It was not good

20 Mar 2007 - Lydia of Texas, USA writes:

My sister bought this ab workout kit and I tried to get into it but I couldn't. His work out is actually very similar to many of the moves from Turbo Jam which is also promoted by Beach Body. But there is a big difference between the two. Shaun - T's moves are all over the place and he's annoying. If you can workout with your television on mute, then get the tapes. Otherwise, don't waste your money.

Motivating

19 Mar 2007 - Shae of South Carolina, USA writes:

Shaun T. has a very motivating personality and that is a plus for this video. I am the type of person who i seasily bored with programs until I came across HHA. If you are a beginner to exercising and need something to keep your attention and rather have fun than feel like excercise, I would suggest this program. I find that time flies by and I am left wanting more. No I must admit that I do use other programs for the muscle toning benefits, but in terms of recommended cardio 5 times per week I do use the HHA program.

Wanted to Love it, but NOT GOOD!

18 Mar 2007 - Brigett of New York, USA writes:

I would consider myself an intermediate/advanted exerciser and these workouts will not get your heart rate up. I always work out with a heart rate monitor, first I did was the cardio from the original HHA. In 20 minutes I burned 100 calories. Then I thought maybe I just need to try the Maximum Results. I was trying my hardest to get my heart rate up. I was jumping as high as I could, taking huge steps when I was grapevining, etc. My heart rate stayed consistently in the high 70's to low 80's. With all of my excessive jumping I only burned a total or 348 calories in 45 minutes. I think this program would be good if you are a beginner. But if you seriously trying to tone up and loose weight I would stick with something else. After doing only 2 of the workouts I've officially retired this out of my collection. Also, it's mainly a lot of grapevining.

My heart rate barely broke into cardio range

16 Mar 2007 - Sue of Massachusetts, USA writes:

I'm almost 42, mother of three, and have always exercised. Lately, because of work stress, I've gained 12 pounds in two years and it's making me insane. In addition to following the Ultra Metabolism diet (basically low GI and raw foods) I decided i needed a new exercise routine, aside from my usual treadmill. While I wasn't able to do all the moves these guys did, I did most, but barely broke a sweat! At the end of the workout I was around 134 and peaked at 142 - but that's barely a good cardio rate for me. Most of the video (20 min) I was in the 120s. I'm going to try again - I watched the basics section and mastered the basic bounce moves, so maybe that will intensify my workout. But, if it doesn't, this is going to get shipped back. Certainly not worth the $75 it ended up being after shipping!

LOVE this workout!!!

15 Mar 2007 - Jeri of Wisconsin, USA writes:

I LOVE Hip-Hop Abs!!! Yes, it can be a little tough on the back, and I'm having twinges in my knees, BUT I also feel it BIG TIME in my abs. AND the music & energy of Shaun T are so great, I positively LOVE working out. If I can just stay on my diet, I believe this will make a real difference.

It's Okay...

9 Mar 2007 - Janie of California, USA writes:

I've been doing this for about 3 weeks now every single day. It is quite fun I must say. I haven't noticed any real differences so far. My mom says I should give it about 6 weeks before seeing any results. I have lost an inch in each arm and 2 inches in my chest. Nothing in my waist, hips or thights (yet). I will post another review later. Anyway, the plus to these videos is the time goes by fairly quickly so it doesn't seem like a chore to "get moving".

Love hip hop abs

6 Mar 2007 - Angela of North Carolina, USA writes:

I love hip hop abs. I purchased the Dvd's two weeks ago and they are great. My daughter is ten and overweight. My daughter comes home from school everyday upset because the kids are half her size and constantly tease her. My daughter loves to dance and actually looks forward to working out with Shaun T. She has dropped some inches and the dvd's have enhanced her self esteem. I know most people are looking for research about the product. I was in your shoes. This tape really motivates you to get up at 5:00am. PS. Maybe you can do a kids tape my daughter would love to participate. Thanks Shaun T.

Fun and Effective

2 Mar 2007 - Cherry of California, USA writes:

I've been using HHA for 3 weeks and I'm impressed. The pluses: 1) The workouts are not over an hour. Each workout is 20-40...although some days, you have to do two. 2) I really feel like my abs are tightened in a completely different way. 3) It doesn't feel like torture like hour-long workouts and not-so-fun workouts. 4) Shaun T is adorable. 5) I'm a dancer, but I don't like dance DVD workouts because I feel silly dancing by myself...but this workout is allright because the moves are "street", they have a purpose and it doesn't feel goofy doing them. The minus: 1) my upperback is tight because of the standing contractions. So, I need to do extra stretching for my upper back and shoulder muscles that are not included in the cool down. Of course, that could be me over doing the shoulders and not the workout program itself.

Great Product So Far!!

28 Feb 2007 - Stephanie of Texas, USA writes:

I just received this product, and it is a ton of fun if you like to dance. I love that the time flies by and it seems like you are not really working out, just at a party with Shaun T. The moves are really easy to learn also. I felt more soreness in my back, then in abs though. I have only used it for 3 good days, so it remains to be seen as for my results. I have not lost any pounds, but I can tell I have lost inches all over my body. This is a good workout, but not a real intense one. Give it a try it might work for you. Will keep you updated!

Most fun I've had in a workout!

27 Feb 2007 - Suzi of Maryland, USA writes:

This is fun, really fun and it's something a real klutz like me can do. Shawn T. is great to look at, you don't want the workout to end! I've felt the most after using the Body Sculpt DVD and for the first time I look forward to doing a cardio tape. Also have Turbo Jam but have not been able to pull away from this yet to try. This guy keeps you going - just cause you wanna make him happy!

So far okay...

27 Feb 2007 - Janie of California, USA writes:

I've been doing the Hip Hop Abs for a week now. I have not seen any difference in my inches or weight but it has only been a week. So maybe by the end of the 4 weeks I will have something different to say. The plus about these videos is that they are not boring. And the 30 min cardio goes by very quickly. The program has you rotate through the videos and so far I've only done the cardio and the ab sculpt. I'm looking forward to the others soon. I'll check back in in a few more weeks. By the way, I'm a 35yo woman, 5'5", 193lbs. Just to give you an idea of where I am now. Have fun!

LOVE HHA

25 Feb 2007 - Michelle of Pennsylvania, USA writes:

I received HHA a few days ago and I love it! I feel like I finally found a product that I enjoy doing and works! I hate to exercise, but I know I have to do it! The past few days, I used HHA and actually looked forward to doing it! Shawn T teaches you how to do all the moves and it's easy and fun to follow! I only used the tapes for 3 days so I haven't seen results, but during the exercises, I can feel my abs getting quite a workout! Looking forward to showing off my six-pack!

It does work

20 Feb 2007 - Carmelle of Minnesota, USA writes:

I've worked with HHA for 4 weeks now and it does work. I have quite a bit of weight to lose so for me the results are not as quick as the infomercial but I have seen results. It took 1 week before I was able to finish the 20 min. fat burning cardio workout, but I can now finsh all the DVDs in the program. Love the music and the movements. This is not a boring workout. Because of the dance moves it makes someone my age and weight think that I'm really getting down. Now will I do this in public is a totally different story. BUT in my living room I'm all that AND a bag of chips!

FUN

13 Feb 2007 - Barbara of California, USA writes:

I got my HHA today and did the workout. HHA, is a lot of fun, and it will really work your abs for sure and much to my suprise you can work up a sweat. I'm an advance exceriser, It's not an advance workout IMO, but it's a fun workout break for me, and I will do it on my "light" days or when I want to do 2 workouts in one day. The music is okay, but IMO not as good as turbo jam. but If you love to dance you'll Loveeee HHA .
