"We are thrilled to partner with ExerciseTV to bring the larger than life workouts that have been making Crunch members sweat for decades to exercisers around the world," said Donna Cyrus, senior vice president of programming, Crunch. "These workouts have been a staple in the Crunch community, not just because they provide results, but because their entertaining themes and energetic instructors leave exercisers alike wanting more."

Each downloadable video comes directly from the innovative class formats developed in the gym's 22 locations across New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami, that has allowed Crunch's reputation to expand far beyond these cities. Each unique fitness experience is modified for a worldwide digital audience by ExerciseTV, which has produced thousands of fitness videos for their DVD store, website, and digital cable channel.

"Fitness audiences crave unique workout experiences to help motivate and energize them," says ExerciseTV President, Chris Mansolillo. "ExerciseTV is stepping up to show the world what everyone outside of Crunch cities has been missing, and wanting."

Three different workout genres are available to cater to various workout tastes. An Eroticise series of video fitness classes taught by Cat Chiarelli features Burlesque Beat, Sexy Stretch and Stiletto Strength. A Dance Rhythms series taught by Marc Santa Maria includes Lyrical Hip Hop, Global Grooves and Latin Rhythms. An Action Sports series led by Michelle Opperman busts out Diesel, Ass & Abs and Chisel. The videos run approximately 20 minutes and are available for purchase and download for $3.99 each at http://www.exercisetv.tv/crunch/.
