1. Hip Hop Fitness or Hip Hop Aerobics Fitness
Hip hop is such a popular dance style that it's no wonder that it's just as popular in the fitness training videos. Fitness training means different things to different people, so know what you're looking for before you buy. The hip hop fitness training will be more like a fitness workout with some hip hop moves, music and fun. There should be instruction on working various muscle groups and sections of the body. The hip hop aerobics videos will lean more toward hip hop dancing combined with an aerobics style intensity to get the heart rate up. The hip hop dancing videos are just that -- learning and doing hip hop dancing.
2. Hip Hop Fitness Training Videos
To get the most out of your hip hop fitness training video, buy videos that may be a part of a series of videos, for example, "Hip Hop Abs" with Shaun T. The abs video is a hip hop workout with specialized attention to the abs. There are others in the hip hop series with Shaun T., such as the "Fat Burning" video, the "Best Cardio" video and the "Absolute Total Body Burn" video. These are all hip hop based with different areas of fitness.
3. Look for an Aerobic Fitness Workout
Look for hip hop fitness training videos with an aerobics based plan that has a series of videos as well. "D's Hip Hop Routine" video, with Devona Canario, is a good example of hip hop dancing combined with an aerobics fitness workout. This includes instruction on the various hip hop styles of dance, such as the Southern Style hip hop and the City Style hip hop. This is just one in the series with Devona Canario; another in her series is "Street Technique."
4. Hip Hop Dancing Fitness Videos
Don't forget the option of getting your fitness training from a video on actual straight hip hop dancing. Going through the routines and learning the actual dance movements will be an intense workout, challenging and lots of fun. For this style of video look for hip hop dance instruction videos like "Broadway Dance Center: Hip Hop Funk" video, "Blake McGrath: Dance Driven Hip Hop and More Hip Hop" or "Hip Hop Dance Workout: Street Dance with Nekea Brown."
5. Try It Before You Buy It
Ask hip hop fitness instructors if they can recommend a video for the style you want. When ordering online or even in a video store, ask about seeing a sample of the video before purchasing. If that's not possible, be sure to know the company's return policy in the event you need to return the video. If still unsure, consider just renting the video to try it out.
