- Fantastic work out
I own all the dvd's in the 'Pump It Up' collection. And i have found this to be the best dvd by far. The others cannot compare, mainly because this was the first dvd, and a hard act to follow!
The different sections blend together very well, and I can definately feel like I've had a proper work out after completing this dvd.
The music is fantasitc and really motivating, the location of the work out is the same as the 'Call on me - Eric Prydz video', the instructor has a firm yet motivating voice.
I have used this dvd many times now, and i still find the dvd fun to work out to.

i tried this once ages ago and shelved it cos thought it was too silly and just released for the bimbos in it..but have come back to it and love it! the moves need practice but that's good to prevent boredom setting in, the tunes are great for a workout dvd and they do help you go for it, and i really like the instrutor-great rhythm,timing and encouragement and she looks amazing, makes me put down the chocolate.. for a while anyway. I'm a regular aerobics fan and find that this works well for an at home work-out, you don't need much room but you still dance well and work hard - i think once you get the hang of the moves you can let go and work harder - it's up to you to put more or less energy in. ignore the pornstar faces on the girls when doing the pelvic thrusts and you realise your butt is getting really toned!! love it.

- Great workout
I bought this dvd after buying the most recent, its much harder and sweated like I never have b4!!
This is a great workout dvd really gets you goin and the music is great makes you want to workout hard
The moves are quite complicaated but after a while I got them and really enjoy dancing around the living room:)
Rating: - GREAT soundtrack, fantastic workout!
This DVD is excellent. I agree with some of the comments that it may not be suitable for absolute beginners, as it is quite complicated and very high impact in places. I am not the most coordinated of people, but am fit, so I find this workout enough of a challenge and am gradually getting the dance steps. My advice is don't worry too much to start with and just have fun - eventually you will pick up the moves. Of course it is highly unlikely many people will ever move like the highly trained professional dancers in the dvd, but it is fun to try!
My only criticism is I would have liked some more arm exercises, but otherwise it works every muscle group. I found that the dance/high energy sections worked muscles I didn't know I had. It was so much more fun moving to the great soundtrack rather than just doing reps of endless lunges or squats like on other exercise dvds.The music really helps to keep you going. The dance section is really fun, the high energy is very high impact (they don't have a low impact option), the toning section is good (but could have done more on the abs) and I love the chill section. It really stretches you out and relaxes you.
Although the lycra and the perfect dancers are a little off-putting from a jealousy point of view, there is something strangely motivating about watching them - I thnk it makes me try even harder!
I also have the 'pump it, burn it, lose it' dvd, and I find both are great. I can't really compare as they are different. I would say definitely buy this if you are quite fit or looking for something to challenge yourself. It's really fun!

- Ouch.
Oh.My. God. Do not buy unless you have legs of steel and can move your bottom in forward, back, side to side movements with ease (and a good deal of co-ordination). Very high intensity, very hard to copy and the women are far too good looking - i felt like a heavy sack of spuds compared to them.
If you are quite fit and co-ordinated and maybe have dance experience then it could be good and i can see how it would be quite good to lose some calories too (cos you do work!) but it's all too quick.
However, the songs on here are fab - best music ever on a keep fit dvd.
