carmenelectra_stripteasebedroom_dvd.jpgCarmen Electra delivers a unique body sculpting routine designed to burn calories, work your muscles and make you feel more sensual, all without ever leaving the comfort of your bedroom. Using a blend of exotic dance and fitness techniques, Carmen aims to get you in shape while making you stronger, more flexible and sexier than ever before.

Single DVD features include:

  • Warm-Up
  • Toning and Stability
  • Workout Routine
  • Full Screen format

Critique:

Carmen Electra’s Aerobic Striptease - In the Bedroom was actually quite a pleasant surprise. Fitness videos are often geared toward audiences at a certain level, whether that be beginner, intermediate or expert, and move through the workout routine at a consistent pace until the exercise is over and it’s time to hit the showers. Carmen takes a more methodical approach, which accommodates audiences of varying skill levels and still gives the viewer a thorough workout.

The 75-minute DVD consists of three individual segments: a warm-up, a toning and stability session and the actual workout. Each segment of the DVD breaks its objective into parts, each part being a series of moves from the total routine of that particular segment.

Carmen goes though each series of moves slowly, both showing and telling the viewer what needs to be done. She follows that with a repeat of the series done on an 8-count, and follows it once more with the moves set to music. Once all the segments of the routine have been taught, she repeats the entire routine with the music.

The best part about Carmen’s methodology in this is that even a novice can learn the routine and keep pace, but the repetition still provides a effective workout for those with more exercise experience. While not as aerobically challenging as some exercise videos, the stretching and toning session combine with the aerobic portion to make you feel like you’ve had a good workout without the feeling that you’ve overdone it. For the very fit viewer, the repetition may become monotonous, although portions of the routine may still be beneficial “in the bedroom” as a sensual dance to entertain your significant other.
