This video is fantastic! It is the best cardio workout on video I have ever done. I am an advanced exerciser and can do most videos without too much trouble, but this was TRULY challenging. Unlike "Intense Moves" there are no slow downs or rest periods- it's just one long continuous workout. I like it that you get a solid hour of cardio instead of only 30 minutes like in most other cardio videos I've done. As well as being challenging, this video is really fun- it has all my favourite high impact aerobic moves (plyo jumps, plyo heel digs, high kicks e,t.c.)and fun step choreography that's not too difficult to learn. (I got most of the moves by the second time I did it) Oh, and the music is great too- I recognized some of the dancy tunes in the floor aerobics section. Unlike some of the other reviewers, I really didn't mind the cooldown music. I agree that the low impact section is more like an extended warm- up, but I think it is designed that way so you'll be properly warmed up for the high intensity that follows. In any case, the rest of the workout more than makes up for the slow beginning! This was my first Cathy Friedrich video and I don't think it will be the last.

Instructor Comments:
Cathy is very upbeat and motivating without being annoying. She doesn't slow down the workout to explain the moves, which is great because it keeps the intensity high.
