The reviews that said Masala Bhangra is not a low-impact workout were correct. This being Indian dance, there is also shoulder shrugging during all the moves, which is to be expected.<\/p>\n
Put the bouncing and shrugging together, and I cannot stress enough the importance of a good sports bra while doing the workout. The twins were Bhangra-ing around a lot is all I’m sayin’.<\/p>\n
Also, the workout needs a longer warm-up and especially cool-down, although of course you can do those on your own.<\/p>\n
The instructor does not explain any moves, and only shows how to do them once at full speed before you are expected to do them in combination. It’s very dancey, which would be good for someone more coordinated in that way. For me, it was sink or swim. I swam for about 15 minutes, then fast forwarded to the cool-down. Then I rewound just a little bit to see what was near the end, and saw all the exercisers dancing in circles around an old guy in traditional dress banging a huge drum. I might have been hallucinating, but I don’t think so.<\/p>\n
I’d do this workout again, but it’ll be a while before I’m up to doing the whole thing.<\/p>\n
Also, I need a better sports bra. Possibly made of titanium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
