5.0 out of 5 stars "INTENSE", July 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Reebok: Intense Moves [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have been stepping for several years and I still have trouble getting through the thirty minutes of training. This is an amazing workout and I highly recommend it for the advanced steppers!

This tape is not for the weak hearted. If you follow it to a "t", you will get, without a doubt, one of the most challenging step workouts anywhere. It beats most of the hard core step workouts at the gym.

This review is from: Reebok: Intense Moves [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have over 20 step videos, 6 of which are from the Reebok series. Intense Moves is, without a doubt, the most challenging video I own. Don't even think about trying this video yet if you are just starting out because this workout requires tons of stamina. This workout takes you through 10 intervals that push you to the limit of your current endurance level. Gin Miller (one of the best aerobics instructors in the business) starts each interval by showing you a base move and then demonstrates two or three other ways to complete the move that requires more energy. Here are a few examples: in the first interval, you can do a basic over-the top with a jump or you could add a leap before going over-the-top, or, at maximum effort, you can add a lunge back. In interval 4, you can do a ski jump up on top of the bench or you can do a ski jump behind the bench to each side or (at maximum effort) you can ski jump over the bench. Once you have chosen which level you want to work at, you explode into it for one minute. A timer breaks it down into 15-second chunks so you don't have to work at your maximum effort the entire time. After the minute is up, Gin brings you down with a 2-minute "rest" period. You will not be kicking back during these "rest" periods. While you "rest", you will be doing basic aerobics that will build up to the next interval. I've found that the base moves to these intervals (the minimum effort) require power moves (i.e. airborne moves) that are often used as an advanced alternative on other step videos.

This workout is challenging, but it is also fun. You do not repeat the same intervals, so the workout is always fresh and moves very quickly. Plus, Gin Miller is cool and, unlike with some other workout videos, you feel cool using her workouts. Even though this video wears me out, I find myself wanting to pop it in my VCR. I can do higher levels for longer periods of time each time I use it. The entire workout (including warm-up and cool down) is under 50 minutes. I definitely recommend Intense Moves for any intermediate and advanced stepper who wants to improve his/her endurance.
