Hip Hop Abs is the brainchild of a fitness guru that goes by the name of Shaun T. Though Shaun is certainly cut, we’re all familiar with the fact that just because a fitness guru has gotten slim it doesn’t mean his method will work for everyone. Shaun T does claim to have lost 50 pounds on a similar workout plan, though we thought we’d give you a closer look to see if it’s right for you.
What is the Hip Hop Abs Program?
The Hip Hop Abs workout program consists primarily of 4 video workout routines including:
- Secrets to Flat Abs – 13 minutes focusing on all areas of the abdominals.
- Fat Burning Cardio – 30 minutes of “dancing” to hip hop
- Ab Sculpt – 25 minutes focusing again on abs
- Total Body Burn – 45 minutes of cardio and isotonic routines
This program is fairly complete at least in the sense that it claims to work all parts of your body to lose fat and specifically on toning your abs, but as you’ll notice it is pretty brief. The package also includes:
- Nutrition guide
- 30-day workout calendar
- Measurement card and measuring tape
- A few “sampler” workout videos and programs
What kind of results are seen with Hip Hop Abs?
The vast majority of reviews only express enthusiasm about Shaun T and excitement about starting the program, rather than actual results seen. From the company producing this program, absolutely none of their prized “before/after” photos refer the success to Hip Hop Abs.
How much does Hip Hop Abs Cost?
The supposely “$400 value”program is offered in 3 payments of $20 plus almost $13 shipping. This is ridiculously over-priced for a DVD fitness program and the shipping is definitely gauging.
Is Hip Hop Abs worth purchasing?
Given the fact that the program is so short, it is highly unlikely that you’ll want to stick with a program like this for 30-days. It is definitely possible that on a similar program you could see better abs with 30 days of consistent work-outs, but despite the gimmick of hip hop dance moves and the smiley, out-going Shaun T, there isn’t a lot to keep you motivated and focused here. All style considerations aside (and we definitely don’t recommend the style of the program), we don’t find this program to be worth nearly the amount they charge.
