CIA 2K06: Cardio Step Attack plus Body Strength

Donna Read
Year Released: 2000

Categories: Step Aerobics , Total Body Workouts


I love Donna for her naturalness and the way she teaches the moves and I am not disappointed here, but there is one problem: the workout is not 44 minutes as the box says, but actually only 32. This is a big difference and CIA is constantly making this same mistake on their tapes. Donna is her usual bubbly, natural, adorable self and when the workout started out, I didn't care for the music but as it progressed, it greatly improved. The intensity is moderate and she doesn't go "from the top" very much because it's broken down into two segments. As with her other tapes, she intersperses sprints to get your heartrate up. Her "tick-tock" move is here, along with "safe" (Andre uses this in his CIA tape) and the usual straddles with some moves on the floor. I just scanned the toning and it look tough with lots of push-ups and "core" ab work (not my thing). Excellent workout but should have been longer.
