Step Reebok: Circuit Challenge

I noticed that her counting is off in one spot, some moves she has you do a set of 4, sometimes a set of 5 and sometimes a set of 6. I am of the mind set that a set of 4 is the normal. So it was a little odd at first, but you get over it.

There is no time allowed to get that drink of water. So keep your bottle near by and sneak it in when you can.

I've used this tape for 2 years now. I have been bored with it from time to time, but seem to come back to it. I always work up a sweat with this tape, even 2 years later. I have introduced ankle weights and use both lifts on my step.

I'd suggest before using this video, to have some experience under your belt by going to a gym to learn the basics. 3 visits on a consistant basis would do the trick.

Overall, I'd say this is a great video because it does incorporate cardio and toning. There doesn't seem to be anything like it on the market. After the cool off segment I do my own floor exercises to finish it off. Doing this 3 days a week has helped me lose weight and maintain the weight loss for 2 years!

The video shows most of the people using an exercise band for the strength sections. I use free weights and they work fine for me. You really need a variety of sizes of weights--I use 8 and ten pound dumbells.

Gin Miller is a great instructor. She is intelligent and has a good sense of humor. She has great muscular legs! Her cuing is good and she never patronizes you.

Don't worry about the reviewers who say they weren't working hard enough. You WILL get a good workout. And if it gets too easy, raise the level of your step platform and add power moves!
