I've only done the HiLo section so far, so I'm only able to review that. I love it!! It's about 40 cardio minutes (minus warmup/cooldown). I'm not a kickboxing fan at all, but I really enjoy the short kickbox combos in this tape. I'm lukewarm about HiLo in general, but I really enjoyed this HiLo routine- not a lot of taking-it-from-the-top, but enough to enjoy the routine. The choreography is complex, but not TOO complex--I got all of it (except the very last triple-step combo) on my first try without previewing! That NEVER happens. I like complex choreo, BUT it usually takes me forever to catch on. I'm not crazy for the music, there are no vocals and it's the typical Dynamix fare--I recognized some of it from other CIAs. This was my first experience with Franny and I really liked her: she's excellent at cueing (if I got it on the first try...), she has an attainably fit figure and is cute and funny. I think she's a cross between Jennifer Mills Palmer (my personal fave!) and Cathe. She's really great.
