I don't know any science behind it, but I kind of like focusing on the core as a warm-up. I've been known to use Pilates to warm-up for yoga, and more recently, I've occasionally used the Core Floor segment from V-Core to warm-up for a cardio or strength DVD when I don't like the included warm-up routine. To me, it just kind of feels like a warm-up focused on the core actually tends to get the blood flowing to the entire body.
The only "expert" on this I can think of is in the original Ripped, when Jari asks one of her background exercises, Terry, how often he works his abs--he replies something like 3-4x per week, but "only as a warm-up."

I did a little Googling and found this: http://www.coreperformance.com/knowl...r-warm-up.html
I have a feeling the people who developed S90 are familiar with "Core Performance".
