Whip yourself into rock star shape.

Rock out with Crunch's new class.

You already whip your hair back and forth. Now, it's time to whip yourself into totally ripped shape.

Get a rock star bod with Crunch's new POUND - Rockout. Workout. Created by drummers and former bandmates Kirsten Potenza and Cristina Peerenboom, this high-energy mix of cardio intervals, Pilates and drumming can burn up to 800 calories during a 45-minute class. (Watch a video demo here.)

The routine uses neon-colored "Ripstix," aka weighted drumsticks that work the upper body, back, core and lower body, so you can get toned while playing along to a great soundtrack. We had a blast drumming on our exercise mats and following the beat. The next day, our obliques and legs were achy in a great way.

Watch the exclusive workout here. (Use a set of regular drumsticks or wooden spoons if you can't find Ripstix.)

POUND launches at Crunch gyms this week. Try it at a location near you.  

It's the jam.
