If you're into Hollyoaks when these 3 were in it (I don't watch it so have no idea if they are still in it!) then you’ll enjoy the interviews and behind the scenes for a few minutes - but that part isn't going to get you on your way to getting fit. The girls - Abi, Sarah and Jodi - enlist trainer Tristan Temple for some simple lifestyle tips and to design a dance workout. Tristan seems an amiable guy but he does take a back seat and gets cut out of a lot of shots. It's really all about the girls and although there is flesh on show, it's not too over the top (well, almost). The girls do pretty well considering they look completely out of their comfort zone and only Jodi seems to half enjoy it. But to give them credit they do push through the pain and try not to show it. I certainly can't call this a dance workout as there is really no dancing going on - unless you refer to the 5 minute pop video of the girls prancing about. It is an extremely simple routine with some floor work. No previous experience of anything is required - it's that simple - so excellent for beginners and those with not much co-ordination. Simple but could get tough for a beginner so take out the jumps and only do what you can. If you are a regular exerciser you can add in more intensity by putting more effort into the jumps - it certainly works and you can build up a bit of a sweat. It's not a long workout (14 mins cardio & 9 mins floor work) therefore can suit a variety of people especially those with limited time but the warm up is a bit too long for my liking - it's not as if you're gonna be doing that much exercise. However you could use it as a relaxation session after a hard day - same with the too long Cool Down. The main workout is in a nightclub setting and there isn't a lot of atmosphere to be honest, minimal instructions (although so simple it is not a problem), the girls don't really say anything and are not miked-up anyway but the music is good enough to get you through. What you get: Warm Up = 13 min 40 Breathing, gentle jogging, arm reach, body rolls, side stretch, shoulder roll, rib cage shift, hip rotation, leg stretch Dance Workout= 23 min 10 Walking, marching, back & side lunge, punching, side steps, knee lifts, hamstring curl, jogging, high knees, pendulum leg swing, jumps, body twists, plie squats. On the floor: pelvic raises and sit ups Cool Down = 13 min Back stretch, cat stretch, thigh, calf, hamstring and shoulder stretches MrsGoldsmith's Rating: Fun: 5/10 Not that inspiring Fitness: 5/10 Not bad for beginners but too short Value: 5/10 Useful for some follow me @MrsGoldsmith

Try it if you don't mind seeing pretty girls doing boring stuff :)

Hollyoaks Dance Workout - Oh dear do not waste your money on this exercise DVD if you want to get fit.

The interview at the start was not particularly inspiring or interesting - there were not many beauty, fitness or healthy eating tips to be gained! Bit of a waste of time.

The main workout was boring and uninspired & the accompanying soundtrack was dull. So much for the promised funky dance moves! The freestyle section at the end was cringeworthy - something for your teenage brother to perv over.

If you want a great dance DVD then get Pump It Up! - it is loads better.

Hollyoaks Dance Workout - I saw this DVD advertised in Sugar, and thought it would be good to try it out. When I arrived at the shops I couldn't belive the price! £20, but I forked out the money and bought it. When I first tried it, it was very upbeat and tired me out, and I began doing the DVD everyday. After about 5-6 weeks of the video I lost a stone and felt better from doing it. The free 30 minute stretch DVD is a great bonus if you work full-time and have kids/are busy so you can reduce the time you spend on a workout. After reading reviews on the web I thought that the DVD was going to be ineffective, but I think combined with the right attitude it's a bit pricey but you'll feel fab!

Hollyoaks Dance Workout - Most of the main workout was jogging, and then it was more like a punishment. The girls said they wanted something that didn't feel like exercise, but when I'd finished I felt like I'd just spent 2 weeks at the gym.

The Hollyoaks Dance Workout is very good.
