Shaun T’s Let’s Get Up – Review
Fun dance moves, resistance training plus the energy and charisma of ShaunT …. These are just a few reasons to try the latest dance workout program called Let’s Get Up!
In this video, I give you an overview of this awesome program so you can decide for yourself if THIS is for you!
I am in the process of adding beachbody sample workouts to my YouTube channel so sign up for my newsletter to get notified of new blog and video posts!
Quick fact… Believe it or not this is ShaunT’s 13th Beachbody program, the first one being Hip Hop Abs from 2003!
What’s Included?
Let’s Get Up is a 30 Day Calendar includes the
- Sample Workout
- Prep Week workout
- 16 dance workouts
- 4 resistance workouts (which are done twice within in the 30 days)
In addition to the main program there is the rootop bonus workout and 4 “Let’s Add On” resistance workouts.
I counted 26 total workouts including bonus videos.
The workouts are 30-35 minutes long. This is my PERSONALLY preferred length OF WORKOUTS. On days that you can workout longer, you can double up on programs OR add YOU CAN ADD ONE of the additional shorter workouts routines from the program. ERSONALLY, I like to being active outside so Let’s Get Up is a great complement to the other things I do.
Subscribers of Nutrition+ get 4 more “Live it Up” dance routines.

Cize vs Let’s Get Up
One of my favorite features of Let’s Get Up is “The Cameo” – this cute little video of Carly appears on the right lower corner just before the next move is about to begin, cueing you on the next set of moves!
If you, UNLIKE me, don’t need or want The Cameo , you can either ignore her OR you can choose the “No-Cameo” workouts
Cize
Some of you may remember that Shaun T also has another popular Dance workout called Cize which came out 6 years ago in 2015.
Cize has more of the feel of a dance class where you build on the choreography throughout the session. By the end YOU are able to complete a 2-3 minute dance!
Let’s Get Up
Let’s get up is more of a Challenging, toning and firming workout with FUN dance moves. You will learn a shorter set of choreography BUT WILL ALSO enjoy “Moments of Insanity” which lasts 4 minutes WITHIN EACH workout.
Another thing that differentiates “Let’s Get Up” from Cize is that it has 8 days of resistance training as part of the 4 week program.
AGAIN … . Don’t worry about the choreography! We have The Cameo to help us out!
Dance Workouts – Structure
The Dance workouts have this basic structure
- 3 minutes of Warmup
- During this warm up I find myself smiling The whole time. Personally I prefer dynamic warmups to static ones. I wish I could do the Let’s Get Up warm up for my fitness programs!
- 2 minutes of Tone and Tighten
- 15 minutes of Choreo Reps
- Learn a 2 sets of 4 (8 count) moves. This part of the workout is about having fun, working those muscles and repeating the moves several times. All the while enjoying as you work those muscles and burn those calories.
- Side note – I LOVE how Shaun T reminds us which muscle groups we are working as we dance….
- 4 minutes of Moment of Insanity
- 4 minute section of the “Let’s Get Up” Workout routines is obviously named after Shaun T’s well known “Insanity Workouts”. Don’t worry! These moments aren’t as difficult as the Insanity program … but they do let you get the heart rate up. If you want to make the most of these four minutes – go ALL IN!
- Choreo Stacked
- After that Insanity moment we now get a chance to recover slightly and to put the choreography together! All 8 moves, no repetition – we get to do the full routine we learned in the first half of the workout.
- Again – we have “Carly Cameo” to help us out – don’t worry if you don’t remember the next move!
Resistance Workouts – Structure
The structure is basically the same replace “Choreo Reps” with “Reps” and “Choreo Stacked” with “Stacked”
- Reps
- Where we do 8 sets of strength moves – with lots of repetition.
- PRO TIP: When choosing weights, consider that you not putting these weights down. SO I recommend choosing light to medium dumbbells! Don’t let your EGO tempt you to pick weights that are too heavy!
- I love that in Let’s Get Up you are ALWAYS moving. That includes moving through the entire resistance workout.
- Where we do 8 sets of strength moves – with lots of repetition.
- OK, I kind of lied here. you WILL put down the weights for the Moment of Insanity!
- Stacked
- Where you do all those 2 sets of 4 strength moves you did earlier this time you’re putting all 8 moves together without the repetition.
- Don’t worry, this is not like the choreographed dance routine, Shaun T talks you through all the moves!
