8 Minute (Insert Body Part Here): So 1994, So Good

8 Minute (Insert Body Part Here): So 1994, So Good



There are approximately 428,392 fitness DVDs on the market today, and I often wonder if any of them live up to their somewhat lofty promises. I had a short-lived stint with Hip Hop Abs, but abruptly quit when I realized I had to have the dancing capacity of  Janet Jackson ("Miss Jackson if you're nasty") to actually get anything out of it. I've also wondered about the Yoga Booty Ballet DVD, but making such a purchase would go against my unwritten vow to never ever buy anything with the word "booty" in the title. One of the great classics of the cheesy workout genre is the 8 Minute* series. Lucky for us, most workouts in the series can be found on YouTube. I tested the Abs, Buns and Legs editions earlier today and concluded the following: If you can get past the super enthusiastic (and super spandex-y) host, these workouts actually work. Each workout is segmented into a series of simple, easy-to-do movements -- and they all go by pretty fast. The best part for me was that I actually felt them working the specific muscle groups. Try it out! I've provided the YouTube links below:
*The 8 Minute series is a product of United American Video.
