Reebok Versa Training: Hi/Low Aerobics

Petra Kolber
Year Released: 1995

The reviews of this workout are less than glowing. That surprised me. I found this workout to be a fun, intermediate hi/lo routine.
Like many Reebok tapes, the set is kind of weird. In this case, there is a screen with what I imagine the designers thought were "arty" images projected on to it. The lighting is also kind of weird. When I previewed the tape I thought it would be very distracting, but it really wasn't.
The workout has a short warm up (about 5 minutes), 20 minutes of cardio and then a 5 minute cool down/stretch. It is short, so this partly accounts for the fact that time flies by when I do it. But the nice mix of dancy and athletic moves and the short combos make the time fly by too.
Petra cues decently-- I didn't have much trouble with the moves. Of course, the choreography is not all that complex-- kind of basic/moderate. The impact is mixed, with low impact options shown at all times. There is definitely more low impact than high impact.
This tape would be nice to do before Yoga or strength, or it might be a good early morning/time crunched workout tape.
If you can pick this up cheap (as I did--I paid a dollar for it), it is a nice little tape.
