I don't have too much to add to the previous reviews. I will add my opinion though and say that I find this workout to be a lot of fun. I don't do it more than 2 or 3 times a year, however, so it always ends up feeling a little fresh to me.

I like the circuit concept. I make the workout a bit more intense, by holding a small 5# medicine ball during most of the blasts. That helps bring my heart rate up and works my legs and core a little more.

I enjoy the choreography in this one. It flows really well. Cathe isn't the best at teaching choreography, so it can be confusing for someone who isn't used to her workouts. However, if you like her style, it can be worth it to continue.

I find the music in this one to be a lot of fun. I prefer vocals, especially when I'm doing step and this has recognizable covers of songs. I do wish it was louder though.

This is one of those workouts that is sometimes hard to fit in, because of the way my legs get sore so easily, but I probably will keep it forever, because it is fun, has the right kind of choreography when I want a moderate workout and I like the music.
