what to do! Just take care of yourself!" - what?!? That is a bland, meaningless, one-size-fits-all sentence that doesn't give me a clue as to what I should do right here, now, while trying to follow an exercise video with hops which scare my knees!

Around 3:50, a new arm movement is thrown in at full speed - that's surely great if you already now what you're supposed to do. When you're trying to pick it up, it's frustrating.

Basically: A very fit, perky women doing what's she's very good at with sequins and flouncy shirts thrown it to make it exotic.

The exercise videos made by Sparkpeople are way better.

Liked it. A little hard to follow at first and definitely not ready for the full hops yet!

This was a really fun workout. Amazing how much it could make you sweat after just 16 minutes. They did a new class similar this where I workout at work and I looked like an expert!
