CIA 6001: Dynamix

Lynne Brick
Year Released: 1995

Categories: Step Aerobics


I have done this workout maybe ten times now, and although I
absolutely despised it at first, it's gotten a little better. The workout is separated into a warm-up, Hi/Low Floor, Step, and Total Body Conditioning. The floor aerobics are difficult for me to do simply because my apartment is not big enough. The step part is not difficult either, from a cardiovascular perspective, but it does have some tricky steps. My main problem with this video is that Lynne Brick puts all these fancy moves in the workout that don't really add to the difficulty or intensity (i.e., they don't raise the heartbeat); instead, the tricky moves just seem to be there to make you trip over your own feet. These moves are for the most part non-plyometric, but because she really doesn't do a very good job in cueing, I have some difficulty following her.

Despite these problems, I really like Lynne Brick in spite of myself. She's an extremely likeable instructor, and the music she uses is great.
