High Energy for Beginners to Advanced!, March 2, 2002
This review is from: Buns of Steel 7: Step Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This video includes a 5 minute warm-up, 30 minute step divided into two combinations, and about a 5 minute cool down. Although the step workout is only 30 minutes, it is one of the most energetic I use! On one level, this video is a good beginners tape. Tamilee Webb does an excellent explaining the moves and even moves to the front of her step so that she steps on the same foot as the viewer during the routines (some beginners may have difficulty understanding how to "mirror" the steppers on the screen). The workout is also challenging for the beginner. It offers a lot of arm movements and optional moves such as pivot turns and lunges. It is also a super workout for the advanced because almost every move can easily turn into a power step move by adding propulsion. For example, one move has the steppers stepping over the top three times on one end of the step, walking around the step, and stepping over the top on the other end. An advanced stepper can hop each time over the top and, instead of walking around the step, leap into a half turn or scissor move and hop over the top on the other end. I use many different step videos and work out with them 4-7 days a week, and I really feel it after this workout! The music is a little strange, but I've gotten used to it. It is also obvious which of the two background steppers is Tamilee's favorite, which I find a little humorous.

Definetly the way to get "Buns of Steel", March 21, 2002
This review is from: Buns of Steel 7: Step Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape)
When I initially used this video, I thought that was lousy because, although it did get my heartrate going, I did not feel like it was especially concentrating on my "buns". But the next day, BOY, did I feel it. My bum was so sore. Although the moves are some what monotonous, I think it makes it easier for everyone to follow, while at the same time giving every level of workout junkie a great workout. Tami Lee is a great instructor and the video was well worth it. This would be my suggestion for anyone looking for a great toning and aerobic workout.

This is a challenging, cardiovascular workout, October 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Buns of Steel 7: Step Workout [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is one of the most challenging videos I own, despite the fact that I've been using it for years. Tamilee Webb provides 40 min. of a highly cardiovascular workout that also works the buns. The moves are simple and easy-to-follow, but occasionally boring. If you're looking for a workout that will put you in a sweat within minutes, this is a good one to choose!
