This workout was a real treat. Usually CIAs take me a long time to learn and I often only do half a workout because I get weary of "taking it from the top" so many times. Well, I got 95 percent of the moves on the first run-through, no previews, no rewinds and I never got bored!

Instead of taking from the top, there are two distinct combo sections. Within the combos, he's constantly inserting new moves in the middle, rather than the end, so the sequence always seems fresh and fun.

I am an advanced exerciser who likes high intensity and moderate choreography. Cathe Friedrich's cooldowns are about as dancy as I ever get. CIA 9003 has lots of pivots, spins, scoops, ski side to side, half jacks, grapevines, lunges, knee-ups, scissors, all put together so you are moving non-stop. Greg also throws in some high-intensity drills here and there: tuck jumps, plyo jacks, etc. The tape went from an A- to an A+ when he started throwing in heel-jacks. Such a simple move, but nobody does them anymore and they are so much FUN!

I'm looking forward to doing this tape again.

Instructor Comments:
Greg has a very natural and easy approach to the camera. He cued very well in this tape and was very easy for me to follow. His style is more athletic than dancy.
