"PowerMax" "PowerMax" (1996)

I received the PowerMax video yesterday and couldn't wait to get going. This is an AWESOME video. Cathe is at her best. It is similar to Step Jam. PowerMax has all new fantastic music (you will hear "We Will Rock You"). She begins with an 8 minute warm up which is very brisk, including squats, which will get your heart rate up to prepare you for what's to come. Section I is 14 minutes long - all power moves - crossovers, step leaps, pony move on the step, she just keeps on going. Section II is the most challenging and it is 17 minutes long - power lunges, jump hops, a great pendulum move on the step. All moves are power on this video - you get your breaks by doing basic steps. Section III is 13 minutes and power again. I found this a little confusing but I know when I do the tape next time, I will master it. She does straddle step with jump hops (like Step Heat's last section). She goes around the step in a pivotal manner. Her cooldown is done with a 4" step, she does mambos, walk arounds, lots of fun moves. I love this tape. I have all her tapes and she is awesome. Can't wait to see other reviews of Powermax.
