I have really enjoyed using this video for a change in my workouts. With my other videos I didn't feel like I was working that hard. Since I have started this video, I have lost 5 pounds in the last 4 weeks. It makes me work harder and sweat a lot more. I like the challenge she offers in the video instead of always doing the easy routine. This video was worth my purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complex choreography in a fun way!, January 24, 2007

This review is from: Solid Gold Step (DVD)

I love the fact that most of the music is music that I recognize! The choreography is complex, but she breaks it down for you in the "Move Master" section of the DVD. She also has "Combination Platters," where she will make different combinations of step segments and automatically pairs them with a warm up and a cool down-- you don't have to shuffle around the DVD to find your favorite parts of the workout. A must buy for an aerobic DVD collection!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, except for the cool-down, March 17, 2006

This is the first workout I've tried by Christi Taylor. She has a reputation for fun, advanced, dancy step workouts and she did not disappoint me with "Solid Gold Step". The workout begins with four combos with the step in the standard lateral position. After an exertion check, she moves into four more combos with the step in the vertical position. Each combo is built up and then repeated numerous times. It is complex and a bit tricky, but Christi's cueing is so good you will get most of it OK on your first run-through if you are an experienced stepper. Throughout, the choreography is unique and fun. The music is recognizable, top 40 hits such as a remake of N'sync's "Tearin' Up My Heart".

One good thing about this workout is that there are "Bonus Beauties" by members of Christi's cast. There are individual segments on pilates, abs, squats, etc. that you can add on to your workout or do separately. The "Choreography 101" section of the DVD introduces basic step moves, but is really only useful for absolute beginners to step aerobics.

The only downside to this workout is the cool-down. It is made up of lame, pseudo-hip hop moves and is choreographed to a song by Christi's son. I won't be doing the cool-down in the future. I will, however, use this workout frequently. It is a lot of fun and it really gave me a good cardio workout.
