It looks like the days of exercising with Charlene in the great outdoors are gone. This hour-long step workout is shot indoors in a plain room as her other recent videos have been. I really miss the outdoor scenery, but this is a great workout anyway. Charlene, at age 54, still offers the high intensity she always has, and her step choreography, while still rather basic, is a lot more varied and interesting than in her early step videos. This is not one I would do every day or every week, because it is a little repetitive. But it’s perfect, and fun, on days when you want high intensity without having to think too much. Grade A.
